There is a profound beauty in documenting the threads that connect us to our heritage. For this recent family photo shoot in Hillsboro, Oregon, we had the incredible honor of capturing a family dressed in traditional Korean Hanbok. The vibrant colors, structured silhouettes, and rich textures of the Hanbok provided the perfect canvas for the editorial photography style we love.

Over the last several years, I have seen drastic changes here in the greater Portland metro area. With so many vibrant new developments, it is no surprise that more and more growing families are choosing to reside in what truly feels like the best state ever—and as a local photographer, I completely approve of this message!
