As I said last week the wonderful Shannon and I have been working on a series of sessions to capture her family while she is in town from New York. The first session was great, laid back and full of silliness. For our second session we went with a little more upscale downtown setting, and set out to capture Shannon and her beautiful mother. We had a great time walking around downtown Portland, getting some historical buildings and just chatting.
Here are a few of my favorites so far:
check out the lovely ladies.
This cool old gold door was a great back drop for us.
Shannon’s mom has such a beautiful smile.
A little bit of modern and classic. These two are fun together clearly. 
🙂
These two were up for all my crazy ideas, love it. 
We also visited a sentimental spot. The mural in the backdrop depicts Shanon’s family. 
We also spent some time at the amazing Benson Hotel. really a downtown Portland landmark. They were great to give us permission to shoot. 🙂
Shannon thanks again for being up for all my crazy ideas. I had a great time getting to know your family. You two are fantastic. I hope you like your sneak peek. I will have the whole set of galleries up for you very soon.
