Engagement Session

Ray and Amanda are getting married on New Years Day, and have hired me to shoot their special day.
We recently met in a park in Newberg for their engagement session, and here's a slideshow of those images.

Recent Wedding Slideshow

Here is a slideshow of the images from a recent wedding on the beach:

Wicked Busy, And Some Updates

My personal, professional, and photography life has been hectic recently.
I'm getting new photography jobs much more frequently, and I've created an account with Zenfolio, which is an on-line image hosting and ordering website. You can check out the Zenfolio site using the link to the right.

Here's some images from some recent photography sessions:

Wendi & Deans Wedding

You might remember I shot their engagement photos last year...

More engagement photos, this time is Erin & Craig.

I've been hired to shoot their beach wedding in October.

This is Jodi and Mike. Jodi called me from Pennsylvania to hire me for this session!

Thanks to Jeanetta for the referral.

And lastly, this is Daniel. His grandmother, who happens to be one of our babysitters, hired me to shoot his High School Senior photos.

These were shot in Cannon Beach, Oregon, on the same day as Jodi & Mikes session.

Carey Family Portraits

I recently had the pleasure to meet with the Carey family at the Duck Pond Cellars in Dundee, Oregon, to obtain some family portraits.
A good time was had by all & they love their images!

Eyan

I recently had the opportunity to shoot the newest member of the Newport, Oregon Police Department. No, I didn't end up getting shot myself, and I don't have to appear in court.
We're working on a project...
I captured my images with my Canon, and not only are they on the city's website, here they are:

Education Update

As mentioned previously, I'm taking an extensive Photography course through the New York Institute of Photography.

I just completed Unit Two. This unit required submission of 3 images.

Image One was supposed to show emphasis on a subject by its size and off-center placement:

Image Two should emphasize a subject by framing. This is an old image, but one perfectly suited for this project:

And Image Three emphasizes a subject by the use of leading lines:

Now on to Unit Three and light!

Overdue Updates

I recently had the opportunity to photograph a family for their portraits. We met at Pacific University in Forest Grove and had a blast!

Here's the best of the best:

Thanks so much to the Atkinson family.
