BatchFoto/Lake Oswego Jeweselers Ad Campaign Photo Shoot

Tim shooting me on day one. I'm wearing $50,000 in jewelry :o

Sunday and Monday I was fortunate enough to be part of a BatchFoto/Lake Oswego Jewlers ad campaign photo shoot. It was shot by Tim of BatchFoto and assisted/art directed by world reknowned photographer Christopher Lee. The wildly talented Nancy Burke did an amazing job with hair and make up on all the models, and Tiah and Travy of Lake Oswego Jewelers put the shoot together absolutely flawlessly. The two day shoot was so professional, smooth, a complete breeze and honor to be part of!!


The 50k in jewlry up close!!

Photo Shoot With BatchFoto

I finaly got to work with my favorite photographer Tim with BatchFoto (www.BatchFoto.com) last night. It was such an honor to work with him and I'm so excited how the raw images turned out I can't wait to see them edited!!! :D
I met Tim at Aura night club where my roomate dj's and he is the photo manager. His shots are epic, he has a beautiful studio, it's not surprising it was amazing to work with him. Hopefuly I will have the honor to do it again in the future!

Me, um, not working hard while Tim sets up :)

Photo Shoot With Kendal Carr and Chontae

This was the second shoot I had done with Kendal (www.kendalcarr.com) out in DC. We met at a make up shoot, and I was fortunate enough that he asked me to shoot again! It was a really fun, creative shoot with just the 3 of us (of course I had to bring my resident make up artist, and one of the most talented and professional in the country, Chontae :) For the bottom shots it took her almost 2 hours to bedazzle me, but the make up is so original and really stands out! In the top shots, Mr Lighting extrodinaire really proved his name using 9 light boxes to make the actual make up room we used transform into something beautiful. (Katelin shirt made by me :) Same with the dumpster in the below shots. When I was wandering around his studio I saw the dumster and thought it would be fun juxtaposition to the gown I had made :) Kendal added the light umbrella and metal piece as a hat, and with the gorgeous make up the shots turned out amazing! It was a super fun shot, and as always I am so thankful to get to work with such talented people!!

A Week Out In Portland



Work during the day, raging the hottest clubs in town at night. Special thanks to Robert John at Dirty Nightclub, Tim Batchelor of Batch Foto, Joey of PTL nightlife, Josh of Napkin Nights, and Helen for taking all the amazing pics. xoxox
(Ps you can click on a pic to see it full size :)


Bar XV For Cinco Di Mayo

My favorite party of the week is Wednesday nights at Bar XV IN Night Life hosts and Dj Tj usualy spins

Since I just got back from New York, while there I bought Tash and I matching shirts.

Of course we weren't drinking those bottles. They were just props.

My fav pic of the weekend. Says it all!
(Me, Tash, Kevin, Tj, and Helen)

Ha! I love the crazy look in Helen's eyes!!!

Tash and I. My mullet looks awwweesome.


Friday Night @ Urban Studio For The Casino Royale Party

(Special thank you to Josh, and Amir for getting us in)

Tash and I tried to dress in theme...

Then Dirty Nightclub

Tim took this cute pic of Dirty's Photographer, Robert John.
Then Bar XV

Had to stop in to hear Dj Wicked. Who we went to see the night before at Goodfoot.

Then to Dirty Nightclub

Had to hear the epic Jimmy Z spin in the techno room

Seamless Sundays @ Stars Bridgeport

After a week of parting like Tash and I do, we decided to take it casual. Plus we're gangster so we wear sweats to the club. obviously.

Sundays are always a blast here, Tj spinning techno, and hanging out with The Ninjas :)


So, a proper recap of my favorite and the hottest clubs in Portland. For only being here five months, I am so thankful to all the friends I've made here.
