Hi my name is Schona and I am a Longview & Kelso Washington Custom Portrait Photographer. I am a laid back person who enjoys taking photographs, It's not just my job but my passion. I am patient and easy going and want you to be thrilled with the end product. I love kids and want to capture the real smiles not all the fake ones. I just turned 41 this year, to some that is a major thing but to me it just meant more Cake! lol I am married and have 3 cute and very funny kids who are pretty patient with me when I haul out my camera. I get plenty of practice using them to learn new techniques and I get plenty of photos to fill scrapbooks and albums. I love using studio and natural light for portraits. Early morning or an hour till sunset is the perfect time forgreat looking portraits. Our famous overcast here in Washington is also great as it reduces harsh shadows. Posed, candid or both...this is all up to you. Do you have ideas for pictures? Just let me know what you are thinking about and I will do my best to accommodate your requests. I do not have a studio at this time but am willing to go to locations nearby. There are extra charges if you would want to go out of the local area. Longview, WA is a beautiful place to get your next family portrait taken. We have the man made lake in the middle of town, Willow grove for beach shots plenty of wonderful trees and greenery and a cool downtown for those urban shots.
