I’ve received quite a few inquiries if I do business portraits and business headshots. Yes, yes I do. We can do them at my downtown studio, at your business or other location.

It was great to see the ad in Sunday’s paper after all the work done by everybody during the previous week. Plus the sentiment is right on target.

Working on some regional advertising campaigns for a couple of newer clients. Put a book and gallery show together with Mary Lou Zeek. Quite a few business portraits, and portraits for people running for office (some of which are currently on a few billboards). Some promotional work for a few bands and musicians. And working with some very deserving non-profits. And more…

So taking a quick break to post a photo that I hope will make you smile. It has that effect on me.

Awesome photoshoot with the brilliant Rich McCloud.

Rob has a very cool studio just across the street from my photography studio. What beautiful light. Not only was I lucky enough to photograph this outstanding artist, we were able to talk films/movies for a bit as well.

I really enjoy meeting and photographing people in their own spaces. Photographing artists while they’re working is absolutely sublime! Carol Hausser is just so talented and fantastic. These visits have been so humbling.

It was my distinct pleasure to meet and talk with artist and sculptor, Robert Hess, yesterday. I literally could have spent hours speaking with him and photographing his work and studio.

As part of a two day editorial photoshoot with Pacific NorthWest artists taken at their homes and studios, here’s a quick portrait of Terry. This project is intense, both in terms of how quickly we have to complete the shoot (12 artists/2 days), and how cool it is meeting these artists. More later.

Wanted to send my wishes out, as I usually don’t post on the weekend. Be safe. (My Irish grandmother used to warn, that like New Year’s Eve, St. Patrick’s Day attracts the amateurs.)

David had a bit of time today to stop by and work on some photos for his actor’s resume/portfolio. We really wanted to get a full-body shot done today.
