I just finalized the poster for Elliot (Bend, Oregon's favorite spacey, eruorockish heartthrobs) and Erin Cole-Baker's upcoming concert at the Kilns Bookstore. Elliot's visual style is very spacey and I had a ton of fun figuring out how to capture that in a screenprintable style. Here is what I ended up with.

I love the super textural look of this freakin' huge, super textural moon looming over this poster. The dark gray on black and overwhelming feel really reflects the power and stage presence of this band. Check out their music video and the free download on their website: www.elliotband.com.

Does anyone have some supercool hookups with a screenprinter and metalic inks?

We recently had the honor of doing as much photography one can do while being in the wedding party. Caitlin and I both stood in my little sister and new brother-in-law's wedding and shot as much as we could without having the cameras up there with us. It has extremely intimidating to shoot for a someone so close to us on such a big day. Jessie is one of the top students her class at a well-known Art school, so there was just a little pressure on us with this one. Oh, and my high school art teacher was he primary photographer, since we were standing. Yeah, this one was a bit of a nerve-wrecker; just try shooting when your teary.

Here's a little look at how things turned out.






Jessie always has maintained this sense of simple classic beauty in all she has done and my mom when comparing Jessie and Jake's wedding to mine and Caitlin's pointed out how both really captured the style of each couple and their relationship; Jessie and Jake's being very sweet and romantic. I really feel that these images capture that very important aspect of Jessie and Jake's wedding.

Congratulations Jessie and Jake, we love you very much and are so thankful for how happy you clearly are together.
