A Little About The Photographer!

Hello everyone! 

My name is Callie Mikesell owner and operator at Callie Mikesell Photography. I am a professional photographer in Portland, Oregon specializing in families, toddlers, seniors, maternity, newborns, weddings, engagments you name it! I have been taking photos for a little over three years now and have developed a huge passion for what I do, capturing special moments in peoples lives is one of the most rewarding jobs anyone could ever have! I love capturing memories that my clients can look back on years from now and it brings them back to that special moment in their life all over again. I feel that taking pictures throughout everyone's life is so important, I love looking back at pictures from my childhood and reminiscing about all those times when I was a mischievous toddler or the times with my family that I don't always remember because I was little. Pictures capture life in such a special way and I am blessed to be able to stand behind the camera and capture these moments for people! I have taught myself almost everything I know at this point about my camera and editing software, it has been a long process but I have come so far over the last few years and have enjoyed learning a lot of new things. I also plan on continuing my education for my photography business by taking some classes and workshops to expand my knowledge even more. I still have a long way to go but I cannot thank all my clients, models, and supporters enough for helping me get this far! Please continue to follow me on my journey as I continue my love for taking pictures!  -Callie Mikesell
