Meet Rogers. 🎬

She’s a badass. She’s a leader. She doesn’t blink first. I want to be her when I grow up 😉

We just wrapped our first week of filming and being on set feels so good. This cast and crew have been such a joy. What an awesome team.

Getting to play and have fun and call it my job feels really great. And doing that alongside true professionals, some of the best in the industry here in Portland? Even better.

Thank you to my team at @theoptionagencytalent for believing in me!

There’s plenty more to come. Lots of surprises. Lots of movie magic. Stay tuned!

Thank you @picturethisportland @oregonmediaproduction for hosting such a wonderful event for our film community.

It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces even if you didn’t see mine 👽👽😂😂.

I absolutely love artist shots!! Capturing them in the moment of creating their monsters is why I love photography. These are moments that happen in less than a heartbeat. With the push of a button, they're eternal. Taken at @transworldshows this year.
