march 12, 2009: old town with ashlee

Ashlee and I had a portrait session this past Thursday. We were originally supposed to shoot earlier in the week, but the crazy weather we've been having lately (sunshine, snow flurries, rain, and hail--all in one day!) thwarted our plans. However, Thursday turned out to be a much better choice!

This session was a great journey for me, as I found a whole host of new locations in the Old Town/Chinatown area that I'm itching to try! I'm sure they'll make an appearance on the blog sooner or later.

If you're interested, there are more photos from this session here. The set isn't complete yet, but should be in a few days or so.

march 2, 2009: Ciera's maternity photos

Ciera and I had a quick maternity session on Monday at Ladd's Circle Park. I'm not going to sugar coat it--I really need to learn Portland! I thought the park was larger than it was in actuality, and also didn't bank on it being muddy from rain. But! We soldiered onward, and came up with some pretty good portraits.



Ciera is due about 2 1/2 weeks before I am (I'm May 24, she's May 1), which is exciting. I'm sure it was quite amusing to see two pregnant women tromping around in the mud, with a two year old (Ciera's son) running around them.

We had a great, and memorable, time! Thanks for braving the mud, Ciera!

february 5, 2009: emily

Emily and I met up downtown for a portrait session--it went fantastically! Not only did we have a great time, I found a dozen more spots to use in the future. I absolutely love this city!!

The blog will be undergoing a few iterations for the next few weeks--I'm trying to create something, and that will include lots and lots of trial and error! The website will remain the same. I'm also talking to someone about designing a logo--HTML I can handle, but logo design? Ayiyi!
