if you love the mountains, warm summer
days, being out in nature, dark evergreen
trees, camping in God's creation, exploring
new places, majestic waterfalls, neutral and
muted colors...

As long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a wife, mom, and a photographer… and here I am! I married my teenage
sweetheart Nate in 2018 and we have 6 precious children-3 angels in heaven, a little boy Jackson, and 2 little girls Alayna &
Brooklyn. We built our home in the high desert of eastern Oregon. I am definitely an introvert and would much rather be
alone or one-on-one with someone, than be with a group of people. Maybe that's why my close friends are extroverts, that
way I don't have to do any of the talking :) Mountains are one of my favorite things and I will gladly do any photoshoot that
involves them! I am part Scottish and my dream is to one day visit there and see all the breathtaking highlands! I love the
outdoors, camping, waterfalls, going on walks, and exploring new places. So if that is something you want to do for your
photoshoot, I'm all for it! Jesus is the best thing that has happened to me. He gave me a love for capturing life through a lens
and a love for capturing His greatest masterpiece—YOU.

My passion for photography started in 2014 when I bought my first camera. I taught myself how to use it with the help of
YouTube, researching, and LOTS of practice! Several years ago, I took a photography course to improve my skills and it has
made such a difference! I loved photography ever since my first point-and-shoot camera and have never stopped wanting to
capture beautiful images of people and places. In early 2022, we had a traumatic scare and almost lost our 4 month old baby.
Since then, it has made me realize even more how important photos are. You never know when the last opportunity will be
to have pictures with your loved ones, no matter what age they are. I want to be able to provide every single person with
tangible images to treasure for years to come. Photography is so important and I think everyone should have the opportunity
to have beautiful images of their loved ones and their special memories.

First off, I know everyone has a special style they are drawn to. I want you to absolutely love your photos and
especially keep coming back year after year. It is a joy to see the same people again and again! But I also know
that I am not the photographer for everyone and that is totally ok!! You are the one that is putting in the
investment. If my style, prices, or anything aren't exactly what you want, that is completely understandable!

In the season personality quiz, I am a deep autumn color palette and that is exactly my style! I love soft whites,
neutrals and natural skintones. But I also love muted greens and deep color tones, so you most likely will find a
mixture of soft, light colors and darker details in your final pictures. I edit true to life and try to get it as close to
perfect in camera so there is minimal editing done to your photos.

Movement adds life to your photos, so that is a main key in my posing. I'm really trying to lean more toward
prompts instead of actual poses. This allows you to feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Don't worry,
we will still get those nice posed shots, but I want you to feel relaxed to bring out those natural smiles. Just enjoy
this family time and forget that I'm even there!

When you book your session, you get access to a free guide filled with lots of helpful tips, outfit inspo and even
some color palettes! I want you to have a super relaxing time, from the planning to the delivery of your gallery

Mandie was so wonderful to work with. She was so calm and
relaxed. She had many creative ideas and worked with our
very awake newborn. I can hardly wait to see the pictures!

We had a cold, windy day and a three week old baby to work
with during our photoshoot with Mandie. I was happy that we
had communicated about the poses beforehand, and she had
those available for reference during the session. In fifteen
minutes, we had special, professional photos along with fun
memories from the session!
