Mary’s Peak: Family Photography
May, 2021
Mary’s Peak is an incredible location for family photos. Located outside of Philomath OR and less than an hour from downtown Corvallis. Mary’s peak requires some driving up a windy road (if you are car sick prone like me: drive slow), but the view from the top is well worth it & you’r kids will awe at the views.
Mary's Peak is the highest point in Oregon’s Coast Range, it has a variety of trails and spectacular views. Speckled with Noble fir forest & rolling meadows and on a clear day, from the top of the peak, you can see both the Pacific Ocean to the west and many of the Cascade peaks to the east. Mary’s Peak is also home to some beautiful wildflowers in the spring and summer months.
This session took some juggling of dates in order to hit the peak on a beautiful day. The first day we had planned the shoot for got completely rained out & from the Willamette Valley below you couldn’t even see the peak, so we switched our date in order to have a beautiful sunset session in the rolling meadows.
