I was excited to get a referral for someone new to town that needed new Headshots, and quick.  Jessie Drake.  She and I planned our shoot Downtown Portland, Oregon where great light and perfect, nondescript scenery is abound.  We didn’t account for huge wind gusts that started, oh about 5 minutes before we arrived.  Lucky for us, we planned to meet up at a Starbucks beforehand to chat and head out to pick our perfect spot.  Turns out, Jessie and I were already there.  With the wild winds outside and some delicious olive green subway tile across from a wall of windows inside our meeting spot, we asked the manager if he would mind if we ‘borrowed’ their wall for a few minutes.  Here are a few of the shots we got of Jessie.  Between her rich, coffee toned shirt and that lovely green subway tile, her eyes just POP!  Hope you like them, and thanks again Jessie for being so great and fun to work with!
