2 weeks left until my spooky season books close.

Schedule your portraits, events, live music and DJ sets!

Books have been closed for a couple months, but this time of year is one of my favorites. Options for every budget level.

Sincerely hoping some of y'all take me up on those astral shoots. Will be really fun to analyze your charts and craft a photoshoot based on your astrological placements specifically!

Also opening up the books for bands and events, all these Halloween parties need some documentation!

A reminder and an advertisement:
I’ve been taking live music photos for a long time. 13 years or so by my math. I’ve shot at huge festivals, and I also shoot shows in dive bars and basements.
If you want your show documented well and for reasonable prices, DM me or email me, my books for live music photography are always open.

Looking for a way to support local artists and (very) small businesses?

Events like First Thursday in the Pearl are the perfect chance to meet local makers. Follow for more info/updates.

If you were a vendor at this, I most likely have a couple pictures of you, DM me and I'll send them along.

What did you do this Mother's Day?

Before going to visit my Mom I spent some time at the , which always has a lovely collection of vendors, along with some entertainment and tasty food/drink options.

That market is happening the second Sunday of each month, so mark your calendars!

If you vended at this event, I most likely have a couple pictures of you. DM me for high res images.

Underground music in Portland is always inspiring. Went to a little situation last weekend on the waterfront and brought a new addition to my repertoire, a ring light! I didn't get the chance to get too many portraits but I did get a couple. Thanks to everyone that posed for me. Perhaps I'll see some folks later at ?

While staying at last week I went to place I'd never been: Olympic National Park ( )

I only had a day so I stuck to the southernmost area, the Quinault Rainforest. I listened to Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass"on my way up and back, letting his ramblings and the surrounding nature inspire me.

We are truly spoiled here. Please enjoy these pictures. I'll definitely be printing some to sell at some markets throughout the year. If you want a specific one let me know.
