Let me tell you a little about myself

Welcome Friend, I 'm Branden

I am a Pacific Northwest grown kid, spending most of my life in Oregon and Washington, making Portland my official home in 2004. I spend most of my days working full time for Nike and taking walks to the playground with my spunky toddler and our dog Milo.

I began shooting photography as a hobby while traveling with High School Missions group. The love of capturing and emotion carried with me through the years and now I get to create such special memories of peoples lives and moments.

A few fun facts about me:


1. Unpopular opinion, but I am not a fan of any sort of fish – seafood, freshwater, shellfish, – if it comes out of the water I can't eat it


2. I am a dad to the sweetest, most outgoing daughter in the world. She brings so much joy and excitement to my day. She melts me and I am not mad about it


3. I have a the most loving pup named Milo. He is a 5 year old rescue yet he still has the energy and temperament of a 5 month old puppy!


4. I learned to ski on a whim when I was 29, and although I was reluctant to go, I have loved every bit of it and plan on being on the mountain every season. You can catch me up at Timberline during the winter hitting the slopes.


5. I am a BIG coffee drinker. I worked as a barista for many years and love making a latte at home every once in a while, but you will also catch me drinking a black cup of coffee around town


6. I make a mean Al Pastor Taco ( confirmed by other people, I promise)


7. I am a sucker for sweets, especially a fresh baked brownie or an Apple Pie


8. I love to travel, whether it's out to the Oregon Coast, down to Bend, or across the ocean somewhere, it brings me such joy to see new places. I have gotten the opportunity to travel to places like Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Jamaica. If you live in a location that is on my top list then let's chat about special pricing!


9. I am inspired by people, deep conversations, and stories of redemption.


10. I admire beautiful architecture, well designed interior spaces, and quality products like fashion and home goods.
