Tire Photography…

An innovative tire company here in Portland tracks me down once a year or so to photograph their latest designs. Very often I’m working with prototypes and sworn to secrecy! They usually like the logos highlighted to show off the brand.  

Green IT Portrait with PocketWizards & Speedlites…

   As in good for the environment, green. Been working with the small Canon Speedlites and PocketWizards more and more. This shot in my office of Keegan Mullaney for KM Authorized uses three: one diffused, front right, one hard, rear left, and one with a green gel (for that obvious “Green” message) rear right on the [...]

Holiday Product Shot…

Always interesting to see what the graphic and web designers do when the client requests a “very simple product shot”.

Before and After…

My client needed a great shot to submit for a housing design competition and show. Only problem was, the house wasn’t ready due to the cold weather and various construction delays. It was also a muddy worksite in December in Portland, and as you know, not the nicest weather. Yet the deadline loomed. Shot the grass [...]

Studio Portraits…

First Thursday at ESA…

First Thursday at Everett Street Autoworks was a blast. With not much experience actually showing my work, it was a trip watching people move down the line of images, pointing and making comments to their friends. My hosts were extra gracious in allowing me to present my stuff. A guy could get used to all [...]

After all this time, this is only my second photo show opening ever, which is really pretty pitiful.My show-mate will be Carol J. Anderson, showing acrylics on canvas [...]

Detox and Rebirth…

One of my top five reasons for being a photographer is the access you’re allowed or the experiences you get to have, that a lot of people don’t get to. A recent shoot for a new client brought that point to mind once again. They are an outpatient recovery clinic that offers unique services, including [...]

Business Photography and Portraits…

A composite of three separate, 1/3 page ads I shot for a client on a theme about choices, flavors and styles. A nice change of pace to conceptualize with the clients and flesh out some images. A lot of Photoshop was involved for the apples and ice cream as you might have suspected. It is [...]

December Work-Sun & Moon Studios…

Wow, I can’t believe a whole month has gone by without a blog entry from yours truly. December is usually a slow month for me but this year, with the big East Coast trip planned and more work than usual, I had two weeks to complete a month’s assignments. Here’s a postcard promo, shot for [...]
