Here are a few of my favorites from a business portrait shoot with Phil. We walked around his office building in NE Portland so we could capture a good mix of plain backgrounds as well as cityscapes since he wanted these for multiple uses. In the end we had a good mix of professional and casual shots, good work Phil!

Something I recently learned is that when applying for a job overseas, most companies require you to submit a photo with your resume. This is not PC here in the US, but quite typical everywhere else.  Huh...who knew!  I learned this when I was chatting with Sara as we shot some portraits of her to include in with her application to teach English in Korea.  I've heard through the grapevine that Sara got the job and is now happily teaching away. So if anyone else needs some business portraits taken give me a call!! :)

Bruce and Donna decided they needed some family portraits before half of the group left to live in Hawaii. Personally I would have waited to schedule the shoot for Hawaii, buy maybe that's just me! :)  Everyone was so much fun and you could really tell that this is a tight knit family. Towards the end I even got to try out my new fun toy. It's a fisheye attachment and the kids loved it!!

The hubby and I made a garden box and had the help of little Ollie, our friend's little man. He was a great worker!! He picked up sticks, entertained the dog, kept track of the bocci balls for us, and made piles of rocks.  It was amazing to see the backyard through a child's eyes. Everything was exciting! I couldn't help but pick up my camera and try to capture some of it. Plus, his blue eyes are amazing!

A gorgeous summer day, friends, and disc golf...it doesn't get any better than that!  And a camera of course, because Ben and Jaden wanted their engagement session to be low key and fun, just like them. We had a great time playing and occasionally stopping for a photo.  Personally, I was glad to have a distratction and an excuse for my high score!!  Because just like in regular golf, high scores mean you need some practice!
