September brought another great year of Feast Portland! The four day food and drink festival just gets better and better every year. I love working on this event and have fun catching up with so many friends from the food and beverage community. While it’s one of the most intense projects of the year, with days of post-production following the long shooting days, I can’t help but love it. Feast is like a school reunion and summer camp rolled into one, with some of the best food and drink around.
Feast pulled out all the stops this year: expanding the Grand Tasting into The Big Feast, a kid-friendly event in partnership with Tillamook, and dozens of smaller events, dinners, and after parties. This year we had to contend with a day of rain on the final day, but it didn’t put a damper on the festivities.
Since I was more focused on photographing all the action, I didn’t get to eat much of the gorgeous food that was on offer. However, of the few bites I did have, the highlights were the PDX Sliders mushroom burger, sticky rice with raspberries and mango from Nong’s, the Kachka corn dog, and a small bite of Thai curry from David Thompson’s Khong Thai that Brooke from Little Green Pickle generously shared with me. Enjoy the photos below!
