Viral Cat Videos

Whether you admit it or not it's safe to assume that you have watched a few cats videos in your time. Am I right? Of course I am. Everybody loves a good photo or video of a furry feline being stripped of it's dignity for the amusement of it's owners. Nothing cracks up a room full of should be working employees like a video of a cat being startled by a cucumber or perhaps a fat tabby riding a Roomba.

The Wallace Family

They were running around having a blast tossing a giant photo reflector around like a Frisbee and generally doing what kids do. At this point mom and dad were a little concerned but honestly with high energy children it's all about directing the energy rather than trying to stop it. The most genuine smiles come from when kids are having fun. So I occasionally start a game of catch with my reflectors because the kids can't hurt them. After that the kids realize I'm there to play it changes the whole dynamic of the shoot.

Senior Portraits with Miss Bailey

After we rattled around in the alleys of downtown Albany Oregon, we went in search of a giant puddle. Why? So we could jump in it of course! Senior Pictures can be anything you want them to be.
Some seniors come to us knowing exactly what they want from thier senior pictures and I love that! There is nothing more exciting then being able to create with the client! I love the creative energy that flows when two people are on the same creative page.

Troutman Photography: Location Location Location

Indoor portrait sessions with Troutman Photography come with some very convenient perks that no other studio in the Willamette Valley offers. Let’s look at why our location is good for you.
Having our studio in such a beautiful building allows me to combine the freedom of outdoor photography with the predictability of a studio. We place our clients in a real world environment, not a 10 ft background and photograph their family interacting naturally as they would outdoors. This give us all of the benefits of an outdoor session without having to be concerned about the weather or worried about things - like traffic.

Downtown Day with Nathan in Albany

Over the last decade I photographed Mr. Nathan several times and had the pleasure of watching a chubby cheeked toddler turn into the young man you see here. I had the pleasure of connecting early on with him and he and his family are on my list of life-long friends friends. I love it when Nathan pops in once a year for pictures, because at this point were just two friends hanging out while taking the occasional photograph.
