While browsing Craigslist tonight I saw an ad from a “photographer” wanting models TFP…nothing odd about that, except his name…Mike Long…can you believe it?!! If you are going to work with a Mike Long in Portland, double check you’re getting the right one……And good luck to the other Mike!!
Got a ton of images for your Facebook profile..but they are all a bit tired and old?? Jazz it up with some professional portraits!! Here are a couple from a session with Kentin - his profile is now rockin’ !! Sessions from as little as $50…get in touch now to book yours!

Meet Cherry - one of the most amazing women I’ve ever photographed. Not only is she awesome looking, but she’s happy fun and smart and brought a huge energy to the session! We shot these Bridal fashion images - not really a Trash The Dress as such, but you really don’t need to trash it to have fun - and we also shot some ‘Intimate’ images which are destined to form a portfolio for a new service I’m launching later in the year…stay tuned on that one!




Another of my awesome couples - Lisa and Auston are getting married in July and will have over 300 happy guests there to wish them well!! It’ll be a busy day!!


A couple more from Kristin’s bridal shoot - great fun, and doesn’t she look awesome!


Meet Kristin - an amazing young lady who wanted some awesome, different shots in her vintage wedding dress. Certainly!! We had a ton of fun on this shoot, she’s a natural! More to come from this shoot soon, these are 4 very quick ones:


Ceanna and Greg - getting married on May 24th…should be a ton of fun!! Here are a couple of quick shots of them today…


My family are here from England (more images soon) and we took them up to Timberline Lodge for a hot chocolate over the weekend. Awesome…it was hot (70+ on top of the mountain!), there was still a ton of snow up there. I took a grand total of 10 photographs! The scenery was great, but I was in charge of my boy and had so much fun prancing around in the snow that the camera only came out to take a few quick self portraits with my son…which are here….


Hot off the presses….Mötley are back, and they are still kicking ass!!
If you are bored with American Idol, manufactured pop, bland, generic music…then the Crüe should have the cüre….
They have a new album due out in June, the first with the original line-up for 10 years. The first song, “Saint’s of Los Angeles” rocks. Big time. They have a huge tour, “Crüe Fest” with 5 bands this summer. The only bummer is that I’ve got a wedding booked for the Portland date!! Some travel may be in order…

Another shot of the awesome Cynthia from our recent photographer’s day at the studio…”

Such a great shoot - so many cool images. This finishes up this one for now…




Finally, after living in America for 3 years, my family have decided to jump on a plane and brave the journey! Henry is having some quality time with Grandma and Grandad! Here he is with Nanny…



More from the shoot with Hollie:



One of the services that I have on offer to compliment my wedding photography this year is an outdoor Bridal Shoot - sometimes known as ‘Trash The Dress’ (we don’t really *trash* the dress…but we take it places you wouldn’t on your wedding day!). This is the first shot of Hollie that I’ve looked at - looks awesome doesn’t she? I’m planning a few of these shoots this year….if you have recently got married and want to have some fun get in touch!
