NYC comes to Hey Love PDX

Two of our favorite musicians, Julia Haltigan and Kendra Morris hit Portland on the final leg of their West Coast tour this past Saturday and we were fortunate enough to be there and take in every moment. After a last minute venue change, Julia, Kendra, and their band played Hey Love PDX, in what turned out to be an amazing, intimate performance. While we normally shoot large venues and festivals, who knew that in the midst of a swanky PDX hotel bar you could be transported back a decade or two in what felt like a performance in a gritty NYC haunt 20 years ago! That feeling led me to edit these images with that earthy, soulful vibe that makes you feel the music as if you were there, and the heart and soul that goes into making it…

Thank you all for a wonderful experience!

The House of Providence School and Orphanage

We’re told that trapped spirits of former students and educators still reside in the attic space above and appear from time to time. This is our conceptualization…
