Portland Fashion Photographer: Happy New Year!

It's officially a new year! I hope your New Years Eve celebrations were a blast, whether you were at home on your couch or out on a dance floor!
I had a little bit of both worlds at Aloft Hotel where Jelani and I were able to enjoy a night away from home. I didn't realize they have a fabulous lounge called the W XYZ bar on site as well. When I arrived to check in I asked the front desk where the hotel lobby was, haha. It was so -over-the-top-trendy that I thought for sure I had stumbled upon a restaurant.
Since it's not our thang to stay out all night dancing up a storm, we sat down a storm at the movies and watched "Perks of Being a Wallflower" before returning to the lounge for our toast and a 2013 first dance!

Here's me and J all dressed up for a nice of champagne, toasts and dancing...

And outside the elevators, Jelani is wishing I didn't have a camera in my hands...

Nice picture! Sounds like you had a good time. My lover and I would've preferred the movie as well :)
Happy New Year! Looking forward to more of your photography!
