10/24/08 Baby Joey Day

I had the pleasure of photographing Joey in his first few days.

He was born at Adventist Medical Center in SE Portland. This is the link to the slide show www.studioido.net/slideshow/102408

Pumpkin Patch

Well we got out last Saturday to Hood River fun land pumpkin patch. I took out my old nikon d100 that I never shoot. Have been kicking the idea of turning it into a Inferred Camera. But it works really well for a camera to train the Bailey, our 3 year old, to become the next generation of photographers. Who would ever think a $1600 camera from 6 years ago would be left in the hands of a little girl and dad wouldn't even be nervous. I am was impressed with the image quality from the slow old camera. Here are some shots.

September wedding

Well things have been busy. Busy is good! I wanted to quickly share some photos of September 28th wedding. Some great night shots no thanks to Christina Beck. The wedding was at the Grand Lodge Mcmennimens.

David and Michaela from the San Fransisco Bay area got married up at Husum Highlands ( http://www.husumhighlands.com/ ). I was out shooting again alone :( I love the shots of the gorge when viewed full screen I could see the hundreds of wind surfers and kite boarders down on the river. I shot this secret gorge view a year ago and it was great this year it changed and was even better. Many burned down trees have been cut away. Next year it will be gone. 4 bluff houses burned and only the foundations remain. Temporary electric is in and new construction will be starting soon. It is always important to be continually scouting new locations.This slide show www.studioido.net/slideshow/080908

First Satuday of the summer free.......... Wait I worked as a second with another photographer. Was I crazy ummmm YES. 10 am till 12pm with lots of driving. The plus side was I did not have to touch the images after the day... Yeah my bottom is feeling better already :) It is important to keep some relationships growing. I am not that grumpy I am just playing.
The wedding was fun it was a COWBOY theme well they are cowboys and girls. www.theranchonbeavercreek.com is in its first year as a wedding venue out of Lebanon Oregon near Albany and Corvallis.

07/24/08

This was the second time this summer that I ran in to Dawn Grishaw Harpist of DW DUO. www.dwduo.com Dawn sings, plays the Harp, and DJ's the event. I know that I have none of those skills so what I will remember to do is stay behind the camera and not on the microphone.

07/24/08 A quick wedding on a Thursday night. I would love to fill all my Thursdays with weddings. First wedding of the season where I had to shoot solo. It was a new set of challenges to get all the angles and all the shots done in 4hrs. Sitting here looking at the computer screen I know this couple will be happy with there images. That is my single biggest motivation to continue to improve my ability to document your wedding.












Small wedding in Beaverton.

07/19/08

Eric and Amy impress me again. I was so captivated with how man people love this couple. Listening to I think 15 or so people toast them. I wondered how many people over in Jamesen Park just sat and listened to the 30-35 minutes of tributes echoing off the surrounding buildings. I have never seen so many people have so many good things to say from neighbors to parents. I think I need to keep in contact with this fun couple.








Rooftop venue in the Pearl District, who could ask for anything more. The Ecotrust is such a known green building but also a very functional building.


I was out in full force with
Christina Beck (fellow photographer from Washington) This past Saturday. I am impressed with her growth as a photographer. I want to steal her new lens. But then of course I would also have to switch over to Cannon gear.
I am still missing romantic couple shots on the town for this couple. No matter how hard I tried to pull them away from their guests. It was not going to happen. They are social butterflies and everyone wanted a moment with them. SO...... I told Amy not to change her hair style or color during the honeymoon. Keep looking for our dress up and shoot on the town later in August.









Saturday evening on the rooftop of the Ecotrust Building. What a great day to be outside in the Pearl District.

July 12th 2008 Paris Illinois

This was such a fun wedding. It always helps when it is family. My favorite moment in this event was when I was shooting the Bride and Groom first dance with my daughter asleep on my back in a Ergo kids carrier. She always wonders who the princess is when I go to work. Today she got to dance with the princess and all her cousins. What a great time. This was a huge wedding 300 guests and a large wedding party. I just want to say thanks to all the military folks who do their jobs so we can live our lives. The Midwest has a lot of hard working Americans. Small town America is a special place. Breakfast with all the family at the Bon Ton. Well lets just say everyone says hi and touches the toes of the baby 5 months old as we move about the restaurant. Every face had so much history you could read it on their faces. The Oregon family (us) were stark white like we just came out of a cave. The folk in Illinois were all tan. I feel like our summer took to long to get here.













Some how I survived flying with my two kids to Indianapolis Indiana then drove for two hours to Paris Illinois.

July 10, 2008 BeckenRidge Vineyards

Had a wonderful time photographing at Beckenridge Vineyards http://www.beckenridge.com/ this past Thursday. Matt and Ashley were easy to photograph and work with. They are by far mature beyond their years.
Photographer Lori Lucus was out with me full force this week. She was again the super champ photographer that I love work with. We managed to shoot the split formals in no time. We also went through the family shots in style so everyone had a chance to enjoy the meal.

Updated website

Put my third generation website together just before the season got into full swing. Building websites are not as fun as getting out and using the camera. Hope it is an enjoyable and easy user interface for you. All existing slide shows are still in the same http://www.studioido.net/slideshow locations

test run trying to link blog to website

Studio i do wedding photography at Andina's in the Pearl and The Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm.

Michael and Natalie got married at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm. It was a cold spring so the tulips were late. Not to mention the Snow and rain on the day. I can honestly say they were a great couple to work with. Michael is the nicest guy and he had absolutely no stress over the wedding. The sun breaks came out at just the right moments for him knowing he had some good karma.

As you can see in this picture the sun and clouds. We just drove up I-5 ten minutes ago and had snow on the road and traffic slowed to 15 miles and hour. We took advantage of the light and the blooming trees on the water front. This lasted for only 20min.
