Katerina & Adam | A High Grove Farm Maternity Session

I first met Katerina just a few months before her wedding. She wanted to give Adam something special on their wedding day so we planned and executed a pretty rad boudoir session. Needless to say she killed it and made her new husband a very happy man.

About a year later she came to me again with wonderful news, she was pregnant with a baby boy! For her maternity session she wanted to be out in the natural world so we hit the road just west of Portland to High Grove Farm, a beautiful piece of land that will make anyone drool with envy. Together we toured the grounds making our way from the vegetable and flower gardens to the enormous glass greenhouse and finally to the private lake.

It was an honor to document such a special time in Katerina and Adam’s lives. A few moments of joy and anticipation – dreaming of the sweet little life they’re about to bring into the world. Today their sweet boy, Walden, is about as cute as can be and has just started to stand up in his playpen.

general inquiries

The world feels heavy right now. More than ever, we need healing, softness, and moments of peace. We need to hold close the small joys, celebrate the ones we love, and find solace in the beauty around us. 

Lately, I’ve been grounding myself in the simple things—listening to birdsong in the morning, slowing down to be present with my fur babies (especially as we welcome a new puppy), and finding deeper meaning in my work. Because photography, at its heart, is about preserving love, stillness, and joyful abandon—even when the world makes it hard to feel those things. 

Where are you finding peace these days? I’d love to hear. ❤️
