Baby George: Newborn /Family/Documentary Photographer: Silverton, OR

It’s such a treat for me when I get to photograph my friends and their families. Even if it means getting up early in the morning to travel 4 hours from Tacoma to Silverton, OR. I love it! Because I was also there to visit with my friend Megan and meet her new baby George, I was there much longer, which meant extra photos and even a short video of George and big sister, Nora. I spent one on one time just with Nora, to make sure she felt special, since so much focus often falls on new babies. She was a bundle of energy. I love creating playful photos that capture the true essence of a child. Then we just got some laid back photos of them doing there thing. Later we did portraits and then more play at the park. I wish everyone had this kind of time for photos. Not only because you capture some of the best photos, but moving slowly through the process makes it so much easier for babies and kids.

If you are interested in a newborn and family session, you have different options to choose from when it comes to style and approach. We can shoot in a documentary style, where I just capture you and your family in your element. We can shoot lifetyle which is a mix and portrait and natural photos. You can also keep it to strictly portraits. It really depends on how you want to remember these special moment.

If you would like to see their family film you can watch it HERE.

    Sliding Scale Guidelines

    you will have the option to choose between Low Budget and Regular. For this model to work you need to be honest with yourself and your financial situation. But while I ask you to consider these factors, please don’t stress about them. Pay what feels right. I will not ask questions or quiz you on your payment choices

    Consider paying less on the scale if you:

    • are a person who experiences discrimination due to systematic oppression
    • have medical expenses not covered by insurance.
    • are eligible for public assistance
    • are an unpaid community organizer
    • are supporting children, family members in need or have other dependents
    • are an elder with limited financial support

    Consider paying more on the scale if you:

    • own the home you live in
    • have investments, retirement accounts, or inherited money
    • travel recreationally
    • have access to family money and resources in times of need
    • work part-time by choice
    • have a relatively high degree of earning power due to level of education, gender privilege, racial privilege, class background, etc. Even if you are not currently exercising your earning power, I ask you to recognize this as a choice.

     

    If you would like to share these thoughts please feel free to do so. You can use the visual and also share my words. I only ask that you give credit as I do. My words were inspired by Alexis J. Cunningfolk, Meghan Gilmore, Claire Louise Travers, Ride Free: Fearless Money, Margeaux Feldman. Andrea Vollgas
