how it all started

The birth of my photography business started with a different birth. The one of my daughter! Shortly after I graduated from Portland State University with my bachelors in Graphic Design, my husband and I were blessed with a beautiful baby girl named Mila. After Mila joined us, I bought a decent camera and started photographing her every month and posting the photos online for family and friends. I soon fell in LOVE with photography and knew I needed to continue learning this amazing art form. After a while I was contacted by various people asking if I could do photos for their family and babies and then, BOOM! SK Photography was born! I had every intention of using that graphic design degree I paid so much money for, but photography found ME and made me happy.

I'll never forget the first time an old high school friend messaged me and wanted me to photograph her small backyard wedding. I was BEYOND nervous and humbled that she trusted me to capture such precious moments. After that one wedding I was HOOKED.  I knew I wanted to continue photographing weddings for the rest of my life! (Or as long as this body of mine will let me!) Nothing compares to the magic of capturing two souls uniting in love forever. I cry at every single wedding I shoot  and I hope I always do. I capture your memories as if there were my own and I love that I'm creating small time capsules for my clients to look back on with their family and friends for years and generations to come.
