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.

About the Blog-site

featuring my latest photo sessions, tips for photographers, ideas to make your pictures better, and tidbits about my life all randomly jumbled together. Using "categories" on the top menu can help you isolate your interest. If you like what you see, add me to your subscriptions to get the latest updates to the blog. Also I love comments! I read them all and try to reply to everyone.

So, I am starting to do something a little different.  I just got this really amazing storefront to host all my sessions at http://missy.instaproofs.com/.  As soon as your event is posted, you can sign up for an automated email to tell you when the pictures are ready to look at and it’s a really fun and easy way for me to do some really cool stuff like, oh I don’t know, run sales.  Yes sales!  I have never been able to do it so easily so jump on over and sign up to see the rest of these images!!

I feel so lucky to have some of the most beautiful countryside 15 minutes from my house!  I am also extremely blessed to have such a good looking couple to take pictures of in the beautiful Oregon country.  We even saw some peacocks running wild, which was really cool!
