Photographer and video-maker specializing in music! You can see my work at lukeborsten.com

I'll always be a Pacific NW guy at heart, but I also love seeing new places and making new friends! I've lived in Argentina and Chile, and made music all over the U.S. and beyond. During the summer of 2015 I was on a three month solo music tour that took me around most of the country, after which I traveled the world performing as a Pub Guitarist on cruise ships for two years.

Currently working as a video editor for a creative agency called Sockeye, in Portland OR and still finding time to make music and hike/backpack around the NW!
