Elevate + Grow: A Portland Adventure with the Kelley Family
Oh, Portland, you left me amazed! As a Portland family photographer Chicago residents (and Oregonians!) can trust for soulful storytelling, I had the honor of capturing the Kelley family during the Elevate + Grow workshop
I’ve admired Jayme for a long time. Ultimately, the entire weekend felt like a soul-filling experience.
Specifically, seeing these kiddos so in their element was wonderful. They evoked that lovely family love and so much darn fun! Brian is such a lucky dude to be surrounded by so much beauty. This family encompasses everything you want clients to be and more. Consequently, capturing them alongside so many talented friends was the highlight of my trip.
The Heart of a Portland Family Photographer from Chicago
Traveling for photography allows me to see the “rhythm” of family life in entirely new landscapes. Whether I am documenting a morning in the Pacific Northwest or a sunset in Oak Park, my goal remains the same: to preserve your visual legacy. Because I value documentary storytelling, I focus on the chaos and the beauty of real life.
Basically, I don’t want to just take a picture; I want to tell a story. As a result, these workshop sessions aren’t just for practice. They are a way for me to refine my craft so I can better serve my clients back home and across the country. Being a traveling family photographer from Chicago means I am always ready to follow a story, no matter where it leads.
Mentoring and Growth in Photography
If you are a photographer looking for mentoring and education, these workshops are a testament to the power of community. Specifically, learning from peers like Jayme helps me bring fresh energy to every session I lead. If you are a family looking for a traveling family photographer from Chicago to join you on your next adventure, I would love to connect. Let’s capture the magic of your family in a place that feels like you.
