Rick Lockhart of Flatline Guitars needed promotional images for his new line of handmade guitars. And he
wanted the pictures to be good. Let us know what you think… did we succeed? Thanks to all involved.

Headlining the final gathering of Out Magazine in Seattle ~ Christian Siriano custom designed a vest to be
auctioned off to a local nonprofit. I was honored to cover these events for Out Magazine. As you can see
by the photos, the crowd adored the man. Dogs, women and drinks accompanied throngs of men to see
the famous designer in flesh and blood.
Independent clothing designer Heather Treadway of Portland Oregon / Bordeaux France needed fabulous
pictures of her newest designs. We shot in the amazing Wieden & Kennedy building in the pearl district of
Portland. The day started across the street at the Aveda salon for H&M on a beautiful pre-spring day. I’m
the one with the flower on the lapel – not one of the many beauties…
There was a chill in the air as trains blew by us at the renovated Centralia Train Station. I was hired to photograph part of the inventory of a local dress makers shop, and chose the station for the romance of it all. A nearby McMenamins hotel provided the changing room, as well as some of the background settings when the station closed its doors. My longtime friend Patricia was the H & M person. The dress maker has been able to use these photos in numerous ad campaigns and is most pleased. I have these and a few more from the shoot in my commercial portfolio.
Held in the beautiful Wonder Ballroom in Portland, Oregon – The Junk to Funk is a showcase of Portland’s
dedication to being green. I have never heard so much cheers for design in my life. People roared with delight
at the sight of paper dresses and VHS tape gowns.
Jaysun of the photographers asked if I would be interested in helping him photograph some of Portland
Fashion Week. It was fantastic! The designs and the models and even the audience were gorgeous.
