A little bit about May...


I SHOT MY FIRST paid SESSION WHEN I WAS A YOUNG, NEW MOM who had left the tv biz. NOW, OVER A DECADE LATER, MY DAYS ARE FILLED WITH EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH OWNING YOUR OWN SMALL BUSINESS, WORKING FROM HOME alongside YOUR HUSBAND AND managing the social lives of THREE SCHOOL-AGED KIDS. ADD a PASSION FOR TRAVELING our home state of OREGON (AND THE REST OF THE COUNTRY) IN OUR TRAVEL TRAILER & IT'S A MESSY, BUSY LIFE... BUT IT'S ALL MINE. 


I REALLY ONLY HAVE A HANDFUL OF PASSIONS... SO, THE FACT THAT ONE OF THEM IS MY JOB IS PRETTY SPECTACULAR. THE RUSH THAT COMES WITH CAPTURING A MOMENT JUST THE WAY YOU WANT IS UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE. WATCHING MY CLIENTS CHANGE, GROW AND EXPERIENCE LIFE'S BIG MOMENTS ISN'T SO BAD, EITHER.


I CAN'T WAIT TO MAKE MORE MOMENTS IN 2022, BECAUSE 2020 & 2021 NEED a glow up.

Testimonials

“We met May through friends who used her for their wedding photos. she captured the most epic photos of our wedding and now she's done almost all of our friends' weddings... One summer it seems we saw her eight times! We (now) do photos with our kids every year and she always amazes me by how she's able to get amazing photos of wiggly toddlers & tiny, unpredictable babies.”

“May was referred to me by my friend who raved about her wedding photography skills. From the first meeting with May, we knew she would be the perfect photographer for us. On our special day, she was able to coordinate both sides of the family, calm the nervous groom and dance the night away with the wedding party. And the photos were timeless. She was hands down one of our best decisions on the wedding day. We loved her so much, she was the only choice to document our maternity shoot and our newborn photos!”

“we started (taking photos with May) in 2019 and just knew instantly that we wouldn't try anyone else. The way May got my kiddos to be their authentic selves with smiles that are genuine, it's magic!”

“May is so genuine and easy to work with. She makes us feel comfortable, safe and cute while capturing not only great photos, but also those tiny moments between the staged shots that always end up being our favorites. She has given us the most beautiful permanent reminders of our little boy's first year - I wish we could hire her every month!”
