cool boy + cool car | senior photography portland or

yeyYEYyey!! ... that's what i thought when i saw the car, the boy AND the gorgeous sunny fall day that portland had brewed up for us. :)

come on .. take a drive with us. :) we'll go back in time.. *diidly dooo... diddly dooo... diddddly dooo*
















and while i LOVE all the images.. this last one holds a special place.. it was taken as we were driving back to meet the parental units.. the sun was bursting in and out of the windows... and this shadow was probably only alive for a second or two.. but can you see it? oh LOVE!

max | senior portrait

twas the coldest day of the year.. i think it may have been minus 2. but max, undaunted shrugged off his coat and did every crazy thing i asked of him.

however, about 5 min was about all we could stand before we would have to run back to the car for a warm up.

max you look amazingly un-cold....and you rocked the shoot.

Thanks for being awesome!

This is a bleary eyed, late night post. But the peaceful, confident, easy going style and talent of this young man inspired me.

These images were a creation between the three of us: me + christopher + his mum. Each setting and 'prop' shares a bit of his talent and his joy. {and a wee tiny bit of my crazeee}

The streets are paved with gold for you my friend...or whatever other color you choose to paint them.

Relish in the joy of Senior year!

This portrait shoot was done a few months back. I spent the afternoon with my niece, Alaina, in the Pearl Dist. She is a future famous fashion designer so the upscale environment of the Pearl fit her perfectly. We had so much fun that we are planning another shoot later this Summer.
