{Portraits} Stewart Family

I love so many things about this session! The new location, the dreamy golden sunset, and getting to be with one of my favorite families! I’ve been photographing them for years, since before their littlest guy was even born, and I’m so thankful for the opportunity to watch their family grow. If you’d like to book a session at this new location, drop me a message HERE.

Aren't these fun?!  I love the lifestyle vibes, I love that they are perfectly imperfect.  I love the "THIS IS US" vibes.

If you missed it, here are all the details on this project:

And They All Stayed Home
A Front Porch Portrait Project

I am offering FREE photo sessions to all families in my community. We are living in strange times, but the silver lining of this all is that we can be home with our families. This session is a way to document your family during this historical event. I am excited to bless my community in a small way and bring some joy to others.


- I will come to your home and do a 10-15 minute photo session in front of your home, your porch, driveway, or street (whatever inspires me the most and has the best light!)

- You will receive a proof gallery from me and will be able to choose ONE digital image from our time together.

- For anyone that would like to make a donation to me, either in cash or through paypal, you will receive all your images from our time together (a 15 minute session with all the images included is normally a $225 value)

- I will set up a time to come to your home, give you tips on how to prepare yourself and your home for the best session, I just need your email to get the process started. A simple contract must be completed.

At this time I am serving St Helens, Scappoose, Warren, and Columbia City areas, if you are in a different area like Rainier, Tigard, Wilsonville, Hillsboro, I would love to come to your community if you have neighbors that are wanting to do this too!

I am so excited to start this. If you are interested please comment with your email, message, or email me at heidihelser@gmail.com

Please feel free to share this post and spread some joy to your neighbors and friends. I hope to see you all soon!

Alvarez Family {Newborn}

I loved getting to spend time with this adorable and sleepy little guy! The best part about on location lifestyle newborn sessions is getting to incorporate your family’s home as the backdrop for your priceless portraits. Using your family bed, your living room, your new baby’s nursery… personalizes the session and makes the memories even more special. If you are expecting and want to chat about an in-home newborn session, reach out via the CONTACT page!

Summer Sessions!

2020-02-18_0002.jpg

Summer is going to be here before we know it and its the PERFECT time to schedule your family session.

Here are a few reasons why:

  • You'll get that golden hour glow that we all love so much.

  • You'll be tan!

  • You don't have to buy shoes to match your outfits!  Go barefoot and be comfy!

  • You can use your summer portraits for your Christmas cards and Christmas gifts.

  • The chances of having to reschedule because of weather are really low.

  • There is a wider variety of poses to be done because the ground isn't wet.

  • You can schedule on a weekday evening at 7pm and it won't interfere with your work day.

  • You can choose a location by the water and splash around at the end of your session.

  • It's gorgeous!

If you are interested in summer portraits, I am having a weekday special on full sessions.  On select Wednesday evenings in June, July, and August, I will be offering $25 off full, classic portrait sessions.  If you want to take advantage of this offer, please reach out to me via the Contact page and I will get you all set up!

{Cakesmash} Olivia

2020-02-12_0001.jpg

I've been kind of obsessed with cake smashes lately! 

When Jen scheduled her family photos she let me know she wanted to do a cake smash at the end to celebrate Olivia's first trip around the sun.  I asked if she wanted a theme and we ran some ideas past each other,  we settled on BOHO BUNNY for the theme. 

We spent about an hour together for our session, first we captured traditional portraits and then we did a quick outfit and set change and ended with some nursing images and an adorable cake smash.  It's so fun to customize a session for a client.  One of the perks of booking a full, classic portrait session is that I can take the time during our session to really get a full spectrum of images, there can be outfit changes, props, and a really wide variety of images are given in a session.  Plus you get ALL the images in color and black and white. 

If you are wanting to book a cake smash session, let me know and we work together to create an adorable set up for your little one!
