I’m Laura Lupardus, a Portland-based photographer with a love for natural light, vibrant colors, and the little in-between moments that often go unnoticed. My sessions are relaxed and fun, giving you space to just be yourself while I preserve the memories.

My journey with photography began back in high school, where I filled my schedule with media courses. Even while pursuing engineering in college, I made room for photography classes—and I never stopped shooting. Over the past decade, I’ve honed both my technical skills and my creative style, blending artistry with genuine storytelling.

In 2022, I moved from Alaska to Portland and adopted my border collie, Myko, who quickly became both my soul dog and my favorite subject—you’ll spot him in many of my photos. In May 2025, my partner and I welcomed Raven, a blue heeler mix, into our family. Both dogs inspire me daily, reminding me of the joy and authenticity I strive to capture for my clients.

Photography, for me, isn’t just about taking pictures—it’s about creating images that feel alive every time you look back at them. From pets and their people to milestone portraits, I aim to craft photographs that are as genuine as they are beautiful.
