The Pin-ups, Mariah Diane

Mariah seems to have some sort of professional model background that she is denying.  She was completely natural and relaxed (which is hard to do in lingerie & studio lighting).   I love how her playful personality shines through these.

We got inspiration for this after finding some old books mid-shoot.  These are absolutely my favorites. 

I love how these photos came out.  You wouldn't think that a vintage dress would work for a boudoir photoshoot, but it absolutely does.

I love these!

The Pin-Ups, Emma Jean

I met Emma years ago in Eugene but this was the first time we had ever worked together.  Her classic beauty shone and I am completely jealous of her Repunzel waves.

She really pulls off that sweetly sexy thing.

The Pin-Ups, Taylor Maiden

Taylor Maiden is perfectly pinup.  She arrived with gorgeous fans, outfits, the the perfect retro facial expressions.
My favorite is this sepia and fan image.  Something about Taylor's skin tone loved sepia.

 

A close second favorite is this photo in the vintage swimsuit and the umbrella.  Just look at those long legs!

Bend Adventure Boot Camp

D'Anza and I instantly hit it off during out fitness portrait session down at Sawyer park.  As she recently become the owner of Bend Adventure Boot Camp, she wanted to get some good group shots for the website and other marketing.

It felt good to be behind the lens as these 30+ people ran, pushed and pulled.

***Editors note, since starting the boot camp three weeks ago, I have literally lost inches from my midsection.  This class is amazing!

Westfall Family

I met these five cousins down at Shevelin park.  With the wide age range and an impending storm threatening to cancel the shoot, I was nervous that we wouldn't be able to get anything good.  

Luckily, in just forty minuets we were able to get some amazing stuff.  I'm in love with the individual portraits.  You can tell each of these kids have strong personalities.  These are some of my favorite photos yet!

D'Anza - Fitness Extrodinaire

After only talking to D'Anza in a few emails I knew we were going to have a great session.  We met at Sawyer park which offered some amazing backgrounds.  I love how D'Anza's personality shines through in the photographs.  You can tell she is a motivating and supportive fitness trainer.  From just our photoshoot she inspired me to head to the gym more often.

The Breathing Guy

Don was looking for some good head-shots for his website, along with some photos of him in action doing his breathing stuff.  We started out down at Shevelin park for couple of outdoor pictures before meeting at his studio down at northwest crossings.
