photography is not just a job to me. the fact that i have the opportunity to make new friends, spend time with you in your most precious moments, capture moments for you to share, and establish long-standing relationships inspires me. i fully commit to taking your photos. i am dedicated until we capture the moment. photography has always captured my interest; i started messing around with my grandmother's cameras once I was a teenager and was lucky enough to be a part of an incredible photo & graphics department that helped me continue developing until I graduated high school.
i'm a '90s baby and was born and raised in Oregon! i have never been good at sitting still so i have always worked at least two jobs. along with photography, i am currently a dance teacher at my hometown studio that i grew up in. if you count the years i attended there + the years i have been a teacher, you're looking at 16 years. i teach hip hop to kiddos of all ages. me and my orange kitty named stu live in the salem area. you may see my boyfriend matt hanging around at your shoots as well; we love to adventure and explore new places in OR. the eastern side of the state is definitely our favorite!

Sydney always goes above and beyond to make each session enjoyable. We have trusted her for three of our life's biggest milestones + have her booked again for our wedding. We are never disappointed by her work. Highly recommend for ANY of your photography needs!"
"Sydney did our family photos and did an AMAZING JOB! Our family of 8 took an outrageous amount of dedication and patience from her. Her attention to detail is so incredible and she always makes you feel so comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! I can’t wait for our next session!"
