Lovely Guerchon Girls

Image
Photographing the Guerchon girls was delightful. We had a fun time with perfect weather down at Willamette Park. This is part of the Athey Creek fundraiser. I am photographing portraits of the schools families and donating the profits back to the school. So far the response has been great!

Herbert Family at Willamette

Image
It was such fun photographing the Herbert family and a joy to revisit Willamette Park. The challenge of going back to a park that you frequent on a regular basis is finding a different angle or a new composition and I definitely enjoyed doing that on this session.

This is a terrific night of fun and glamour! A group gets together at home (this can be girls or couples).

Portrait of a Pianist

Image
Yesterday, I re-created this stage-like shot with my alien bees. We were actually in the living room where James Blackburn gives his lessons. Behind him were two full length windows and a bookcase that I had to drop out. I used two lights. I had a third set-up with a snoot for the face but decided against it. This was a lot of fun!

Beautiful Children's Portraits

Image
Today, (of course the day that I am feeling under the weather and am taking it easy) my daughter and her playmates decide to dress up and allow me take photographs of them. They are starting to enjoy being photographed and relax more in front of the camera. I used my Alien Bees and 40D in the front yard. Post production in Photoshop. Here is one of the shots. I'll post more as I go through them.

Beautiful Baby Portrait

Image
Miss Elliott was the most delightful baby. At just 9.5 months, she is complacent and contented beyond her years. I love how she pensively looks out the window to watch what is going on outside. This photo has a Silverefex Pro Holga filter on it.

Willamette Auction Project

Image
I am very excited to be photographing for the this year's auction project. I will be taking a variety of candids and posed images, then making these photographs available to all families in the school. Special packages will soon be announced and 20% of all profits will go back to the Auction Project and in turn to the school.

Beautiful Baby Portraits - Babies and more Babies

This has been a week of babies and I just LOVE photographing such sweet, innocent and peaceful beings. What a pleasure!

Nina Goes Country

I had a terrific time out at the stables in Sherwood where the Johnson family keep their horses. Thankfully, all animals and humans co-operated and we were able to get the shot! Yee ha!

Magic Theatre Photo Shoot

Yesterday, I photographed the MHCC Theatre's production of "Magic Theatre" for children. The images will be published in The Advocate newspaper. It was great fun and again reignited my enjoyment of theatre. A couple of the images are Matt Kallio's who assisted on the job. Thanks Matt.

Willamette Fundraiser

Image
This month, I am photographing families of Willamette Primary School to raise money for the PTA who then use the money to make the educationional experience of our children more enjoyable. I have raised several thousand dollars over the years but best of all, I have met the most wonderful families and watched them grow. We have been extremely lucky with the most gorgeous weather. I am very excited about the results. The colors are amazing!

Family Stein

Lovely family. I tried a Grecco lighting setup and just loved it. Decided against a hair light but did try the same setup with the hairlight on another client and it was great but different look. Daly looking so handsome. Love that Amanda brought the family a change of clothes!
