Founded by International Award-winning landscape photographer, Brian Geraths. At age 21 he moved from Pendleton to Portland with one vision - to sell his limited edition works in a fine art gallery.During the pandemic of 2020, Brian saw his oil-painting friend Graham Salisbury disregarding the value of his artistic talent. Brian recognized an innate talent that might never be seen without a website while the world was in lockdown, so he offered to market Sailsbury Paintings for a commission.After first reworking www.GrahamSalisbury.com, Brian built him a separate site for www.SalisburyPaintings.art to reveal what Geraths calls a "Renaissance Man."After selling several pieces of Salisbury's Art, Brian Geraths began working on his original dream, building his site www.Gratitudaholic.com" for his fine art photography (not portraits).Once completed, he remodeled his portrait studio lobby (a.k.a. Brian's "day job" at Studio B Photography) adding walls for more gallery display space. Two businesses that have perfectly complimented one another.Brian's photography work at Studio B evolved into mostly B2B services such as #headshots , #lifestylephotography and #360productphotography - all services that freed up his weekends to invest more time in capturing images for his scenic collection of #fineartphotography . What started as a dream to travel globally, like a National Geographics photographer, came full circle by his photography and service to others. "At age 21 my photography mentor told me I needed to do portraits 'not just landscapes.' which didn't sit well with me. Then he added - 'you can keep shooting those scenes, just put people in front of them, and there you have custom art!' - I disagreed until receiving numerous awards in both categories.A Kodak Gallery Award (and Fuji Masterpiece) for a scenic called Mystic Beach, then another Kodak Gallery Award for a family, & several other awards for Senior Portraits, Kids & Babies."Welcome to my dream."

Specializing in Headshots in Portland OR & Lake Oswego as well as lifestyle marketing Images. If you do your homework, you'll see that Studio B was only named in August of 2019, but it's a rebrand/brand-combining of my two businesses - Prints Charming Photography (est 8/1/96) & Photo Media (est 2016). Prints Charming was clever/catchy 20+ years ago, but just a tad too cute for the level of clients I now serve.When I hung the proverbial shingle in '96, it was with the intent to lean toward business services. Steeped in retail management and merchandising for 20 years, it seemed the perfect fit. After 20 years as "Prints Charming", I now get to pour that pent up creativity into helping other businesses to grow THEIR bottom line with award-worthy, photographic marketing images, so the name just had to go... (guaging by the caliber of new clients on my calendar #brandingmatters) To those of you that have frequented me through this third/likely-final name (i.e. Portland Rose Festival Foundation, Principal Financial, Buckley Law and many more) THANK YOU for knowing/trusting that I wasn't selling the biz... STILL ME, thus the B. : ^)

Official Headshot Photographer to the 15+ city-wide school princess candidates for queen. 20 courts = 300 princesses and 21 queens (including Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan in 2005)In 1999 I was selected to create a unified look for the Princesses and Queen. In 2015, the Portland Rose Festival Foundation, in gratitude for my 15+ years of service, submitted my name to Portland's Royal Rosarians to consider for honorary Knighthood. On June 5th 2015, I was knighted by the 100th Rose Festival Queen Emma Waibel. (who happened to be my PT studio manager at the time of her Knighting me - making for an even more iconic photo for both of us)

Professional portrait, wedding and headshots. Images for Work & Life. Headshots, Composites, HS Seniors, Weddings, Family & Babies. The first, of what became many, studios by this name - Oregon was the first. In February 2016, the commercial brand Photo Media Productions was added to separate from personal services.In August of 2019, both brands were reunited under the existing studio name of Studio B Photography. (for simplicity - the reputation of both prior names may be searched to find the same happy client comments)You Have a Story, That We LOVE to Tell!..Scenic, emotion-filled photography, that you won't find on a post card...

Expert Contributor and Cover Photographer

clerical - managerial. Prior to the existence of the department-wide Store Director position, I saw benefit for such diversity and entered management in several departments. Discovering my transferable skills and entrepreneurial tendencies, it led me to the path of self employment.As manager of the Sixth and Alder location in the early 90's, I made my mark by thinking outside of the box, and altering my departments' mix to accommodate the downtown shopper. Beginning with a small Nutrition Center, my responsibility became 65% of the store mix, as I applied the same organizational tools to reduce inventory, expand on fast-selling items, and to extend our sales reach outside of the store walls. Making personal calls and deliveries to area hotels and restaurants, we were able to provide a larger volume than our shelves could stock, especially by catering to the downtown lunch crowd and summer tourism. It inspired me to create Prints Charming...

Seeking mentorship from a professional in Pendleton Oregon, led me to Louis M. Ver Baere, formerly of Chicago.In our second year, he offered me his entire studio, for merely a signature of trust that I would keep his legacy alive. I declined the offer soley because I could not remain in Pendleton, and in July of 1986 moved to Portland to start from scratch.I created managerial and sales tracking modules to compare his greatest year prior to my involvement. Through active networking and community involvement, a tripling of sales occurred, giving evidence of my effective marketing skills.Before passing in 1993, Lou gifted me the camera's that eventually paved the path to Prints Charming Photography in Portland Oregon.His inspiration to continue learning until the day he died, has given legs to my own desire to never stop growing in an industry that is filled with "satisfactory" work.I strive to be "One of the greats" that he continually admired in our industry!
