Portland portraits

I went to visit my Sister and her family in Portland a few weeks ago. It was my first time in Portland, and wow it is beautiful up there. The blanket of green is such a refreshing contrast from the muddy brown hue of Southern California.

While I was there, my nephew Eric mentioned he needed to submit senior pictures… so i decided to take them out for a quick shoot. I didn’t bring any gear with me except my Nikon D700 w/ trusty 50mm 1.8 lens. The shots were taken under natural light.

Here are some of the pics of my Niece and Nephews below (they’ve grown up so fast!). Hope you’re able to use some of these Eric.

      Thanks Youa, yes next time I’m in the Portland area I must set aside time to take more pictures, it’s too naturally beautiful not to.
