Project 52 --- Week 12. New logos for Rosborough Photography and Fight Club shoot!

I had the chance to shoot with the PDX Strobist Group here in Portland, OR. I go to as many events as possible and this was a fun one for sure. The idea is to learn and share "off camera flash" techniques and to collaborate with other photographers/models. This shoots theme was Fight Club! Here are some of my favorites.

This week I want to show off my new logo's. Every since I started the business I've been feeling my branding needed some improvement. Well this week I took a leap in the right direction with some new logos for Rosborough Photography. I wanted them simple, elegant, clean, and unique. I am pleased to show them now.

Project 52 --- Week 11. Computer died but I'm back up and running

Had my motherboard go out on my main computer and I was lost this week. I didn't shoot much because of it but did some family stuff as we took some new adventures. Jolene got her first tub with big brother and we went down to the Portland Saturday Market and enjoyed the cherry blossoms on the waterfront. Nothing exciting or new this week but there should be some fun stuff for next week.

This was a fun one on the water front. The quote on the rock is.

With new hope
We build new lives
Why complain when it rains?
This is what it means to be free


Have a great week everyone! Please visit us at our RosboroughPhotography.com or our senior page PDXSeniorPortraits.com.

Project 52 --- Week 9 and 10. Alright so I missed a week!

Well it was bound to happen and I didn't even make it to ten weeks! I missed a week of my blog posting. Well do to all the complaints via email, phone, and fax ;) I guess I resume my blogging. I got so busy with the B&W Sale that ended in February that I didn't have time to post last week. This week is just some random stuff and a few of my favorites from the sale. The weather is starting to turn and it's a great time for Spring family portraits. Give me a call and we'll make some amazing memories for you and your families. Enjoy.

Sara and Harley. I just love this image.


Shhh don't tell my Mum! This is going to be her birthday present on the 21st. Good thing I know she doesn't read my blog :( This is all her grandchildren.


One of my favorites from the B&W Sale. Noah was such a good boy for his folks.


I took some pictures of my neighbors Ford and had a nice metal print made for him. Sweet car!



My little girl got her bouncy chair all set up and boy was she happy!

Project 52 --- Week 8 Speakeasy Model Shoot.

This week I had the opportunity to shoot with the PDX Strobist Group up in Washougal, WA. This is a great group of photographers who usually spend a day a month shooting with models for the purpose of learning of camera flash. This month we were working with the Speakeasy Models. We had an outstanding day of sharing and photography fun. Here are some of my early favorites from the shoot.

Project 52 --- Week 7 We lose a great friend.

Well I didn't take many pictures this week. Instead we said good bye to our wonderful chocolate lab Boomer. He was just a month shy of thirteen years old. My wife Bethany and I got him as a pup three years out of high school and he was our best buddy. He was with us through the most crazy parts of our lives and brought laughter, joy, and loyalty to our lives. This weeks blog is not about great images. It's about those that touch me the most.

RIP Boomer --- We love you!

Last picture of boomer ever taken.

Hanging out with baby Michael

He had the sweetest eyes

And loved to sleep with his little pig nose all scrunched up.

Sweet bliss. He loved the beach and the ocean.

And of course his tennis balls

Loved walks with his brother Jonah

And just being goofy.

Loved hanging out with mommy in the snow.

And with his daddy too. Love you old bones.

Project 52 --- Week 6 Michael's first day of preschool

Michael had a great first week at preschool. He graced me with one or two shots with his Lightning McQueen school bag before heading to his first day. The teachers and kids welcomed our little boy with open arms.



Then we had some fun outside hitting some baseballs. Michael spent most of last summer out with his bat and ball. He's so excited to get out and play.

the pitch.


and it's a line drive down the third base line.


another fun one.


Little miss Jolene is getting so big so fast. Shes got enough strength to rock the Bumbo! Kids in Bumbos never get old.



Finally here is a trip to the park. Micheal was just cracking up at these goats.

Project 52 --- Week 5 Timer'd family portraits.

Well Michael starts a new preschool next week and we need to bring in a framed family portrait. Oh man, as a photographer I've got hundreds laying around, right? Wrong. It's not often I'm excited to get in front of a camera and we have been holding off having someone else take our family portrait until little miss Jolene gets a little older.

So we set up the studio. Took some test shots the night before and then got them done today. The old fashioned family way. I set the timer and ran to get everyone in place before the lights fired!! Pretty good for two little ones. We'll ok they're not very good but it will work. Really wish I could have trained the dogs to keep Jolene's eyes towards the camera :)


Set up shots.



Don't tell Bethany I posted pictures of her in her robe ;)


Family Shots -- the best we could do.

Project 52 --- Week 4 Mill, Breakfast, and Park.... Oh My!

This week my baby boy turned three years old. Didn't really get any good pictures from his birthday party cause I was having too much fun. We had a great time with just the family this year. We have started going out for breakfast a day a week as our family meal out. It's so much easier then trying to do Dinner with a three year old and a three month old. Last week we tried Arleta Library Cafe and were blown away with how good the breakfast was. If you live in the Portland, Or are please do yourself a favor and get there.

Project 52 --- Week 3 We got outside.... just for a few minutes.

Another great week here in Oregon. The rain stopped long enough for Michael to get out and ride his bike and then promptly start kicking balls. Of course with his helmet on! Trust me he doesn't always wear a helmet. Here are some pictures from Week 3 of Project 52. I can already feel the pressure to explore new ideas and subjects. Which is the whole idea of the project. Enjoy.


Hurry before it starts raining again!

Then the rain came back and I started playing with Michaels toys. This is my Chicco vs Little People set.



STOP!!!



Chicco wins....




The march of the Seals



Mommy it's cold!




My little angel. We finally got her in the mood to take pictures in her Christmas dress. The funny thing is she pooped four times in this half hour shoot. Probably more then half the shoot was spent on the changing table.





And my fav.
