The Untapped Wonderland
That’s what we now refer to Industrial Southeast Portland as. I had a photo date with my partner in face-stuffing this weekend and, even though after I threw my camera bag into her car we just sat on my street trying to figure out what to do for 5 minutes, we ended up having a...
Irving Park in November
Hopefully these three frames I shot when I ran into my friend Rory and his pup, Ella, will add some much needed balance to the previous creeptastic Irving Park post. I am really missing all those amber and golden covered trees right now — Fall in Portland is the most beautiful time of year.
Mississippi Pizza Pub
This place is super close to my housepartment but I just don’t make it out there often enough. Which is a darned shame, because they have weekly events like a Spelling Bee (I would so kick everyone’s butt — jus’sayin’) and Trivia Night that speak to the inner geek in me.
Not My Photos // Brianne’s First Roll
Normally I don’t feature other people’s work on my blog, just to keep it relevant. But since I made it a point to share the link love more often, and since I’ve been meticulously documenting my friend and eternal muse, Brianne’s, foray into film photography, and since so many people have been asking about her...
Brianne B. // Cathedral Park
Is there any bigger tease in life than a clear, sunny day in December? Because that’s what us Portlanders are going through today. I’m not going to complain… Too much… But when scanning in these frames from the summer I had to resist the urge to throw on my cutest summer get-up and catch the...
Dear Brianne
You are the best muse a camera-wieldin’ fool like me could ever ask for. From your perfectly tousled hair to your heart-shaped lips, I wish I could photograph you forever! I’m so utterly pleased to have discovered that such meaningful relationships can be forged in spite of working in a soulless, pit of Hell (see:...
Felix and the Magic Window
As you may’ve noticed, I’m hanging back from the internet this holiday weekend. I don’t even want to know how many Facebook notifications I have, or how much catching up I have to do with my blog subscriptions and Flickr contacts!
The Making of Caturday
I try to get out and meet new cats to feature on Caturday, but winter is coming (!) and I imagine I’ll be seeing less and less furballs outside. It was pretty much hurricaning in Portland this week, so I pulled out the tripod and finished off some film in the Mamiya while Felix and...
From a Walk
Fellow work-from-home-ers will agree that most days you have to push yourself to take a break and get out of the house, even if it’s just for a short while. And if it’s for a long while I find it takes an even bigger push, as all I can usually think while I’m out is,...
Baby Clara
Last month I was lucky enough to meet with Lizzie and her newborn baby during my too-short visit to Redding. Clara is cousin to Lavender and Rosie, the very well documented children of Christina (Lizzie’s sister) and Jim, whom I used to live with once-upon-a-seven-years-ago.
Not Your Average Sunday
Six years ago Christina and I got tattoos together as a sort of room-mate girl-bonding thing. Believe it or not, but we walked through the doors of a former Redding tattoo shop to cash in on a Buy One Get One Half Off deal.
The Doctor Is In
If you asked her who her soul mate is, she will likely answer “Neville Longbottom” without a second’s thought. For as long as I’ve known Kristina she’s been a down-to-Earth girl who didn’t mind a little hard work, especially if it meant reaping edibles from the dirt of her own backyard.
