Buildings PDX

by

Random buildings in Portland, Oregon. I like pictures where the entire frame is filled with buildings. This one would have been better if there was a little wind to get that flag flying, oh well I still like the picture. 🙂

Boat House Wedding: Katherine & Randy

by

I shot another short and sweet wedding last weekend. I met up with Katherine and Randy downtown on Sunday morning. As soon as everyone arrived to our first location it was straight to business! With less than an hour to shoot photos there was no time for a ton of set up and take down, mingling …

Stranger in the Grass

by

I was at one of my favourite skyline view locations in Calgary getting a shot of the city yesterday. While I was there I noticed this man sitting in the grass reading. It looked like the scene out of a movie or something, so I thought it might make a good picture. I walked up …

Portland’s Red Baron

by

I saw this kid burning around Portland on his (non-hovering) hoverboard. He looked like he was having quite the time! While he was waiting for the light to change he just kept spinning and moving back and forth. He was doing all of this while downing what looked to be a tasty Starbucks drink haha. …

Sony a7ii & Canon 50mm 1.2

by

I recently got a grip for my Sony a7ii. The grip is an aftermarket brand called Vello. The grip makes holding onto this camera feel way better and I am sure because of it I will reach for this camera more often than I do. The lens I have on the camera is a Canon …

Walk of Art

by

I was out for a little street photography action last night in Calgary. I was walking by a train station and noticed this beautiful painting on the security gate of a store. I thought it would look cool to have some one walking out in front of it, so I waited for the right person …

TriMet

by

The public transit in Portland, Oregon is great! I’m the type who prefers the train over driving, so the public transportation system in Portland is greatly appreciated by myself and other like minded people. Pictured here is TriMet train #235 making its way around the city. Thanks for stopping by, Rob

Renfrew Sunset

by

I was riding my bike around downtown last night doing some location scouting. On my way home this beautiful sunset was going down over my neighbourhood! Good thing I brought my camera. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Rob

Portland City Gym

by

While I was walking around the streets of Portland I handed my camera off to my son Joshua to take this picture of me. I was standing in front of an H&M store we just left. It just so happens that the sweater I am wearing is made by that very store 🙂 Thanks for stopping …

City School

by

I love old schools like the one in this picture. It is a perfect example of what comes to my mind when I think of a big old elementary school. The location of this school is just wonderful. Having the Portland skyline as a backdrop to this beautiful old building makes for good picture. If …

Street Shot

by

Just quick street shot I took while walking around Portland, Oregon. Portland is a great place for street photography because there are a lot of people around wherever you go. The people are also cool looking for the most part, so that is always a plus too :). Thanks for stopping by, Rob  

Skaters

by

These 3 boys have been skateboarding around together for the past couple of years. This year they have been on their boards more than ever. I have found myself skating around the neighbourhood with them and remembering my own childhood of skateboarding. I thought I better get a picture of the original squad together before they …
