I have a thing for the earthy-urban vibe! You know, the non-conformists you find on the city streets of Seattle & Portland in wool shirts & Goodwill jeans: a total Pacific Northwest feel. My sister tried to get me on the style-track to hyppie-ness when she gave me a distressed-leather purse and natural-fiber, Seattle-brand skirt for my birthday. The look feels slightly transplanted on the streets of Hermiston, but it’s taking root.
When I spotted Shelby & Alisha taking senior pictures on Main Street in Hermiston, I was struck by their style: flannel shirts, skinny jeans, leather moccasins, headband & shoulder bag. They looked like they had been transplanted straight from a profile on Urban Weeds: a Portland street fashion blog by photographer, Lisa Warninger. So, I asked the girls if I could shoot them. They obliged. We laughed lots & came away with this fotoNovella:
Meet Shelby: she graduates from Umatilla High School next spring!
Meet Alisha: she’s from Umatilla & is starting beauty school in Pendleton this winter.
Thanks for letting me crash your fotoshoot, Shelby & Alisha!
