{self portrait friday} 27

My self portrait friday today was going to be epic. It required waking up at 3:30 am and it included the wonderful Nathan Worden. However, the files have failed me and while I investigate their rebellion against me, I leave you with this silly GIF that I like the consider my only magic trick.

Emma-Kate shares a love for making things happen behind the camera but I have to say she ROCKED IT OUT in front of the camera for a change.

I was really hating technology. And crazy-packed calendars. And my poor attempt to lower my daily intake of caffeine. I knew I had to create SOMETHING. Something off the beaten path, something I wouldn’t typically have the opportunity to create. Luckily, Nathan Worden (photographer and McAssistant extroidanaire) happily obliged to run around town (literally…and some jumping) with me. A few minutes before shooting as I rambled with Nathan, I decided I wanted these images to be action-driven. Giving Nathan the perfect opportunity to do what he does best — not sit still.

From the first moment I met Anna + Tony, I adored them. They are truly THAT couple — they are completely in love with each other and you just can’t help but want to be around them. I was overjoyed to be a part of their spectacular Portland wedding held at the First Unitarian Church. Anna + Tony’s wedding day was filled with love, joy, good company and plenty of boogie on the dance floor (just the way I like it).

Anna + Tony, thank you so much for sharing these moments with my camera and I.

In case you were wondering…

Yes, I am still doing Self Portrait Friday.

But yes, I haven’t posted in WEEKS.

And since I feel like such a bad McBlogger, starting this Friday I’m dedicating the weekend a Self Portait Friday marathon of sorts. Warning: it shall be epic.

In the meantime, feast your eyes upon all the beautiful people I’ve had in front of my camera lately

Now you must excuse me, I obviously have some McWorking and McBlogging I need to attend to.

On the eve of Nia’s graduation, I joined her and her family for a couple celebratory photos. Here’s a few of Nia with her mother and sister.

With senior season in full swing, it’s been so exciting to have a bunch of seniors choosing to go deluxe with their senior session! The deluxe package includes the opportunity to drive out of town to a unique location, styling help from yours truly and professional makeup by the amazing Caylan Wagar. For Katie’s session, we headed out to Alsea Falls after Caylan did her makeup and we chose a couple rockin’ outfits.

Katie tried to tell me that she wasn’t comfortable in front of the camera but after TWO SECONDS of photographing her I knew that Katie was going to rock it out. I think my voice literally raised a couple of octaves over the course of her shoot with lots of squeals of excitement and oh-my-gawd’s. It was just that awesome.
