Babes in the Wood: Zoe

Ah Oregon:

I drove up last month to the fair state of OR, and did some camping, with the ultimate goal of meeting up with an old Seattle pal to take photos and hang out. His girlfriend's daughter was game to be shot in the woods, so I brought up lights and scouted for a cool location near Lincoln City, where we all stayed.

My pal Andy has a great podcast series, called Rain City Bunker. Seattle roommates in the early 90s, he's been a part of a number of my photos in the past. It was fun to re-collaborate and meet up on the road. Here's an amazing photo of him and three ensigns, from our meet-up at Comicon in 2009:

trail to Oregon's tallest bridge, but it abruptly ended with no bridge in sight.

Ding-dong dork not reading signs at all and trying to get gored by elk

Babes in the Wood: Chantelle

  Spring is here and I've been psyched with the warmer weather and sunny mornings. Finding a super-top-extra-secret fern grove spot, Levi was kind enough to let me photograph his big sister Chantelle for my ongoing Babes in the Wood series. 

Wesley, Chantelle's Daddy, proved to be a whiz with a piece of ultra-suede and scissors. Hence her fashionable tunic:

Chantelle has a strong aversion to a spider walking on her foot

running with shoes on was much more fun than dancing with spiders

These guys were fun to hang out with for a couple hours, and of course we had to shoot a couple family shots as well. In the super-top-extra-secret fern spot....
