First, the lovely Tiffany. She came to me wanting to shoot some Marilyn Monroe inspired portraits, which we did and they look great..not for your eyes yet though! Here is a quick one I caught as she was preparing for a pose:

Big Pin-Up news!!!

Posted in Photography, Pin-Up  by Mike

As promised - some big news for fans of pin-up photography. After months of behind the scenes preparations, I’m very pleased to unveil….Portland Pin-Ups!!! The 50’s are back and more popular than ever, so celebrate with an awesome portrait session in the classic pin-up style! You’ll feel pampered and loved in my studio, starting with the attention of a professional make-up artist and hair stylist! Then we have a fun filled hour or so shooting you in all sorts of cheesy scenes. Then I work my retouching magic to produce a portrait that will wow you and your friends, and that you will treasure for years to come. If pin-up isn’t your thing, I also shoot glamour and ‘intimate’ style portraits - perfect for capturing your beauty and cherishing into the future.

Fellas - this makes a wonderful gift for the lady in your life!

Head over to Portland Pin Ups now to view the gallery and learn more!

London Andrews - the travelling model!

Posted in Fashion, Intimates, Photography, Pin-Up  by Mike

Meet the lovely London Andrews. London has spent the last 2 years travelling around America modelling as she goes, and working with photographers she seeks out in every city. I had thought about contacting her to see about shooting when she hit Portland, but since she gets a load of paid work didn’t think she’d be interested in a TFP (Time For Photos) shoot with me. And then she emailed me!! Turns out that she was as much a fan of my work as I was of hers…so we set up a shoot. We had a ton of fun, she’s a true professional! Find out more about here travels here: London Andrews: travelling modelMany of the images may be a bit too hot for this blog, and are destined for my Intimates portfolio which will be launching later in the year. Here are a couple of quick ones for now:
