Leah Nash and Christopher Onstott are an award-winning photography & videography duo based in Portland, Oregon. They specialize in real people commercial, editorial, corporate, education, and travel photography. Both originally photojournalists, Leah and Christopher take a moment-driven approach, capturing authentic imagery whether in life, at work, or on set. The result is graphic, storytelling, portrait and lifestyle photography that is full of color, light and intimacy. Not averse to dancing (her), telling bad jokes (him) or listening intently (both), their goal is to leave their subjects a little bit better than they found them. All the while creating a wealth of images that look and feel spontaneous. They feel darn proud to work for brands like Apple, Charles Schwab, Microsoft, Chase Bank, Legacy Emanuel Medical Center, The Oregon Symphony, Marriott, and Portland State University. They also shoot for a variety of editorial clients including National Geographic Traveler, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, Mother Jones, NPR, and AARP.

Veronica Martin is a writer based in Portland, Oregon. Her interest in the historical leads her to work with archival material (objects, ephemera), and to research gestures of the past (how people dressed, prepared food, etc., movements lost as technology and tastes changed), examining how this ecology of the past appears and asserts itself here and now. Her poetry and essays have appeared in Vestoj, Kinfolk, Hesperios Journal, Design Week Portland, and other publications. In 2014 she wrote and edited a column for Tin House’s blog, The Open Bar, about the intersection of fashion and literature, called Your Slipcase is Showing.
