ashley :: sneak peek {oregon headshot photography}

in , ,

coming to the end of my first week in portland and i'm loving it. love the new apartment, love this city, but most of all i love how refreshed this move has made me. even throughout the mini-freak out moments during the move, i have felt this constant gratitude for having been able to (finally) get here, and the little flashes of awesomeness that keep telling me this was the right decision, that i'm where i'm supposed to be. so here's to new beginnings!

and, of course, a sneak peek of a session from one of my last days in corvallis. ashley and i caught a quick shoot before we got rained out - she's got a flair for outrageous style and was a natural in front of the camera.

i moved to corvallis when i was 9. i've lived here continuously since i was 15. so i've got over 10 years of history here. my family had planned to make this their settle-down home, but they've all been trickling north the past few years to bellingham and seattle. i'm not going as far north, but i am moving to portland may 1.

may 1??! seems ridiculously soon with all i've got to do.

i'm sad to leave corvallis, and all of the people/places i've met along the way. but it's been so long since i've had such a fresh-start move and i'm really excited to see what comes my way.

and it seems fitting that i should take a mini-vacation before such a big change, to recharge and get ready for the chaos - so i'm off to doe bay with my family to enjoy the hot springs and spend some quality time with them. see you all next week and in the meantime, here's a little preview of a shoot i did this last weekend with a fabulous model, marie.

i had 2 rolls of film from this shoot. i was so excited about them... and BOTH rolls were blank. this has only happened to me once before and that was because the film was loaded backwards (oops, haha). and i know that didn't happen this time. ah, c'est la vie. anyway. here are a few more of carley because she's gorgeous. and wish me better luck next time on my film endeavors.

photo day with megan, one of my most frequent muses. she took a few pictures of me as well. i'm waiting for the film to come back but these are some of my favorite digital ones for now. have a good weekend everyone!
