Reversed Lens Photography Studios specializes in fresh, boutique portraiture for every stage in life. Our passion is capturing the emotion inherent in the human experience-- the first days of babyhood, the jubilance of childhood, the awkwardness and anticipation of the teenage years, the sweetness of love and the beginnings of a life together-- and then translating those moments into heirloom-quality art.

Our blog is a combination of all of those moments. We highlight the latest sessions from our portrait and event work, as well as little glimpses into what drives our creativity and passion. Sometimes that's a product or vendor that we're thrilled to have stumbled into, or it might just be moments from our life that we felt compelled to share.

More than anything, we hope that you'll feel our passion: for beauty, even in the most unexpected places, for uniqueness, but most of all for the true, beautiful joy of real life.

Come see your life through a different lens with us today!

Introducing Lacey • 2011 Southridge High School Senior Rep

There is only one word that I can think of that really describes Lacey: she is SASSY. She’s a total fireball, full of energy and also a total crack-up (you just know that there’s a practical joke or witty thought brewing in her head pretty much 24/7). She was the first of our senior representatives...

Introducing Ellie • 2011 Oregon Episcopal School Senior Rep

We have done most of our senior sessions this year down in the inner SE Portland industrial district, where our studio is located (yes, right in the middle of all of the construction for MAX!), but for Ellie we made an exception. She has a CRAZY schedule– she was just in the school play, she...

Introducing Amanda • 2011 Century High School Senior Rep

We’ve been so busy PHOTOGRAPHING our senior representatives that I haven’t had a chance to BLOG about our senior reps. But we have a whole bunch that are just waiting in the wings to be showcased and I’m thrilled to start with Amanda. We’ve been photographing their family for a couple of years now and...

Sandhya • Oregon Episcopal School Class of 2010

I know that you’re not supposed to play favorites among your clients, anymore than you’re supposed to play favorites among your kids. The latter is easy for me because we only have one tot. But this session with Sandhya was, by far, one of my favorite sessions we have ever done with a senior. She’s...

Megan • Jesuit Class of 2010 • Portland Oregon Senior Pictures

We’ve been getting to know Megan for about a year now. First we did a session with she and three of her best girlfriends, who have all known each other since attending the French American School together. Then she decided to be our senior rep for Jesuit High School this year and we were thrilled....

Erin and Gus • Portland Oregon Engagement and Wedding Photographers

Our associates, Rob and Ryan, will be photographing Gus and Erin’s wedding later this summer and I have to say that I’m a little bit jealous. Gus and Erin are my favorite kind of couple– creative, free-spirited, and fabulously gorgeous. They’re having their ceremony at the Portland Rhododendron Gardens, which is sure to be absolutely...

Ryan & Lola’s First Look • Portland Oregon Wedding Photographers

Ryan and Lola were married last weekend at the Portland LDS temple, and we’ll have their pictures up soon (I promise, Bethany!) But first I had to post some pictures from their first look. Photography is not permitted inside of the temple due to the sacredness of the ordinances, but Lola really wanted to capture...

Introducing Megan • 2010 Jesuit High School Senior Portrait Representative

We met Megan last fall when we photographed her and three of her best friends to celebrate one of their birthdays. We had such a good time with them that we immediately asked if any of them were interested in being reps for us for the 2010 school year. And we were thrilled when both...

Maggie and Patrick • Portland Oregon Wedding Photographers

We’ll be photographing Maggie and Patrick’s wedding in June at the Cornelius Pass Roadhouse, just outside of Portland, which I am totally psyched about. I LOVE this venue and can’t wait to capture their day there. But first, we got to photograph what we like to call the dress rehearsal minus the 500 onlookers, aka...

Tamra and Steve • Portland Oregon Wedding Photographers

We met Tamra and Steve through what seems to be a more and more common mode for us: through work and life. Tamra is a fabulous graphic designer who helped us re-brand RLP last fall, and so it was a natural progression for us to photograph her wedding when she and Steve decided to make...
