Kelsey lives in Woodland and goes to Woodland High School.  She was telling me that she didn’t want the same standard senior portrait photographs that all her friends have, so she called me.  She wanted someone who approached high school senior portraits more as an artist.  I think I did her proud by creating some...

The longer I’m around this planet, the more opportunities I have to discover that it really is a small world. I’ve photographed students at DaVinci Middle School, here in Portland, since about 2001.  I began there working on my fine arts thesis project, working with several teachers and tons of students, observing, photographing, and writing. ...

I’ve been photographing a lot of doctors lately, but Ruth and Kevin’s wedding was especially enjoyable: two doctors in their twenties, one working in genetics, and the other a veterinarian.  They share a love for good food (which they shared with each other during the ceremony), a love for laughter, and, obviously, a love for...
