Blending Thoughts

Hello everyone, 

I hope you have all been enjoying the holiday season. With all of the commotion I've been trying to sneak some alone time to relax. The more time I have alone, the more I realize all I want to do is create. My fingers are sore from trying new ideas, sketching, coloring, and wrapping jewelry. But when it comes down to it, the only art I feel completely connected to is photography. I've been determined to find the perfect blend between my drawings and my photography, so I started playing around in photoshop with some pictures. The images set the tone and the design adds my individual connection I have with the world. 

I love you all,

Kailey

Multnomah Falls

I love living in Portland. Everyday I find another thing to gasp at.
Today we decided it was time to see Multnomah Falls, especially since it was our day off. We found an incredible amount of beauty in every step. The mist of the falls, green ferns, yellow fall leaves, and salmon swimming up stream. We were reminded that with a little determination we will get where we want to be. 
The drive itself was fantastic, and it's only thirty minutes from our house!

Well anyway we had a lot of fun shooting here, it will definitely be a place to bring family and friends when they visit.

Some of these images will be hanging at Village Coffee this month!

Thanks for stopping by,

Reddot!

A new month brings new projects. A very close friend of mine is a talented musician, and I have been lucky enough to be able to help him out with a fresh new look. Here are a few samples of what I quickly came up with. I'll be posting more ideas in the next few days. I would love to hear any kind of feedback. Let me know which design is your favorite!

"Reddot is the musical project of fresh Denver producer Josh Novak. His heavy tunes feature sizzling leads and booming basslines. His live performances are energetic and always original- he interacts with his software to deliver his productions in a unique way. His sound is psychedelic, dark and melodic in a way most young producers can’t emulate. Each song has a different flavor, stemming from his wide range of influences, from classic rock to hip hop, dubstep to jam bands. His attention to detail is evident in his songs, using filters and effects to swirl in synthesizers. When playing live, his sets build in potential energy, flowing together deep bass grooves over shuffled drums, changing speed and blending styles flawlessly. Every time Novak gets behind the helm of his MacBook and interface the crowd gets brought to life. Reddot has played across the state of Colorado, and been the winner of recent Denver electronic musician battles. He will be bringing his sound to Sonic Bloom for the first time this summer with fresh tunes in tow. Reddot’s heady productions continue to delve into new territory unexplored by most dubstep producers. His latest song Electromagnetic Pulse is representative of this. Dark, heavy, and it sounds like nothing you’ve heard before."

Potatoes, Parks, and Trees

Recently I've been hungry, for fall comfort, I woke up a few days ago with the pleasure of spicy potatoes and yogurt. Later that day I was inspired to go out and explore my new community. I was surprised to find I was most enthusiastic about the infinite amount trees that engulf everything here. If I've learned anything while living in Oregon, its that trees have more knowledge in every little limb than we do in our entire body. 

Fall colors, are everywhere! There's nothing better than a warm home with a handwritten letter to come home to on such a cold day. 

 Sunset from Multnomah Village. Let the brilliant light widen your eyes with wonder. 

 I'm still trying to identify this tree, but they are everywhere! I know it is something along the lines of a Douglasfir, but the needles look different, so I'm honestly not positive. I'm learning so much about trees just trying to identify this one, its quite fascinating. I am now aware that whatever this tree may be it is part of the Pinaceae Family. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to all of you with my new found tree knowledge soon!

 The last photograph is of Gabriel Park just up the street from our home. When Rachel and I arrived in Multnomah Village this was one of the first places we came across. Its much bigger than it looks; with trails that lead through the forest, past a dog park, a garden, and over a bridge into another soccer field. Rather impressive for just stumbling upon it. 

More to come soon!

A Walk in the Woods

I missed the ocean.
So this saturday we made our way to the coast. The drive was beautiful, with reflecting pools and trees lining the road.
Our drive took us around Cape Meares and up towards the forest. Our walk was shrouded in mist with the occasional giant tree breaking through the fog and the sound of the hidden ocean below us.
The forest floor was wet with dew, full of ferns and a hundred different types of mushrooms. The walk put a few things in to perspective for me. We have been working hard at our new jobs, which I am grateful to have, but I am here for photography. I came to this beautiful place to be inspired and I plan on that showing in our work.

With love,

Forever Rotating

It seems that life has got me spinning in several directions. Rachel and I have both been working hard at our new jobs here in portland while still consistently working on reaching our goals in photography. As life moves faster and faster I decided to take some time for myself and create some self portraits. I always say, the best way to move past anything is to take some pictures of yourself. 

The second image is a photograph of our adorable retro kitchen. I'm completely in love with it.

On another note, we recently added some images on our website. Please take a look!

Oregon Sanctuary

During the past few days Rachel and I have been staying with some family friends in Oregon City. They have the most darling house that words cannot describe. The foxy dog Anna has kept us company when we are lonely, and when we get hungry the garden has given us an abundance of deliciousness. We admire this family so much we only felt it was necessary to photograph their atmosphere. 

With love,
