I have the locations, the outfits, the poses and prompts. Learn more about my client closet here!
Fun to me means absolutely zero stuffy, uncomfortable poses. We’ll get a few “say cheese” photos of everyone looking at the camera, but the majority of our time together will be more spontaneous and relaxed and YOU.
Full-service to me means that I help take the mental load off of you.
I’m here to hold your hand through every step of the photo session journey, so you can stress less and have the family photos of your dreams.
I’ve been a Portland, Oregon family photographer for over 10 years, and it’s absolutely my dream come true. Now that I am a mom, I really truly understand how important it is to capture every fleeting moment and milestone. I also know the chaos that kids bring (I’m a boy mom to two wild ones 👦🏻👶🏻), which is why I am so passionate about offering full-service and fun family photo sessions.
Hi, I’m Lena 👋🏼
Family & Infant Photography in Camas, Vancouver, and Portland

My favorite things.
Psychologists have proven that displaying family photos in homes helps kids’ self-esteem and sense of belonging. I love seeing how your family grows, and it’s a privilege to document each stage for you.
My favorite images are the ones that help us relive moments. Like the oh-so-soft fuzz on your newborn’s head and your giggly, wiggly, silly toddler. If you want the picture-perfect smiley family photo but NEED precious candids that tell your family’s story, I’m the lifestyle family photographer for you.
Investing in family photos is an investment in your family legacy.
