About Me

Are you a musician, either solo or in a band? Do you live and/or play in the beautiful city of Portland Oregon? Do your press photos consist of blurry cell phone snapshots taken by your drunk friend at a party? If yes, I can help. If no, I can still help! Check out my "official" website! Peruse my flickr page! Then email me. I will shoot you and you are guaranteed* to rocket to superstardom! *Not guaranteed exactly, but good photos may help.
