Enko Photography is Sarah Giffrow and Ben Klusman, a photography team based in Portland, Oregon. Sparks flew when we connected over our love of awesome photography and we found that, hey, we work pretty well together! We kept the fireworks going by connecting with all kinds of people and bringing them to life on camera (hence, the name). Enko grew wings in May of 2007, when we moved to Portland and launched our own studio.

We're all about putting our perspectives together, experimenting with light and concept, and collaborating on fresh, artistic images for a variety of clients and genres. When you work with us, you might see Sarah, Ben, or a combination of the two. We’ll both be working on your shoot, whether it's through planning, post-processing, or bringing your prints and products together. There's no project too big and no session too small. We bring our own brand of creativity into everything we do, no matter who you are.

Hate getting your picture taken? No worries, we get it! That’s why Enko strives to give you an enjoyable, pain-free photography experience. We're pretty relaxed-and-groovy people, and that's how we want you to feel. If you're expecting your photographer to stand behind a tripod and holler at you to move your pinky a half-millimeter to the left—well, that's just not who we are. Maybe it's Ben's love for sailing talking, but we'd rather keep things laid-back and steer the boat with a bit more finesse. Basically, we're photographers simply because we love what we're doing, whether it's hiking, climbing, or rolling around in the dirt to get that perfect shot. The best part is when we get to hand that perfect shot to you.

Oh, and we also know kung fu.
