Aleana is currently a student at South Ridge High School and is looking forward to playing college soccer, hopefully in California. She is very passionate about the sport and I wish her the best.

Emily was such a fun young woman to photograph. I had photographed her brother last year, and both are wonderful young adults. Emily is stunning, and along with being an accomplished athlete, I wonder if she has considered a career in modeling.

I had the pleasure to photography Kaitlynn the other day. It was a fun photo session. Kaitlynn is a talented and very dedicated soccer player with FC portland and aspires to play at the college level.

It was so rewarding to photograph this couple. They were so obviously in love, but they also respected and truly liked each other.

There has been a recent rush to order more portraits from this past falls senior portrait sessions. I remember how much I enjoyed photographing this lovely young woman who will be attending Linfield College this fall. I wish her the best of luck as she begins a her new journey.

I recently photographed Nicole of Spot Color Studios. She needed a new portrait to be featured in the Portland Business Journal as 1 of 100 fastest growing businesses in Portland. Nicole is a remarkable business woman and also very talented.

I am having a terrific time visiting my family on the east coast. The other evening I attended a performance by John Oates on the roof of the Kimberly Hotel in New York City. The Kimberly is a delightful boutique hotel, named for my sister's best friend. The evening was delightful and it actually felt like spring. The next morning I walked the Brooklyn Bridge, something I have always wanted to do.

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Portland attorney Charles Corrigan last week. He needed a business portrait for his upcoming listing in the the Super Lawyer Directory. Congratulations to Charles.

Friday I photographed Mark Teresa an artist who creates the most wonderful found art pieces. He is currently showing at the Wild Rain Gallery roughly 15 miles west of Tillamook. It is impossible for me to choose my favorite because I covet them all. His studio is a joy to visit with all sorts of interesting collections from yard sticks to old spice tins.

Mark is also a family therapist so during this session I wanted to present images that reflected the 2 roles.

My friend Seward has a wonderful art gallery near Tillamook, I am going to show a few samples of my work. The focus of the show is the human body and opens this weekend March 12th. On your way to the beach, be sure to stop at Wild Rain Gallery. In addition to paintings and photographs there are always an excellent selection of jewelry, pottery and fused glass.

It has been ages since I photographed this poised and very beautiful young woman who is currently a student at University of Oregon.

I had a wonderful fall season photographing high school seniors and was so busy that I had little time to post. So while it is a bit late I do want to share some of my favorite sessions from the fall.

There were so many wonderful images from this session that is was a challenge to choose which to feature. It was a joy to photograph this delightful young woman.

My friend Robert, has a business providing personal coaching as well as image consulting for men. Robert is one of the most engaging men I have ever met. Please visit his website www.betheultimateman.com.

I had a very enjoyable afternoon portrait session with this very photogenic and bright Cleveland High School senior. Anna I wish you the most memorable final high school year.
