About Me

Hi there! I’m Cassie Duffle. I’m an Okie transplant loving life in Portland, Oregon with my amazing family. My mornings? They don’t start without coffee—enough to power a small village (or at least get me through the day). Evenings are for wine, takeout, and Netflix. It’s a balancing act I’ve got down to a fine art.

My first love is travel. Forget diamonds, I’m all about passports and boarding passes. I’ve explored China, Iceland, Greece, France, Italy, and England, but let’s be honest—my travel bucket list could rival War and Peace in length. If National Geographic ever wants a travel photographer, I’m ready, camera in hand and suitcase by the door.

My proudest title by far is Mom. My daughter is a total wiz kid and a soccer powerhouse. #mombrag, but she’s basically a superhero in cleats. When I’m not out in the world creating, you'll catch me cheering from the sidelines like it’s my job.

I’m also a true right-brained artist who loves to create. Whether I’m experimenting with a new Thai recipe (I’ve mastered multiple curries) or designing a sculpture for a set design, I find joy in the process of bringing ideas to life. From the kitchen to the craft room, there’s nothing I won’t try to DIY. Between my passion for travel and love of creating, I’m always chasing new experiences, embracing every moment, and finding inspiration in all corners of life.

About my Art

I’m not just a photographer—I’m a creator. “Auto-enhance” isn’t even in my vocabulary. I believe in authenticity, which is why I meticulously hand-edit every single photo, bringing soul and heart to each piece. A self-proclaimed color expert, I can spot a shift in hue or saturation that most would need a microscope to see. But my creativity doesn’t stop at photography. I dabble in everything from digital design to sculpture, painting, and set design. Basically, if it involves making something beautiful, I am in my element, turning ordinary into extraordinary with every brushstroke and pixel tweak.

About my experience

With an MBA in hand and a decade of experience in marketing, brand strategy, communications, and design, I’ve worn just about every hat there is in the world of marketing. My background is a unique blend of education and business, giving me the versatility to work seamlessly across industries. From early childhood classrooms to higher education administration, I’ve seen it all. I can talk child psychology one minute and craft a killer social media strategy the next. Whether it’s managing a team, launching a campaign, or rolling up my sleeves to dive into the work, I’m the one balancing all the plates, keeping the traffic moving, and making sure we cross the finish line.
