Salem Documentary Photograhy . . . Funeral Coverage.

As you may or may not know, I recently started doing funeral photography. I have a separate website for this business, but thought I would mention it here.

Information about Kel Ward Memorial Photography can be found at www.kelwardmemorial.com.

I offer photojournalistic style coverage for funerals, memorial, and wakes. I am located in Salem, Oregon and serve the surrounding areas, but am also available for travel. 

Here are a few photos from a recent memorial. 

Family shots are available before and/or after the service.

Attention to detail is important.

Salem Film Photographer . . . I love him.

Salem Family Photographer | A day at the beach.

Loved this session and completely adore this family. 

End of story.  

Portland Child Photographer | Two.

You may recognize this girl from my post a couple of days ago. She's the big sister to newborn twin boys. She's such a doll, though, that I felt she needed her own blog post. She's only 2, but seems much older. Not only is she tall, but she's very verbal and smart. 

A few film shots...

Lovin' on her mama.

Salem Photographer | Hanging out at the cemetery.

Salem Portrait Photographer | Haunting Film Shot.

I captured this beautiful little girl on film recently. 

Her instructions were "Stand here and do whatever you want. Smile, not smile, whatever you want." and she gave me this stunning expression. 

Salem Model Photographer | Sunshine.

It was a pleasure working with the beautiful Miss Porshe. 

We worked together on styling this session and I love how it turned out.

Oh, are you wondering why it looks so beautiful and sunny while there are blizzards around the country? That is because this is from early fall and I'm just now getting around to blogging it. I'm kind of a slacker when it comes to blogging, in case you haven't noticed. 

This session was a combination of digital and film, including 

multiple film cameras and formats. 

Just a few "artsy" shots, taken with one of my vintage cameras...
