She was comforting and at the same time fun and worked quickly, but knew how to pivot for best lighting and background details. She also stepped up to coordinate smaller group shots for our formal sitting and our party. She has exceptional photography skills and the perfect warm inviting personality to come in to any situation (large families can have complexities) and navigate the room to bring out the BEST in everyone. Extraordinary!!!!

Technology Association of Oregon used Jason DeSomer to photograph two events in 2016 - Oregon…read moreTechnology Awards in May and Party in the Pinot in July. We were blown away by his shots. His images capture the spirit of our events and eliminate the contrived photos that are typical of awards ceremonies and outdoor events. He is extremely professional, and non-intrusive while interacting with guests. He captures the moment at our events in so many different ways we can't quite figure out how he got from here to there in that amount of time - but its impressive. And he provides our photos quickly so we can send them out to our community in a timely manner. In 2017 we booked early to lock down those two events, and two more our Kickoff Party in January and Kickball Tournament in August. When planning events you are always looking for great vendors who, in addition to providing stellar service, make your life easier the day of the big event. Jason DeSomer does this, and I can't recommend his services enough.

Jason was everything I was looking for in a photographer, and more!…read more I was searching for a photographer online and Jason's work stood out to me because he has an eye for great camera angles and subject placement, and his photos were very crisp and clear with great lighting and editing (something I found lacking in many others' portfolios). When I emailed him, his quotes were clear and reasonable, and he outlined everything in detail. I was modeling some outfits for a photo shoot in my house. Thankfully, Jason had a lot of great ideas for posing and I already knew the photos would turn out amazing! (I've done shoots with other photographers where I was given no direction and most of the photos came out awkward or meh). I was very happy with the shoot and the photos I received. I would definitely work with Jason again, and recommend him to anyone needing quality photos!

Tara is fun, creative and professional! Let's face it, few…read moreof us love to be in front of the camera. Tara can make you feel at ease and make the session fun. She embraces the non-perfect poses or moments and skillfully creates a lasting memory of real-life joy. I believe you must meet your photographer in person before hiring them. You're letting this person into your family circle and probably feeling insecure or vulnerable about having your picture taken. You need to know you'll be comfortable with that person in your personal space. MEET with Tara. You will LOVE her. You will LOVE the photos she takes of you and your family. You don't need a reason to document important milestones. Do it for yourself. Do it for the memories. Do it for your ancestors. Do it for the fun! Whether you need a new professional headshot, a family photo for the annual holiday card, or if you lost weight, got engaged, had a baby or simply because you changed your hair color, I highly recommend hiring Tara Thackeray to be your personal photographer!

If you want stunning photos and a reliable photographer look no further. We were out of state and…read morenever been to Oregon before but had a vision of what we wanted. Kyle was able to help us find a location for everything, planned that day and helped us set up a timeline! If you want a professional that is going to be calm, organized and roll with the punches, Kyle is your guy! He made us feel welcomed and even helped reassure us throughout the day! Onto the photos themselves, Kyle has an eye for capturing candid shots, flattering lighting to direct your eye and setting the mood in the photos. We will forever cherish the photos you documented on our big day. We absolutely enjoyed Kyle's presence during our small dinner party as he was able to keep us laughing, having great conversations, and amazing Oregon recommendations! Thank you for everything!

We reached out to Kyle after he did such a great job with our friends' wedding photos a couple…read moreyears ago. When we contacted him, he was very responsive. At our first meeting, he was enthusiastic, organized, and asked all kinds of questions to better understand our vision. The day of the ceremony, he helped us add structure to our pre-ceremony process by nailing down clear portrait timelines for each of us. He has an upbeat and easy-going attitude, which helped both of us feel comfortable while posing for portraits. And further, he clearly has a great eye and improvises well, because he was able to incorporate what might have otherwise looked like a mundane neighborhood setting into beautifully lit, unique photos. Kyle took all kinds of creative, moment-catching candid shots during our ceremony and reception that we couldn't be happier with. When we showed our wedding photos to friends and family afterwards, they consistently expressed surprise and delight at how Kyle was able to capture so many nuanced moments without being intrusive. TL;DR: We love all of our wedding photos and are so grateful to Kyle for sharing his talents with us! If you're looking for someone who is detail-oriented and ready to celebrate with you, we highly recommend Kyle!

I sat on my wedding day crying because I had no photographers. No one responded and when I did I got an email saying we never confirmed the date.

She made thoughtful suggestions about locations, her pricing was very reasonable for her level of talent and skill, and her availability was quick and flexible. I had to reschedule and adjust plans, and she was nothing but supportive and helpful throughout the process. Despite spending more time with me, she honored the original quote, which speaks volumes about her integrity and professionalism. The photo session itself was wonderful--easy, efficient, and very professional. Tija has a true artistic eye and provided great direction and suggestions. We accomplished so much without ever feeling rushed. She delivered the images promptly, within one week, and exceeded my expectations by far. The photos were polished, high-quality, and professional--many were so well done that I could use them without any edits. For the images I did want retouched, she handled them quickly and beautifully. Tija is a fantastic, generous, talented, punctual, reliable, and kind photographer. You truly won't find a better one. Highly recommend!
