I had the opportunity to work with a new model earlier this week. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to work with a new collaborative model. It’s not like hiring someone for a commercial shoot where the outcomes are clearly identified prior to showing up. It’s more of a, “show up and see if we have... Continue Reading →
We hit 70º last Wednesday, so I decided to throw the dog and the cameras in the truck and run up to Willow Creek for the night. 100% worth it. The sunsets have been lacking lately, so it was a gamble. It paid off, though. There’s nothing better than sitting by the camp fire with... Continue Reading →

I have a tendency to overbook myself when I come to Portland. Obviously, I want to spend as much time as possible with family, but there are other people I need to see when I'm here, too. My three favorite models are some of those people. I have a shoot with all three planned for... Continue Reading →
