Ashley and Ben – awesome Portland engagement session

July 31, 2009

Meet Ashley and Ben. This couple rank as one of my funnest wedding couples ever! They are getting married at the beach in August, and they wanted something different and cool for their engagement portraits – so we headed into the studio and shot a pin-up inspired session!!

The results….well – they both look stunning!

These guys came to me via Powers Studios, who I’m shooting some of my weddings for this summer.

Vicki and Dan – Crazy Canadians!

July 9, 2008

If anyone ever asks you if the water flowing from Mt Hood is cold…you can tell them from me that it’s FREEZING!!!

Meet Vicki and Dan. Vicki is a friend of mine from a photo forum, and a fellow photographer. Her and hubby Dan are from Canada and very used being out in the elements. She contacted me a while back to see if I could capture them in a portrait / Trash the dress session when they hit town for a few days….certainly!! I had no idea they’d be this much fun! After an hour or so messing around in my favorite Portland location (abandoned factory) we headed for the Gorge and a waterfall. Both game for a laugh, they got right in there…under the waterfall, and laying down in the freezing waters! I got in there too, up to my knees only though….I had a camera to protect!!

Here are the first few….what an amazing session!!

Kim and Adam – Engagement session

June 4, 2008

Kim and Adam – wow…what a session!! With the rain fast approaching, these two rocked the hell out of this, and we had a ton of fun. Both naturals for the camera they relaxed and enjoyed it. Kim could easily be a model…seriously Kim…wanna do some modelling?!!?Way too many favorites to pick just a few…so here are many!!! On a side note – I’ve been trying some new processing on these…I miss the look of film, and have messed around with some techniques that move toward that.
