Jackson Browne at The Schnitz…

Trade Magazine Cover…

Shot last week in Salem for Michels Corporation, selected for a trade magazine’s “Project of the Year”. The problem with this shot was that we were locked into this location with the truck, building and signage and it was totally in the bright sun. We managed to move them to just the edge of the [...]

Artwork Photography…

Had a quick shoot in the studio yesterday for sculptue artist Tim Tanner. This horse was made from all sorts of found objects: springs, wheels, gears, struts, even a meat grinder is in there somewhere!

Contractor & Commercial Site Photography…

A couple of assignments from last week while I edit and tweak the images from the Johnson Family shoot this past weekend.

Portland Photographer Happy Hours…

For the past few months I’ve been attending the Portland Photographer Happy Hours started by my friend and ex-neighbor, Andie Petkus.

Kid Loves Facepainting…

Along with popsicles, sprinklers, and playing dress-up, Miss B just loves having her face painted. Which I guess is a good thing we live in Portland because it seems you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting one of these booths at all the outdoor festivals we are fond of going to. While not the [...]

Keith Moon, Who drummer, 1946-1978

Going through my old rock and roll slides while looking for images to upload to the PhotoShelter Collection, (which is now defunct) I ran across this old Fujichrome slide of Keith Moon, drummer for the Who. Of the few images of the Who I sent them, this is the one they selected. This shot is [...]

Wedding at The Water Oasis…
