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.

Gracie and Patrick

Yesterday I got to meet Gracie, Patrick, and Teresa (mom).  Teresa is a cousin of Rebecca, my assistant.  It was really neat to be able to try a few new things since the shoot was for the purpose of building my portfolio.  We didn’t push very hard to get the standard images with the kids looking at the camera, but we focussed more on the letting the kids do what they wanted and took pictures.  It was really fun!

Rebecca - Very Sweet!!! It is very hard to choose my favorites. For sure, Patrick with his red blanket...up close shot. For Grace, I think my favorites are #1 & #10, but there are sooo many cute ones. I actually am really starting to like the one with them touching foreheads. And I am very happy there is no chocolate crossaint on Grace's face :)April 13, 2008 - 5:26 am
