Congrats Ian & Kathryn!

Ian & Kathryn have been together for 5 years & they are ready to take the plung! To celebrate they hiked up MT. Hood & asked me to join them to make an album of their day for Ian's mom. The views were spectacular! Quite the good choice guys!

MEET DON!

Took a workshop at New Space! It was good to push creative lighting techniques a little further. Here are the results:

DERBY DAY!

In walking distance from our house is Mount Tabor park. Once a year magic happens and portlanders come out in full force on wheels to zoom down the windy inactive volcano. True imagination is seen here and these cars are WILD! The excitement is (unfortunately) may be watching some crashes at the end.

Little did we know we would be a part of a crash..it was scary..but everyone came out fine. Sitting on the sidelines with my eye on my camera a giant polar bear came at us, thank god sierra yelled "LOOK OUT!" because the polar bear went out of my focal range and I had NO clue is was coming right for us! We thought Maya was a goner, but her batman instinct kicked in and she got out unscathed!

THE COAST!

It was NOT an easy decision to leave NYC. I really did feel the most at home in the big apple...but the following is why the west won, I forgot sometimes on this trip with my parents that we live here, & even after they leave..dah we can drive back because the beach is only an hour & 1/2 from our house! Thanks Oregon for being so beautiful!
