Welcome to Susan Scherr Photography
I’m so glad you’re visiting my site. I hope that you’ll enjoy the variety of images you find here and that we are able to spend some time together shooting your portrait.
As you will see from my various galleries, I enjoy photographing a wide range of subjects and events. I have been shooting senior and family portraits for many years along with the other images you find here.
Although I am in the process of creating an in-house studio, I currently do most of my photography in nature. I work with you to determine what you want and if you have preferred locations. I also use the locations I have selected and have used for previous shoots. We are fortunate that I live on a beautiful salt water beach and have used this for many shoots.
I have purposely kept my photography packages simple and affordable. Upon meeting one another we will work together to create what you want for your images. I am flexible in designing a package which suits your time and financial budget.
P.S. Don’t forget to visit my Fine Art Store. My current love of the night sky and Milky Way images, printed on metal, are there for viewing and purchase.
My Services
Senior Photos/Prom
Senior Portraits Schedule a Fall session for your student’s senior pictures. Yearbook pictures are generally due at this time. You can also schedule a senior session for the Spring. We’ll work together to provide you with as many or as few pictures as you need. Multiple locations and clothing changes are optional.
Sports Photography
I will photograph your child for a one time event providing you with many photographs, or I will photograph your student throughout the school year at the variety of events he or she takes part in. Let me know the location and time of the event and I will take care of the rest. High school and middle school sports, soccer, swimming, t ball, any activity your student or child is loving, I’ll photograph for you. I can create a bound book capturing his/her sporting and educational successes. Example available.
Engagement Photos/Anniversaries
Whether your planning an engagement celebration or prefer photographs taken in that special location where the magic happened, we can do either or both! Call me and we’ll plan the time together. Do you or your parents have a symbolic anniversary approaching? Let me join in the fun and photograph those special moments.
Pet Portraits
Your special animal brings you joy and laughter. Let’s capture its unique personality in an image that you’ll cherish for years. You might have a special park or trail and you’d like to remember all the good times there. Perhaps in your home, the front yard or on a porch. Wherever you like, we can work together. .
Maternity/Newborns
There is nothing more special than the photographs of your time awaiting the arrival of your newborn. And let’s include your other children who don’t want to be left out of the fun. Once your special baby arrives let’s capture him/her from its beginning, and again along the pathway of his/her young life.
Fashion Photography
Do you need professional photographs for your portfolio? Are you working on a career in modeling and need images to promote yourself? There’s nothing more fun than getting together with some friends, dressing up and being silly. And being photographed, just Because. Whatever you decide fashion is for yourself and your friends, I’m all in! I love the open flow of creative and collaborative teamwork. Let me know your ideas and let’s go shoot some images of you and your friends.
Family Portraits
Has it been too long since you’ve had your family pictures taken? It can be fun and easy. It can be total dress-up, or blue jeans and matching t-shirts. Let’s get something scheduled. Fall is a beautiful time providing cool, clear days with plenty of falling leaves. The winter holiday season with all of the decorations can be a great time. Or perhaps in one of the colorful Pumpkin Patches? Let’s combine our ideas and locations and come up with something fun for your family.
Business Photography/Events
Promoting your business through images is very powerful. Let your community know you through those who work for you. It’s also fun for your employee’s to be seen as the core of your business and its successes. Perhaps you have an annual picnic or golf tournament, a great time for company images. We can schedule a session at your place of work or a local park, anywhere that you decide gives your company the best image.
Special Occasions
Already getting together for a special occasion? A family reunion, a symbolic birthday, a celebration of life for a loved one? Perhaps you have an annual family picnic or golf tournament, a great time to record images while everyone is together. Take advantage of that upcoming special event, it’s a great time to capture images of those who have come together in celebration.

WHAT clients say
- Susan is an amazing photographer! She is fun, considerate, thorough and flexible. We had Susan take my son’s senior pictures. They turned out fantastic. She did a fall session and offered a spring session if we wanted. So, in the Spring Susan called and offered, in the spur of the moment, to come over and take prom pics for my son and his beautiful girlfriend. We couldn’t be happier with the pictures. Thank you Susan for always giving 100%! Your work is great and you are a super awesome person. We will continue to call on Susan for our future family experiences.
Tracey Brewer
- Thanks Susan, for coming to Portland to shoot Jason and my engagement pictures. We have always loved our time spent at Cathedral Park and having the pictures shot there was a must for us. You made us feel relaxed and the shoot was so fun! The final pictures are beautiful and so special to us both.
Tamarrah
- Thank you for the extra time you spent with me on my high school pictures. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of the different locations. I especially loved the ones you took with me in the water. It was hard to choose a picture to put into the year book as they were all unique and well thought out.
Kaylee
- My daughter and granddaughter were visiting from out of state and Susan was gracious in agreeing to my last minute request to have her take our pictures. She invited us out to her home which gave us a variety of outdoor options to include a beautiful beach setting. I’m grateful we took the time to capture our time spent as three generations together.
Kandace
- Susan is a true professional and an artist. Outstanding communication throughout the entire process from setting up the shoot to the final editing of the photos. Our family is very active and we asked Susan to come out to take pictures of our boys high school sports playing golf and swimming so that we could have professional photos of them in action. She totally surpassed our expectations with amazing photos that we will cherish for years to come.
