Missy Cochran Oregon Photographer bio picture

This is Me

Hi there! I am Missy Cochran and I love photography, I fact, you could say that I am obsessive. It all started when I got married and had my wonderfully awesome grandpa take my pictures. He was a professional photographer and I thought all photographers were the same. After the wedding, I got the pictures back and they were all very traditional. Not grandpa’s fault, but mine for not knowing what I wanted. Anyway, I realized too late that I had actually wanted something different than what I got. Since my wedding is all over, I now get to live vicariously through my awesome couples. Other stuff about me is that I make a goal every three months to run regularly, but haven’t yet quite found my mojo. I think I like the idea of being a runner but maybe I am not really one at heart! I love sweets and I love my church and doing things that add joy to my life.

Jasmine and Jordan

Saturday, March 29, 2008 Posted in Children

These are from the session we did today. Jasmine was really shy and we weren’t able to convince her that it would be fun to spin in her pretty white dress. We even tried music She was happy to smile, and we got tons of great images. Poor Jordan missed her nap this morning, but really loved the bubble bath and trying to stand up in the tub. The last two images I think would be fun for samples here in the studio (I really need to get some for my walls!)

This is a collage I made using some fun images of Jasmine. I am contemplating making a canvas sample of this because it is so cute and full of life! The debate in my mind is between this composite and the image below that I think would look really cool with a wild sorbet frame.
