heyya! i’m dana!

I’m a lifestyle portrait and landscape photographer based in the PNW. When I’m not behind the camera, I like to spend my time cooking, reading, and spending time outside with my hubby, Kory, our friends, and our pup Socks. I love documenting and sharing the people, places, and experiences that make my heart happy!

a few of my favorite things

• Staying up way too late to watch the stars

• Losing track of time on mountain back roads

• Kayaking, swimming, & playing in the water

• Being barefoot

• Incandescent lighting

• Watching thunder & lightning storms

• Picking wildflowers & huckleberries

• Mountain meadows

• Camping & hiking & just plain ol’ being outside

• The smells of the holidays

• Waking up early to catch the sunrise

• Going to farmers markets

• All genres of music

• Drinking coffee & tea

• Curling up with a good book

• Eating pickled foods

• All four seasons!

We all have a life worth documenting.

When you look back at this chapter of your life I want the the memories and feelings of happiness and joy to rush back to you. It’s not just getting your pictures taken; it’s having an experience that you enjoy! It’s the laughs we have, the beautiful places we go, & the adventures we have on our sessions. I'm inspired by true emotional connections, the glow of the evening sun, & the great outdoors. I believe in documenting moments of our authenticity - the messy, the goofy, the intimate - so that these memories will live on for lifetimes.

hey there
