Last night I was taking shots of downtown for an assignment and stumbled upon this horrific scene. I was in awe of how quickly the Portland Fire Department arrived on scene and tended to the wounded biker. The Portland Police arrived just a few seconds ahead of the firemen and quickly went to interviewing witnesses. Pay your respect with great support for these local heroes.
Hi Joni.
Thank you for taking these photos. I am covering this story for my independent news outlet, BikePortland.org. How can I go about getting permission to use these in my coverage? Thank you. 503-706-8804.

Francoise Weeks floral artworks were on display at the OnPoint Celebrity Bee benefit for Schoolhouse Supplies last Friday at the Portland Art Museum. I create this slide show for her promotions. She is just magical!

My favorite place to get my packaging materials is closing its doors. A walk through their store would give me spectacular ideas to add that WOW factor to my packaging for my Sweetheart Special, Mother’s Day Fab Five Special, Father’s Day Special, Gift Certificates, etc. I’m sad that they are gone. Then that fear of “this could happen to me” sets in for I am a small business as well.
I know in these challenging economic times, I could save more through online stores or big box retailers but I keep thinking that I’m a small local business too and I should behave the way that I would want to be treated. I find value in shopping local and using local vendors for my business where ever possible. People like Rob @ Pro Photo Supply, Wendy and her crew @ Digicraft, Ken @ Frame Central on Macadam provide great customer service and give great advice in helping me solve problems. The upside is that working with them for so long, we’ve gotten to know each other on a personal level and I consider them my friends. I can’t get that with an online vendor.
I hope that my clients see a value in me in addition to photographing them and their loved ones.
Just a reminder – Please Shop Local!

My favorite is the dog in the lower left, and then Tanner (middle). But the real question is how did you get that dog with the red glasses to sit still? He can be such a pill sometimes. 
What a wonderful collage!
This is the beauty about buying shoes – its one of the things we can purchase where we don’t have to worry if the fit is unflattering.
My wonderfully artistic and out of the box floral designer friend, Françoise Weeks has extended her talents to the world of shoes! When I first saw them, they had a turn of the 20th century feel to them. With this in mind, I designed this year’s notecard set to reflect this vintage style.
These notecards are now available for purchase. Click the following link to place an order: SHOES
