One of the aspects of the cathedrals in England that enthralled me was the detail work in every aspect of the building. Obviously millions of hours were put into the beautification of these places of worship by talented artists.
As I walked through the building I randomly shot photos of the different scenes depicted in paintings [...]

I have never owned or learned to use a meter, so I just take some set up shots before hand to make sure I have my settings where I want them and the strobes tuned in. Call me lazy or cheap, but it works for me.
I typically have the model (or someone else helping out [...]

Daylight savings time in the spring is never fun. Spring forward just means losing an hour of sleep and trying to convince your body it is time to get up when it knows it is owed another hour of bliss.

This is some aged/green processed look added to a portrait taken of my little niece. When we were taking the photos I commented that I thought she had a perfect “Gerber Baby” look to her when smiled (which was often).

Lately I have been combing through Flickr and other sites to find photos with post-processing I [...]

This is another photo taken during my walk around Exeter. I had a couple of hours before sound check and wanted to take is as many sights as I could. This doorway within a doorway struck me as interesting.
On the upcoming tour I am hoping to carve out as much time as I [...]

This photo was taken on a short walk from my hotel when traveling in the UK with Donny Osmond in 2004. I was simply astounded by the age and beauty of everything as I walked around
The sky really was close to this dramatic, I just added some contrast to it. The building I [...]

I was playing with the technique called “out of bounds” popularized in several contests at worth1000.com (you can find a tutorial on their site). This may not have been the best photo for it, but it turned out ok. I think it would have been better had the entire seal been visible [...]
