The fading light has been creating some great lighting for senior sessions. Especially the one with Juniper last night!

Bringing along her skates, playing around the Academy, and walking along the waterfront are always fun ways to capture your senior's light.

Every school has different due dates and requirements for photo submissions. So make sure to check those soon and get your soon-to-be graduates scheduled for a session that highlights them.

Let's face it, media is changing and video is in demand. Specifically reels for your social media.

But how arenauppose to keep up with it all?

That's where my monthly branding subscriptions come into play. Not only can we create static images for your use, but I am now offering short reels as part of the packages.

Are you ready to step up your professional appearance?

Let's grab a coffee and chat.

More venue cats, please!

Vintage Gardens Rustic Events has two beauties that make themselves at home during the reception. Perfectly polite, and even escorted some of the kids out into the field to play.

It’s the wide world that calls to us, but it’s the quiet partnership that makes the journey worth taking.

Amanda and Jonah’s engagement session in the Columbia Gorge felt like the start of a classic story. We ducked under heavy branches in a historic apple orchard, skipped along the Columbia, and laughed as the wind rolled off the towering hills above.

I got to capture their engagement session while the sun was setting last night, and it was magical. Can't wait for their wedding.

It's that time of year where we are all guessing what the weather will do. But here in the PNW, we'll have a wedding no matter what!

Mia and Tyler did just that on Saturday!

With a 7 pm ceremony, we dodged most of the shifty weather, with just some sprinkles at the reception. But we also got some pink skies as we wrapped up the ceremony.

These two threw a PARTY in their parent's backyard with their friends, family, and of course, the neighbors. Because who is going to file a noise complaint when everyone is there?

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

I am making a decision that may not be popular, may impact my business, and may change the way I have shared my work — but protecting children matters more.

Missy Fant Photography will no longer post identifiable images of children on this photography page. Signed release or not.

I cannot, in good conscience, continue putting identifiable images of children online while our legal system is making decisions that leave me deeply disturbed about where the line of protection is being drawn.

I strongly condemn the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling regarding the private possession of AI-generated CSAM depicting fictional children. Whatever legal arguments may surround this case, I find the idea that material depicting the sexual abuse of children can receive constitutional protection absolutely horrifying.

We should be moving toward stronger protections for children — not weaker ones.

AI has created dangers that were unimaginable just a few years ago. Images of real children can be manipulated, altered, and exploited in ways that families never intended or consented to. A signed release does not change my responsibility to think beyond the piece of paper.

So I am choosing to do what I can.

I will not wait for another law, another ruling, or another tragedy to tell me that I should have done more.

Over the next week, I will be working on cleaning up my photography pages and removing identifiable images of children that have previously been posted.

This is bigger than photography.
This is bigger than business.
This is about protecting children.

I will always try to live on the correct side of history, even when doing so is difficult, inconvenient, or costly.

My clients trust me with their memories. Children deserve my protection. And their safety will ALWAYS come before my business.

I'm just here to announce that my favorite season is coming and I am SO EXCITED!

And yes, I am one of those folks that use Halloween decorations as year round decorations in my house (and a few in studio).

Throwback to an engagement at the Lone Fir Cemetery last year (I am so stoked to photograph their wedding in November this year)

Adults will tell you what to do forever. Senior year? This is your call.

When Laken said they wanted Lucia Falls for their backdrop, we went all in.

The rulebook for your session? There isn't one:

Pick the spot you actually care about

Wear whatever makes you feel unstoppable

Show up as you are—we’ll handle the rest

Lily | HELA Class of 2027

Standard backdrops, sterile studio lighting, and forced, polite smiles miss the entire point. Your life isn’t a generic script, and you don’t need to perform for the camera. You're standing at the threshold of your own epic journey—one shaped by the records you spin, the back alleys you wander, and the wild, loud, or quiet things that make you feel alive.

My approach is dead simple: I meet you where you are. No stiff posing, no awkward pretenses, and zero pressure to be anyone other than who you already are. We hit the pavement, track down the vibrant street art, get lost in record store aisles, or run out into wide-open spaces to make something that actually feels like you.

I didn’t start out photographing people. For years, it was just me, the quiet wilderness, and the sweeping ridgelines of the Pacific Northwest. I was obsessed with the grandeur of the landscape—the sweeping, ancient backdrops that make you feel gloriously small.

Then my brother-in-law challenged me to shoot his wedding.

Stepping into that world shifted everything for me. I realized that a magnificent backdrop is breathtaking on its own, but placing raw, honest human connection right in the middle of it? That’s where the real magic happens.

Every great story isn't just about the vast, open road—it’s about the quiet courage of the traveler taking the first step. That perspective shapes every single session I shoot. I don’t just want to take a portrait; I want to ground your story in the beauty of the world around us, celebrating the light that exists in you exactly as you are.

Here’s a favorite frame from a recent senior session in the Columbia River Gorge. Wind, wild views, and a whole new chapter waiting just over the horizon.

Whether your next adventure is tucked in the pines of the PNW or waiting across the map, I’m ready to pack my bags and tell your story. Where are we heading next?
