Business portraits in Salem

Have been shooting a fair amount this year, but less seniors than usual. Usually, I have each weekend booked up with seniors, but this year, I have spent the weekends with family. Instead, I have picked up more commercial office work.

Here is one from a local skin care clinic. Highly recommended place with great staff!

Oregon Infrared Landscape Photography

My wife and I had a chance to tag along with some folks who are hiking the Pacific Crest Trail (I think that's it) to get GPS coordinates for Backpacker.

I brought along my infrared camera with one lens, a Tamron 17-50mm on my converted 30D.

I will post some of the photos on flickr and update this post later today, I hope. For now, they are uploaded to Facebook (so that the group of people I hiked with can see them). Here is a link, or check back later for the photo.

Macro photography prints

I am printing some personal work, shot today on a random photo drive through the Mid Willamette Valley. Here is one shot from inside a random RV that looked like it was built originally in the 50s. I shot mostly in infra-red, but this color shot was one of the first I printed.

Walk

Here is an infrared photo I shot on a walk with my daughter and dog. Not much post processing, just a bit of a contrast boost (not much). I have been shooting more in this style just to refresh the creative process.

Portland photos

Cruising downtown with my family and I shot some infrared photos today. Check them out or see my people photography at www.adamphotographic.com.

Senior photos in Salem

I shoot a mix of modern minimalist with some classic beauty and comic art perspective thrown in. If my work appeals to you, drop a line via my site and let's schedule a shoot.

Environmental executive portraiture

www.adamphotographic.com

Last month was ironic. I finally closed my photo studio, not for lack of business as much as because most of my recent work was outside of the studio.

I used to use the studio as a crutch – a place where I could control most aspects of every shot. I have learned to use the external environment more in recent shoots and have taken to using client's spaces to dictate color within my most recent stuff.

What makes it interesting for me is working within a less controlled environment, using available and motivated lighting.

After several shoots on location, I find that people are far more at ease in an environment in which they are comfy. Keeping that in mind, I may pick up some additional environmental portraiture work in the future.

Until then, I have two photo projects in the works. After putting together a portfolio of my fashion work, I saw some additional opportunities that I wish to explore. I have never shot for a portfolio of work on a given project, but after listening to lenswork, I decided to give it a shot.

Details aren't 100%, but I think an 8.5 x 11 series would be easiest from a production perspective and would allow me to focus on the photos. Maybe I will get it printed by Asuka or get another lost-luggage port.

One of my photos will be on a poster for a big state bridge project on the Astoria Megler Bridge. You can check out some of my black and white fine art prints at www.adamphotographic.com.
