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.

Some Fun Stuff

January is usually my month for a little R&R to recuperate from a busy years of weddings and portrait sessions. This year is a little exceptional because I really trying to incorporate more family sessions in the website and establish a bit of a style for it. I am so excited about how these turned out! I love love love the lifestyle look and candid feel of them! And I was so impressed at how naturally affectionate they were with each other.
