Mestizo Photography

Moneybrother, from sweden, played a show in portland's East End before heading out for a cross-country tour. My good friends, Matthan Minster and Adam Traschel, have joined up to help with Bass and Keyboards as this is their first big tour with MoneyBrother.

These are a set of photographs based on an idea i head for an art show. I started working with lights in long exposure and slowly progressed to include a flash and a subject. I chose the purple Unicorn to be in the first set, the second will include a Kangaroo, and the third will be a combination of the two.

These are the photos from Jo's Birthday at Blitz in Portland.

We met up at this Sports bar, Blitz, which is 11th near Ladd's Addition and it is one big bar that extends for almost an entire block.





The night included lots of drinks and fat burgers all while congregating around a pool table. The whole Family was there, Kurt, Monica, and J.R. along with most of the Dot's employees.



Happy 39th Birthday, Jo! I hope you like this present of mine.
