katelynn test

As a thanks for saving our cheese at the sporthill shoot after almost getting rained out, Katelynn shot a look for her portfolio... see, she really doesnt have crossed eyes...

Sporthill

One of our oldest clients Sporthill performance athletic wear is located and has been located in Eugene since its inception.

Jim Hill owner of Sporthill asked us to produce an "iconic" Eugene location shoot. Eugene is well known for its track and field and friendly running atmosphere but mor importantly the Olympic Trials are coming. So we loaded up the truck and did a little sightseeing in good old Eugene.

Autzen Stadium



Defazio Pedestrian/bike bridge

Hayward Field

Of course we had to shoot in studio after being rained out, and who came to our rescue?

Katelynn... who in real life looks nothing like this...

dressed to kill

A local designer in Eugene Oregon "Dressed to Kill" designs (now known as revival) wanted to shoot during a quick jaunt to Oregon's most infamous earth friendly locale.

Megan, our stylish and talented stylist agreed to play in the studio for a few hours. Also attending was Tiara, a friend and model from Los Angeles and Ally, our second model.

I wanted to make sure these shots would have the ability to cross over between "look book" and "editorial". I lit clean and tried to have some sort of symmetry between each look. Knowing the client would go "direct to web" with no clipping or post I kept the background uniform for each shot.



It was a seamless shoot thanks to our talent and stylists, we were able to shoot the entire look book in a half day.

And we had a few guest appearances...



The underage model in the last frame is Zander... one of the studios newest additions.. feet like aquaman.. were hoping hes a Portland Trailblazer in a few years...
