Portland senior pictures — standing in empty bridge roadway downtown Portland

Highschool Senior Pictures | Downtown Portland

I have been working with Nate’s family for many years, from family photos to his older brother’s senior portraits. We’ve spent time in quiet parks, gardens, and familiar spots. So when it was finally Nate’s turn, it felt right that he wanted something completely different. He asked for an urban vibe and downtown Portland views, so we headed to one of my favorite locations in the city that offers bold color, classic Portland skyline, and even a small green space nearby for a change of pace.

We got lucky. The bridge happened to be closed that day, which meant the roadway was ours. Some of my favorite frames from this whole session came out of that empty road.
