Hi! I'm Shalina

I am a self taught natural light, lifestyle & portrait photographer based out of Portland, Oregon.  I get the most enjoyment from meeting, connecting with, and capturing memories and important moments for families through my Photography.  Being a mom of two little ladies has made me truly appreciate the simple, routine ongoings of our day-to-day as I try to capture it through their eyes, changing the way that I take photos.  We are most happy when in nature, exploring the back woods of Portland...and eating donuts. Lots of donuts.

Outfits

The struggle is real!  It's hard enough getting your family dressed & out of the house in the morning, let alone for a photo shoot!  

Upon request, I am happy to work with you to pick outfits which make you comfortable, feel your best, and still capture each person's personality!

Backdrop

I love natural light and am a sucker for a gorgeous backdrop. 

I have an arsenal of photo shoot locations for you to pick from, however am always happy to hear about new ones and will travel to any place which has special meaning to you.

Photo Sessions

My main goal is to capture your beautiful family however it is equally important to me that we have a blast doing so! 

​

My packages are flexible to fit your needs, but you will walk away with  beautifully edited, original digital copies of your photos which you can print & share at your leisure.

In a Sea of People my Eyes will always search for You

To find someone that you would like to share a lifetime with is worthy of an epic celebration and I would be more than honored to capture every detail of your most memorable day.  I will take the utmost care leading up to and on the big day to make sure I understand what is important to you, ensuring you get photos that really capture the essence of your love.  

Hello World!

Nothing compares to the excitement of growing your sweet babe, waiting anxiously to see who baby will look like, and anticipating how those first weeks, months, years will go.  Growing your family is by far the biggest life change and suddenly time starts to speed by.  I absolutely love capturing these first few moments for a new family; babies soft & fuzzy arm hair, wrinkly little fingers, excited big sister squeezes, curious fur-babies, glowing mamas, and proud papas.  

Let's Collaborate!

I have a strong affinity for small businesses, especially ones run by bad#$$ mamas!  Have partnered with a number of visionary ladies who I strongly admire to provide product & lifestyle imagery helping them to gain an online presence.  From gorgeous, handmade, high-quality toddler clothing to vibrant lifestyle shots for a mom blog.  Would love to hear your story and aspirations to see how we could work together!
