Sisters…already working models in Portland and Seattle!
New photos for their portfolios…

Madeleine asked if she could come back again for her
birthday next week. That’s how much fun she had.
I sent the link to their agents. I can’t wait to hear their
responses. I know they are going to be as thrilled as I am. My
husband loved the pictures and feels they will give a HUGE boost to
their careers. You captured their personalities perfectly, and I am so
happy I am speechless.
Thank you again.
All the Best,
Kate (mom)

Peggy iileen,
I just finished assembling Nikki’s portfolio with the pictures you took a couple of weeks ago. I’m still amazed at the beautiful girl you captured with your camera. Of course, I’m the mom, but your work was amazing!! Thank you, too, for your patience and great advice and instruction. I am happy to throw your name around to ANYONE who is looking for photos, for any reason. Thank you again, You’re amazing.
Best Regards, Jill
P.S This is Nikki here. I can’t believe how good you made me look in the jumping shots! you really know how to get a quick shot! I also love how you did my hair in the prom shots. You are the best!!

Actor and Senior portraits, Eugene, Oregon
This is the lovely Helene Morse…talented actress and singer, starting her senior year at Interlochen Art Academy in Michigan. You may recognize her from numerous stage performances in and around Eugene.
I first photographed Helene when she was 14 for an actress headshot. I acted as her manager for a minute and found her a local agent.
Her mom told me that as her manager I told Helene she should always be studying her craft…and that is why she is full time immersed at Interlochen. Pat Morse, Helene’s mom is a well known piano teacher in town and she is so happy her daughter is fulfilling her dream. My heart is so full!
Helene is beaming with happiness and my goodness! has blossomed into a fine young woman…
with wonderful strengths.
I see great things in her future. Nice to know you Helene.

Oh my! What can I say…just a treat to photograph Kaylen.
She’s a four year old pro! And those big brown eyes!

Kendyl is a graduate of my Modeling Class…new photos for her book!

Hi Peggy Iileen!
This is Maddi Shortt, a graduate from your modeling classes!
I wanted to let you know that I just signed with Ryan Artists up in Portland!
You prepared me so well for everything from knowing what to wear to go-sees to how to be comfortable in front of a camera. The photo shoot experience and portfolio really helped me enter the modeling business. I would definitely recommend your class to anyone hoping to enter the industry.
Thanks so much!
Hope you are well,
Maddi
