As if living in Portland wasn't good enough, we're enjoying a pizza renaissance. Every neighborhood has a delicious option for artisan pie.
The Pizza Weekend pop-up stands out from the crowd with a unique atmosphere, delicious neapolitan crust, and a steadfast commitment to serving our community.
Every time I visit there's a new combination of toppings they're experimenting with, and a good cause for your funds to go towards — during the summer of 2024 all proceeds to pizza sales supported the families of Palestinians fleeing the genocide in Gaza.
The pizza stands on its own merit but there's something about the casual, feel-good nature of enjoying a slice of 'za and knowing that it's part of something greater. The simple pleasures in life often are.
When producing commercial photos for Pizza Weekend, I endeavored to capture not just the charm of their backyard pop-up and the freshness of their ingredients, but the spirit of the place. The way people gather, smile and share while eating their food. The best commercial photoshoots are rife with these infectious qualities.
That’s the SE Portland I’ve come to love.
