Mount Hood Sunrise

If everyone had a chance to see Mount Hood at sunrise early in their life, there would be a lot more people living in Portland, Oregon. And for all of you non-Oregonians out there who think that it doesn’t do anything but rain in Oregon all winter long, well, you might just be right! But the occasional…

Christmas in Boring

Christmas in Boring Oregon comes with the long tradition of our annual community holiday party hosted by the Boring/Damascus Grange. Every year we gather at the Boring Station Trailhead Park, located in the heart of “downtown” Boring. We sing Christmas Carols with our friends and neighbors and await for Santa’s arrival on a decades-old antique…

On the evening of September 21st, my name was etched onto a nondescript paper certificate and in a blur I found myself with a new title: “father.”

Manzanita

Oregon is an amazing place to live, and one of my favorite spots is the tucked away little town on the coast known as Manzanita. (Click on the images below to see larger versions). Of course, Manzanita is just one of the amazing places that Oregon has to offer! If you’re planning a visit or…

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Brian Pasko photography. Brian is absolutely amazing! He possesses a sunny and friendly personality, which makes him a joy to work with. His talents as a photographer is nothing short of spectacular. I was amazed at his abilities to capture the perfect shot based on the setting and lighting. His keen and creative eye catches opportunities that most would not see. Brian is not opposed to pounding the pavement at a feverish pace to chase sunlight. He will hike, roll around in fields or wade knee-deep in rivers to achieve the perfect shot. Brian truly has an adventurous spirit!! Carly and I feel so grateful to have found Brian Pasko. Carly has had the opportunity to work with many wonderful photographers. We have been a part of many incredible shoots. But our session and experience with Brian was by far the most inspiring and enjoyable. We cannot wait to work with him again! Whatever the occasion you might want to commemorate, Brian Pasko will perform the job with flying colors!

It was fun and Brian was very engaging with my daughter with no experience modeling. He made her feel very comfortable trying something new. He made the pictures look amazing. He was open to try new things and different poses. We’ll definitely use him for a family portrait.

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.

Brian was very fun to work with. He was not only amazing at taking photos but also made me feel comfortable. We talked and laughed the whole time. My photos turned out incredible as well! The quality is impeccable and I would recommend Brian to everyone!

During the photoshoot I had a lot of fun, Brian is a very creative and easy going photographer. The fact that he’s so easy going makes you more relaxed and more open to trying new things. Being a shy girl, I immediately broke out of my shell and was ready to take on anything he had planned for me—in the end they all became amazing shots!

Selma J.

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.

I engaged Brian for professional head shots. From fielding my initial inquiry, to setting up a fun, relaxed shoot that 100% captured the look and feel I was hoping for, to advising me on the best final shots to consider, Brian was responsive, a fantastic listener, and extremely skilled in his craft. He knows the art and the business of photography, and is focused on making sure his clients are happy with the final product. I would use him again and highly recommend him to anyone.

Hillary B.

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.

I cannot say enough about Brian Pasko. The pictures he took are amazing. He was so patient and fun with our toddler and helped our teen to come out of her shell and shine. His knowledge of the area ensured our daughter’s smiles were captured in the most serene and beautiful backgrounds. Brian was also incredibly easy to work with. He was professional, flexible, and open to ideas we had. I am already thinking of outfits for photos next season.

Katie H

Brian Pasko is my family and I’s go to photographer! He has very unique and creative ideas! Working with him was a pleasure and he is willing to do anything to get the perfect picture! He photographed my senior pictures and my family pictures! I refer him to all my friends and family when looking for a photographer!

Hailey B.

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!

Laura B.

Brian Pasko is the consummate professional photographer. He is prompt, responsive and passionate about delivering a fantastic product. He is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him again!
