Photographers around Portland?

Anyone know any good photographers around Portland for a professional photoshoot of my M4?

Curious as to how many M owners in Portland area. You and Gregg in LO are the only ones I've come across on the forum. I'm in West Linn, but won't take possession until March/April (week 8 build date). I have seen a white E90 in Tualatin. I have been enjoying the M spotting activity while on the road, just have been unsuccessful. Good luck with finding a photographer, new to the area so do not know of any.

Dashing Tails Photography

My friend does photography and she took some great shots of my M3. She has some samples of her work on her web site.

There's quite a bit E90s and E92s on the roads but I've only seen 2 white F80s but no F82s so far other than my brother's F82

I'm looking for a bit more professional with maybe a nicer camera or something because the shots of your car and others are quite blurry and ordinary it seems (no offense). Plus seeing as you live in Eugene that's a distance to travel for photos. Thanks though.

No worries. Photography is an art and art taste are always subjective. I like the more abstract (blurry) photos and asked her to take those shots (no offense). She has done photo shoots all over the world and had her worked published in magazines, calendars, billboards (at trader shows) and even in one movie. You won't see any of those shots on a web site because photographers get their work stolen off the web too often.

Good luck in your search. Hope to see you guys around I'm in Portland on business often

Nice, I'll keep an eye out for you. Hoping to have mine in April. Did you get it at Portland BMW? I was in there Nov/Dec-erish and they had just received an ordered one in. Just missed it though. I ended up ordering through Salem.

There was a group of E9X owners that quite regularly attended the cars and coffee event in Tigard together. Still a few of us that have them. There is a facebook group, PNW M cars which may open you up to more owners as it isn't specific to the chassis as bimmerpost makes regional sections operate

In any event, an emerging photographer I enjoy attends C&C regularly, younger gentleman named Tyler. He posts up to Flickr here: Flickr, the single worst photo sharing website in existence. A few weeks back he hosted an evolution photoshoot in which we gathered alpine white M's (FXX, E92, E46, E36) and a red E30 M. Pictures are probably within that link.

A link to the E9X PDX get-together discussion--be mindful that the posters own nice sounding engines :P
