MY MISSION: A great photograph doesn’t just replicate a snapshot in time, it captures the essence of a moment; it allows us to take hold of a memory and cherish it forever.

That is why I am a professional photographer.

I have spent years studying and training so that I can ex"My Mission is to give you and your fampertly create and capture these moments for you and your ily a highly personalized portrait expefamily. rience, beautiful art you will be proud to I believe strongly that my obligation is to do more than just skillfully generate a portrait with my camera. Rather, hang on your wall, and an enduring prodI shoulder the responsibility of preserving memories and uct that your children will someday gift to telling stories through my images—to expose human emotheir grandchildren as a family heirloom." tion, uphold the innocence of youth, document rights of passage, and capture the beauty of creation. My job as your photographer isn’t just to make you or your family look great—that’s a given. You should expect so much more from your photographer.

I am committed to providing a complete service to my clients. Of course, I am going to partner with you to create a one-of-a-kind portrait experience and amazing images that tell your unique story. But after the session is complete I am going to stick with you. I am here to advise you and help you select the best images from your session.

And then I will assist you in custom designing exquisite works of photographic art that will add beauty, character, and value to the walls of your home.

I want to get to know you, and make you feel comfortable throughout this process so that I can help you and your family capture this special moment in your lives. Above all, my sincere hope is to make you a client, and a friend, for life.

Who am I? My passion for photography came from my mother. When I was growing up she was never without her camera.

In fact, whenever I threw a temper tantrum as a child, Mom insisted on documenting my emotional display for posterity (and she still torments me with that photo album to this day)!

When I embarked on a sixth grade trip to Washington D.C.—point and shoot camera in hand—my mom critiqued the images upon my return. And, when I began to seriously explore photography in college, it was my mom who presented me with my first Single Lens Reflex film camera as a birthday gift.

My mom introduced me to photography when I was young and still encourages my passion for it today.

But my mom also taught me that the true value of a photograph is not just the quality of the image, but the story it tells. And as a photographer, nothing gives me more joy than the chance to help someone tell their story through my lens.

As for my story, I’ve had the fortune to play many roles in my life. Expecting Father. Husband.Son. Brother.

Uncle. Dog-Lover. Cat-whisperer. Camp Counselor. Community Organizer. Conservation Advocate. Recovering Lawyer. And so much more. But it is my love and passion for photography that wakes me up every morning with the hope of experiencing something new and creating something beautiful.

(And don’t worry, we’ll create amazing images for you too!)

You can expect to help you every step along the way. This starts with a pre-session phone consultation to answer all of your questions and concerns. And then I will be fully available to you before AND after your portrait session. This includes: • • • • • • • •

Helping you identify the perfect location(s) that is meaningful to you.

Helping you style your session and choose clothing, props and more that will show off your unique personality.

Teaching you to pose like a model to create portraits guaranteed to impress your friends Helping you choose which images to print following your session Helping you design and create custom photographic art for your home.

Solving any problems or concerns that you might have about your shoot.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What if it rains or I have to reschedule?

Life happens (especially in Oregon) and sometimes we just have to roll with it. In the case of bad weather, illness, or unforeseen emergencies, we will reschedule your session for a mutually convenient time. All I ask is that you provide as much notice as you are able. I know you are very busy and I do my best to be flexible. Sometimes life throws me a curve ball too, and I hope that my clients will be equally understanding.

How long will it take me to get my images?

My portrait agreement with you says 2-4 weeks. In reality, I strive to deliver your images to you through an online proofing gallery within 1-2 weeks following your session. This depends greatly on the time of year and the number of clients that are waiting before you.

If you are under a deadline, please let me know and I will do my best to meet your needs How many image proofs will I see?

During your portrait session, we will take a lot of images─most of which you will never see. My job is to cull through those images for you and weed out the ones where you were blinking, had an unflattering look, or otherwise didn’t work out. I identify the best of the best images from your session, fully edit those images, and put them into your online proofing gallery. This usually means about 10-20 final images for each hour of shooting, but it ultimately depends on the success of your individual portrait session.

How do I place my order?

The easiest and best way is to select your images during an in-person ordering session in your home or at my studio. Some people feel pressured by this, so I provide my clients with an online proofing gallery that includes a convenient shopping cart which allows you to place your order online. The downside to this is that I am not physically with you to provide advice in real time, and most monitors are not properly color calibrated (so what you see on your screen might not look exactly like the prints you will receive). If you get overwhelmed or you want the full service of an in person ordering session, please don’t hesitate to call!

