PHOTOGRAPHY
Several months ago, I spent a lovely late fall afternoon with Amy and Jeremiah, their family and friends at Faith Baptist Church in Salem, Oregon. Amy and Jeremiah were super fun to spend time with and it was evident that their wedding day was about enjoying the moments.

My photo of my daughter on the cover of Willamette Valley Life Magazine
This was so fun. A local publisher Randy Hill asked for contributions to Willamette Vally Life Magazine, so I looked through my winter photos and found a favorite of mine from a significant ice/snow storm. We don’t get many here in the Willamette Valley, so when we do, the kids go crazy. It was easy to get a few shots of my daughter enjoying the snow and ice.
You can keep up with Randy’s adventures by following him on Facebook, or by attending a performance of The Oregon Valley Boys, a local western swing band with fabulous classic sounds.

Thursday noon, 12/15/11, I covered the Annual Christmas Business Luncheon with Serena Morones of Morones Markee. Serena has been involved with this group for the past 14 years and was the MC at this luncheon. Photos from this event are up on this gallery.
Thursday evening, I hung out at The Old Church in Portland, Oregon with Enric Sifa & Michael Allen Harrison. Enric has been invited to sing in 15 performances throughout December. You can read more about Christmas at the Old Church here.

Proofs from your session should be up in my Zenfolio Gallery within a few days. Click here for the link. After selecting your choice, just email me with the photo number.
Looking forward to seeing many more of you for a fun holiday portrait. Mr. & Mrs. Claus will not be reappearing, but the super cute Christmas- themed backdrop is perfect for a quick portrait to send to friends or family for Christmas.

Last spring I spent a most fun lunch hour shooting Salem’s own rock star legend, Deen Castronovo as he performed with the Boys & Girls Club at a fundraiser luncheon at the Salem Confence Center. The audience included friends and patrons and were thrilled with a joint performance that included Deen and the kids from the Journey to Music Discovery Center.
Fast forward to Halloween. Deen is scheduled for another fun performance with the Boys & Girls Club. Check out their poster for the event at the Oregon School for the Deaf.
