out of office :: road trippin'

i will be "out of the office", so to speak, from August 9 to August 20 - exploring our lovely land with camera in tow. the boyfriend and i are renting a car, dropping off the pup, and driving down the 101 to Los Angeles, over to Joshua Tree, up to Red Rocks to see Pretty Lights (!!) and back over to Portland. stopping to camp and eat and see friends along the way. this is a trip we've been planning for quite some time now and i'm sooo thrilled it's finally here! 

i'll have intermittent email access, but if you reach out and do not hear from me please be patient - i will get back to you as soon as i can! 

i have some work i'm really excited to share that will have to wait till i get home - stay tuned!! 

this was taken during our last trip to so-cal - still haven't gotten around to working on those images!!

No One's Safe Clothing Co. {Portland Commercial Photography}

i was so excited to photograph the spring/summer lookbook for this up and coming clothing line by local designer James Lynch. check out the new site design here, and while you're at it, take advantage of the free shipping during the month of June! James is always sharing samples of new releases on instagram, or like his facebook page for updates!

here are some of my favorite images from the shoot. happy monday!

Megan & Tony {Portland Maternity Photography}

so happy to have Megan and Tony on the blog again (check out their wedding post here), and for such an exciting reason - they are expecting baby Vincent in July!! i am so so thrilled for them, and can't wait to see their handsome little man. ​<3

living earth herbs {bellingham commercial photography}

sort of in honor of mother's day - a little photo tour of living earth herbs, which is owned and operated by my mom. she is my natural medicine guru and is the reason i value healthful living, balanced lifestyle, and natural remedies (aside from the fact that it works and keeps me sane). she has made this store into a beautiful, helpful space and i am so happy for her that she is able to serve her community in this way!

if you're in bellingham, check her out for teas, tinctures, spices, flower essences, and much much more. her website is about to undergo a makeover but you can find it here.​