How long will my gallery be available?

After your gallery is delivered to you, you will have 30 days to view the image proofs and purchase prints or products. If you make a purchase within 30 days, your gallery will remain open for an additional six months. If you do not make a purchase during this time, you may be charged a reactivation fee.

STEP 3: CREATE YOUR OWN ART! After your portrait session you will receive a link to an online gallery where you can view your images and decide to order prints and products.

PRODUCT GUIDE A portrait session with Brian Pasko Photography is a unique experience and we want to make those memories last. As a result, I am constantly searching for the highest quality products in the industry. My goal is to provide my clients with enduring, heirloom quality artwork that will be passed down for generations to come.

Photographic Prints I offer my clients images produced from nothing but the nations very best professional print labs that use fade-resistant inks and enduring archival quality papers. There is no comparison between the quality of the prints produced through my studio to those made on machines at your local drug store— the colors are more vibrant, flesh tones are accurate, contrast and tint are controlled, and the paper withstands aging and ultraviolet light. I’m proud of the photographs that I produce. I want you to be able to display them beautifully and have them look as amazing years from now as they did when you first placed them on your wall.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...

Brian took photos of our family and several last minute “extras,” and he was so patient with us and our chaos, cracking jokes and keeping us happy and comfortable. We had fun, and the results were absolutely wonderful! He suggested locations and poses that brought out the best in each of us. We are so happy with our photos, and will recommend Brian every chance we get!

Shari L My son was reluctant about the whole senior photo process, but Brian kept the shoot time short and the atmosphere relaxed. He was very professional and responsive to our needs and deadlines. Most importantly, the image quality was superb. We went from reluctant to happy customers with incredible photos to remember our son’s senior year!

Barbara P Brian did a photo shoot of some Sugar Skull makeup I did for my makeup portfolio. It was such an awesome experience working with him he made the photo shoot very fun yet professional and he is very considerate of any needs or concerns you may have! I was blown away when I got to finally see the shots he got of the models/my makeup. Every single one is a very high quality/well edited/shot and just BEAUTIFUL all around! I will definitely be working with him in the future and suggesting him to everyone I know!

Sasha Steifel Sensayshanal Makeup Artistry “Wow” is all we can say regarding Brian’s photography and service experience! We were so incredibly happy with the final product of our high school senior, and his canvas portrait of her will grace our home’s walls from now until the end... Thank You so much Brian for the kind patience in working with your website and all the help you’ve provide us, especially hand delivery of the final portrait to our home, way too kind! We cannot wait to see the work for our next two children in the months and years to come.

Ric B Going into my senior pictures I was nervous about everything. I was nervous that they wouldn’t look good, that my photographer would be rude, I was nervous that I would have a really bad experience. Brian helped me so much and made my senior picture experience so great! He was great about finding a location and helping me figure out what to wear! He was an awesome guy and I am so glad I went to him! If I had to do my senior pictures over again I wouldn’t change a thing! He’s a great guy to work with and the whole experience was beyond fun!

Joely Y My experience working with Brian was awesome! He did my senior photos and I had so much fun! Once we started to take pictures I started to feel more relaxed and experience what it is like being at a photo shoot. I felt like a model in a magazine! So I have to say that Brian Pasko is an awesome photographer and I had a great time working with him on my senior photos.

Abigail S Brian did an excellent job of taking our family photos. We had 8 people in the photo, 3 under the age of 10. He used several different settings and groupings. Brian has a calmness about his work which allowed the rest of us to be relaxed. The results were wonderful. He was very helpful with our selection and size choices. It is hard to visualize what the photo will look like on the wall, and Brian had many devices to help with that. He was also very responsive to my questions. Thank you Brian for a great experience and for preserving our moment in time.

Karla F. Working with Brian was an amazing experience. I felt comfortable the whole time and I could tell he was passionate about his work. The pictures turned out incredible! I will be telling my friends about him in the future.

Bethany G Selma J Our family chose Brian for senior portraits because we knew he’s an excellent photographer, but it was an added bonus to get to see him at work during the photo shoot, and to witness the joy and passion he brings to his photography.

In spite of spending several hours outside with the temperature hovering around 36 degrees, Brian showered our daughter with respect and care (and blankets!). We highly recommend Brian Pasko Photography!
