A little PSA about choosing your photographer…

I’m Hilary — a wedding and portrait photographer who believes your photographer should be more than just the person holding the camera. My style is natural, true-to-color, timeless, and classy. I focus on capturing the real moments, the genuine emotions, the happy chaos, and all the little details that make your wedding or session, yours. And when I deliver your gallery, you get the keepers - ALL of them. I’m not going to make you pick a select few, and then send the rest off to live on a deserted island. I also believe affordable and high-quality can absolutely exist in the same sentence. I keep my pricing competitive because I live in the same real world you do — where groceries cost more than rent and apparently everything requires a second mortgage these days. 🫠
But here’s something I value even more than pricing: the relationship and the fit; Especially for weddings because your photographer is going to be with you through some of the biggest, most emotional, exciting, and occasionally chaotic moments of your day. If I feel like we don’t align in expectations, or overall vibe, I’d rather be honest and recommend someone who may be a better fit than take the business simply because I want the paycheck. So if you’re looking for natural, timeless, high-quality images without the “I hope you’re sitting down” price tag… and you want a photographer who takes your memories seriously but doesn’t take herself too seriously…

Spent this evening capturing a sweet mini session for a couple, whom I happen to adore. They have a very special announcement coming soon, and I’m so honored to have documented this exciting chapter for them. More images to come, but for now, enjoy this sneak peek! 😉

One of my baby girls/our youngest. She wanted a Fall photo session with her and a couple of her friends. I will post more later with them all, but these are a few I took of her.

That’s a wrap on me capturing this high school volleyball season of WSH Varsity as well. This past Tuesday night was an exciting one! Varsity is truly a different caliber, sweeping McNary HS in 3 straight sets! 🧹💪🏼
It was also Senior Night/Youth Night, with the spotlight shining on WSH Varsity’s one and only senior, who also is an AMAZING setter!
Next up: Playoffs! But first Play In. Come cheer them on this Saturday at Noon, at WSH and show these girls some love!
I grabbed a few shots of McNary during this last game, too. Our loyalty is with WSH, of course, but I can still say McNary has one hell of a team!
A huge thank-you to everyone who supported me and my photography this season! Don’t stop here, though! Check out my portfolio (link to website in bio) and keep me in mind if you or someone you know ever needs a photographer. 📸🫶🏻 West Salem High School McNary High School

10/20/26 WSH JV vs McNary JV. What a nail biter of a game, with a point spread of 1-2 points nearly the entire game! McNary walked away the winners of this final game of the season for WSH JV. Yep-just like that, the WSH JV season is over. 😭 I’m going to miss it all, but my younger daughter is just starting her middle school volleyball season, and club season is just around the corner for both our daughters. There is a different feel to each one. So proud of this team; especially my daughter (yes, I’m biased 😂). It’s been so much fun watching them grow and play their hearts out. A huge thank-you to the coaches for all the time, effort, and heart you put into these girls. You’re appreciated more than you know and you will always be a part of their journey! (Photos in this post are of JV only and there is a photo of each player on the team.) West Salem High School

WSH vs SSH 10/15/26-WSH JV came away with wins over SSH, while SSH Varsity took the win over WSH! It was SSH’s Senior Night, recognizing the seniors (who are players) who will be graduating this school year. It’ll be interesting to see how SSH Varsity looks next season with two of their top players graduating. 🤔
Next up is WSH Senior Night / Youth Night! WSH will recognize our one senior in the volleyball program, and students wearing their school shirt get in FREE. This will be the final game of the season for most of the volleyball teams at WSH (Varsity still has playoffs to get through). So if you’re reading this, and you don’t have any other engagements, come show your support and help finish the season strong! 🏐💪🏼

WSH vs McKay High 10/13/26: WSH JV and Varsity both won their games against McKay for the second time this season! Whoot! Just a couple more games to go in the high school season, with next week being the final week. Going to miss all the fun and excitement, but thankfully, Middle School volleyball is just getting started in our household, and club tryouts are only a month away! Yaaas!
Next up: Tonight WSH is at SSH! Go Titans! 💚💪🏼🏐

WSH vs NSH 10/7. Winning! 🙌🏻💪🏼🏐🔥Both JV and Varsity took care of business against NSH again, just like they did at the beginning of the season! Special thanks to NSH for bringing the competition! 😉
Next up: JV tournament tomorrow at Sprague HS! Come on down if you don’t have anything better to do and cheer on your WSH Titans!💚🏐 West Salem High School
