portland headshot photographer
This adorable teenager needed a professional headshot, as she was advancing to the national level of a singing competition. This was taken in my studio (343 Court Street NE) with a simple black backdrop.
I’ve shared some photos from this session already (Click HERE to see the color shots), but just wanted to mention (again) how much fun this was! River and I spent a few hours hanging out, talking, laughing, and snapping photos of each other at the most amazing airbnb (yes, I rent through them frequently…what can I say, I love airbnbs!). If you’re asking, “Where are the photos she took of you, Kel?” — Well, that is a really good question and now that you bring it up, I realize that I should probably share the photos she took of me one of these days (they’re SO good!). In the meantime, please enjoy these black and white portraits of my adorable friend, River!
I recently posted some boudoir photos that I did of my friend, River, but we also did some regular portraits that day. We couldn’t resist, seeing as the property was so gorgeous! In case you were wondering, yes, River really is this vibrant in person. She’s full of sunshine and light and she’s just an awesome person to be around. She is also a birth photographer and doula in La Grande, Oregon, so if you’re expecting and you live in her area…look her up (River & Wave is the name of her business)!
When someone books me for a single headshot, I shoot digital because the turnaround time is faster and I don’t really want to waste a whole roll of film for one shot. If you’re interested in having your portraits done on film, though, just ask me about mini sessions!
Bre is an adorable photographer that I met at a workshop a few years ago. Seeing as we met through film photography, it only made sense that I shoot her portraits on film. These were shot on my Canon EOS-3, using Kodak Gold 400 film, which was processed and scanned by The FIND Lab.
