Following my morning modeling test shoot with David Lewis, I was lucky enough to have a few hours before heading into another cool session, this time with a photographer acquaintence of mine. We started on Mercer Island at a fun local park, then off to downtown Ballard for some urban scenes, and finished at Golden Gardens beach to catch some great sunset rays! And yes…I’m a little sunburned today! -JM
Sunset at Golden Gardens Beach, Ballard/Seattle, June 28
Phew it’s pretty hot today, and was pushing 70-degrees at 8:45am this morning! After editing until 3am I had about 3.5hrs of sleep heading into this shoot, but we definitely came out with some killer material that hopefully his agency will be diggin next week.
“Fo Sho!” was definitely the term for the day. We had perfect weather, some stylin’ wardrobe and even got booted from a drycleaners parking lot (see top right image)!! Gotta love shooting in downtown Kirkland, Wa! -JM
Since last July when I returned from working as a supervisor at the World Series of Poker, I have been working towards becoming a ‘preferred’ photographer for the Northwest’s top modeling agencies. In the last three months I have finally had the opportunity to network with the top three NW agencies: SMG (Seattle Models Guild/cleints Nordstrom, Macy’s, etc), Sports Unlimited (client list: Nike, Adidas USA, REI, etc.) and Heffner Management in Seattle. Here’s a sample shoot with SMG model, Mike Rose, shot around downtown Seattle and Lake Union.
Although Mike was 45min late to his appointment, we made it work and did a little shopping downtown at J.Crew and Urban Outfitters before jumping into his session. Somehow we were able to nail six different outfits in about two hours, and hopefully we’ll get to do some athletic stuff later this week (Mike played baseball for about 10 years). We’ll hope that his agency loves the images and wants to keep me in their loop! -JM
What a cool sunrise!
What a great time here with 80-degree sun, lots of wilderness, great creative people and great food! Had so much fun i wanted to shoot Bend-local model that I went out and found Ashley here for this special session…enjoy!!
Woke up at 6:30am to catch the great mountain morning light in Bend with my model ‘Ashley’ who just happened to be visiting in town from Boise when we connected for a great 4hr shoot to jumpstart my last day in Bend for the PPO Conference summer retreat. Enjoy!

Testimonial from Ashley: Here’s a copy of the text message she sent me following our morning session: “That was so much fun! Thank you so much, I really appreciated our shoot. You were a blast to shoot with! Would love to shoot again with you sometime…I wish we had more time!”
