Happy 2013 Everyone!  I was looking through some old portraits, and I thought it would be nice to post some of my work that is not available on my website.  I take hundreds of photos during each photo shoot. Editing and thinning them can be a long and tedious process, and often some great shots don't make the cut.  Here are some of the portraits that I didn't choose.  Some of these are seeing the light of day for the first time... I hope you enjoy them. Most of the following photos were taken in Portland oregon. There are a few exceptions.  The first photo (the back of a girl in a plaid coat with a purple knit hat) and the photos further down of the girl in the foggy window were taken on the Oregon coast in Yachats.  The photo of the girl with a flower in her hair holding the picture frame was taken in Eugene, Oregon.   The photo of the cowboy was taken in San Antonio Texas.
