Toledo Images photography at work. Here is a repost from @willametteweek Ex-Blazer Terry Porter is hosting a resurrected WW event: Candidates Gone Wild, on Monday, 10/17 @ Revolution Hall. One part debate, two parts variety show, this event gives local and statewide candidates a reason to slip out of their pantsuits and khakis as they compete in a variety show and pop-culture-spoofing skits. Watch local candidates let loose. #toledoimages #melissatoledo #PhotographyServices #PhotographyBusiness #photographer #marketing #photographersofportland #Portland #PDX #BusinessServices (at Esplanade Downtown Portland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkTn6zev-I1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tonight I visited my installed photographs for the first time and it was truly an powerful moment. 🖼️📷 I'm want to say, once again, how honored I am to have be chosen by my sisters at @adelantemujeres to create all the powerful portraits of inspirational Latinas in their lobby. 📷❤️🙏 A special Thank You to my Toledo Images crew, @votaw and @celia.leitch 🙏🙏 #toledoimages #melissatoledo #photographerlife #photographer #latina #puertorican #PhotographyServices #photographybusiness #wallgraphic #wallmural #largewallart #lobbyart #gallery #aztecdancers #aztec #aztecdancer #oregon #pnw #usa #heritage #latinassupportinglatinas #latinos #latinpride #empowerment #portraits #inspiration (at Adelante Mujeres) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChyhSezrlmG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

After a #portrait photoshoot down by the waterfront, I found myself in the Nike store in front of a mirror...I figured it was a good time for a selfie 🤳 😁📸 #toledoimages #melissatoledo #photographer #behindthescenes #atworkselfie #onlocationphotography #Portland #pdx #PhotographyServices #smallbusiness #womanownedbusiness (at Niketown Downtown Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeFiFQFOmG7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I photographed the magnificent Vampires Masquerade Ball last night at the Portland Art Museum. 🧛‍♀️🧛‍♂️📸 This gig was actually on the books before quarantine. Fast forward a roof cave-in at the museum and COVID...to say it was good to be there would be an understatement. #toledoimages #melissatoledo #eventphotography #eventphotographer #atwork #atworkselfie #smallbusiness #PhotographyServices #Portland #vampires #vampiremasquerade #vampiresball #event #photographer #nikon (at Portland Art Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeKC3y1vN-3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#digitaltearsheet Melissa Toledo photographed this brand Campaign image for @votevadim . 📸 We believe photography plays an important role in establishing legitimacy and getting your message out. And that's why @toledo_images endorses every candidate we photograph. 👍🏼🇺🇲 // // #toledoimages #melissatoledo #photographersofportland #photographybusiness #PhotographyServices #photographer #marketing #businessphotography (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJYgroviTs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

At our recent shoot with @adelantemujeres, I took a moment with my crew to look around at the set up. I was confused at all the light coming in when I looked up and noticed the sky light right above the set. Erg…no bueno! Why is this a big deal? Well, as a photographer my job is to control the light on my set. Outside variables beyond my control, like a sky light, need to be dealt with so my images come out the way I intend. What did we do? Lucky for us it was a big room and our solution was simple. We moved the entire set forward about 4 feet. Whew! This Toledo Images Behind-the-Scenes moment of me and @votaw was captured by my eagle-eye Photography Assistant @celia.leitch // // #toledoimages #behindthescenes #onlocation #melissatoledo #facemask #photographer #photoshoot #marketing #marketingstrategy #businessphotography #businessphotographer #latina #femalephotographer #photographerlife #smallbusinessowner #smallbusiness #photographybusiness #pnwphotographer #onlocationshoot #onlocationphotography #covid19 #covidphotodiaries #covidphotography #safetyfirst (at Adelante Mujeres) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZuF9ZBvfi/?igshid=1uld3q8rmc2bc

Hi everyone. I hope you are all hanging in there. Truth be told, my photography business has all but come to a screeching halt. And it makes me sad when I find myself looking at this behind-the-scenes image with nostalgia … when it was just last year. And now it’s time to start looking forward! So coming out of this Pandemic we will see various changes. And until we get vaccinated, the wearing of masks during shoots and events will become common practice for Toledo Images. Stay safe. Thank you PDX! Besitos!
