Kate and Shelby's Beautiful Family | Portland Family Photographer

Last month I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Kate and Shelby and photograph their beautiful family. The day gave us perfect weather for shooting in, we were covered by trees and shooting in the late afternoon. Their kids are super cute and full of energy; which made it fun and exciting for me to capture that with my camera. We ended up shooting over in West Linn at a park near the river. I really enjoyed working with them, and a huge thank you to Kate and Shelby!

Film 2012

Last week I went and dropped off two black and white rolls of film at Pro Photo for developing, today I got my negatives and two discs back. One of the rolls was Ilford 400 black and white film that I mostly shot during January and some of February. The second was a roll of Kodak T-Max 400 that I used up in May. I'm pretty happy with the results, film is something I enjoy shooting for joy. It's an expensive joy but money shouldn't keep me away from doing what I love. Here are my favorite photos from these two rolls.

Lost Photos

Somehow, recently I've been focusing on posting portraits of people and wedding photos, but have been neglecting to post the landscape shots I've enjoyed taking. Man I feel like a whole season has come and gone without me showing you some of my favorite "not people" shots from the early spring on. So here we go, I present to you my favorite places and scenes without people. So many stories, so much beauty in all places. I hope you enjoy these!
