I believe in photographs that matter long after social media and holiday cards. Images meant to be held, passed down, and lived with—ones that grow more meaningful as time passes.
I approach every session with intention, not chasing trends but creating images that last. With gentle guidance and space for real connection, I document families as they truly are.
Your photos should feel like you—honest, connected, and true to this season of life. Meaningful now, and even more priceless for your children one day.
Because your family’s story deserves to be remembered in a way that feels real and timeless.

Family Photos That Mean Something.
For over seven years, I’ve been honored to serve families in the Corvallis and Salem areas, photographing maternity, newborn, and family stories. I’m an Oregon photographer, wife, and mom who loves Jesus, good books, and long walks. The beauty of connected families and quiet, meaningful moments has always drawn me in. It’s the small moments—the ones that often pass too quickly—that inspire my work. From growing bellies and new babies to births and everyday life with your family, I believe these seasons are deeply worthy of being documented and remembered.
Hi, I'm Kenzi.
Believer, Mom of 3 & Photographer
Whatever your family is, I’m here to capture it. Serving Salem, Corvallis, and the whole Willamette Valley.
We had the absolute best experience with our daughter’s newborn photos. From start to finish, Kenzi was so kind, patient, and incredibly gentle, which made the entire session feel comfortable and stress-free. She truly knows what she is doing — every pose, every detail was handled with confidence and care. She made the whole process smooth and enjoyable, and somehow managed to make all of us look flawless. We are beyond happy with the photos and will cherish them forever. Highly recommend!

We are beyond grateful for Kenzi - she has been a meaningful part of documenting our families milestones - our sons birthday each year, our holiday photos and most recently maternity and newborn. We've had pictures in a multitude of settings including studio, in-home, and outdoor sessions, and every one Kenzi helped us feel comfortable gently guiding us which makes each session nice and stress-free. She is incredibly kind, patient and truly passionate about what she does - which shines through in her work. She has captured some of our families biggest milestones and are memories we'll have and cherish forever. We trust her completely with our most special milestones and couldn't recommend her more to anyone looking for a heartfelt and talented photographer.

Kenzi gets the shot every time. She has photographed our extended family, both maternity chapters in our life, both newborn shoots, and multiple holiday mini shoots for us. I can say with confidence she knows how to capture family memories and has provided my family with snapshots of moments in our lives that we will cherish forever. Her ability to always get the little smile that shows itself only briefly during a moody toddler moment is uncanny. We love working with Kenzi - her photography skills are a gift to this world.

I couldn’t recommend Kenzi enough! We’ve used her for several family photo sessions now, and she absolutely nails it every time. Not only is she incredibly kind, but she’s amazing with kids — she somehow makes what can be a stressful experience with little ones feel completely effortless. We always walk away with the best experience and beautiful photos we’ll treasure forever.

We LOVE having Kenzie do our family photos. She is incredible with young children and even though I was stressed about how my kids might be during photo time she was able to keep moral high and catch all of our good sides, as well as communicate well with me before and after photos were taken. I will treasure the family photos she has done for us forever!
