Last night I still had my lights set up from some previous shooting and decided to take some self-portraits. I figure when I don’t have anything else to shoot, I might as well volunteer to be my own subject. I like trying to cement in my head some of the differences in ways I can [...]

Passport Photos – Lightroom Template
Posted in Tutorials on Oct 10th, 2010
My lovely bride and I are going on an out-of-the-country cruise next year, and though I have a current passport Heather does not. Of course rather than get a photo taken at a local story with their lovely house fluorescent lighting, I did a quick set up to take our own.
When I sat down to [...]
Nicole & Brodie – Sneak Peak
Posted in Photos on Jun 14th, 2010
This last weekend I had a great time in sunny Phoenix, Arizona with the responsibility of photographing a wonderful wedding. I have a ton of photos to work through, pick the best and do the processing to make them look as good as possible. I figured I’d share a couple of photos for a “sneak [...]
Portrait Fun
Posted in Photos on Jan 7th, 2010
One of my goals this year is to do more photos just for the sake of experimentation and getting better. Of course to do that I need to get out more to take scenery, find interesting objects, and beg friends to be willing victims.
A little before Christmas I brought my camera gear into work to [...]
Last night I had the opportunity to help out a little on a Lightroom workshop being taught by my buddy Scott Jarvie. He has been doing these fairly regularly in an effort to both share with the photographer community, but also refine his teaching skills.
Those who know me are aware of my propensity to get [...]
Daddy’s Little Princess
Posted in Photos on Sep 16th, 2008
Starting off this week of “child” themed portraits, my goal is to capture kids in ways that express their personality. My baby girl is full of energy and always looking to smile and have fun. Just out of her evening shower she was happy and bouncing around (doing the “naked dance” that all [...]
Wish You Were Here
Posted in Photos on Sep 15th, 2008
In my couples themed shoot with my wife, we made a variety of images, including the last one I posted while goofing around. Today’s shot was from the same series, but I asked my wife to just lay her head on my shoulder. I was thinking of an end of the day hug [...]
I’ll Watch Out For You
Posted in Photos on Sep 10th, 2008
My niece and nephew helped me make this image by walking up and down a nearby field. We were there to take just some “couples” themed photos of their parents (which will likely appear on another day this week), but I ended up liking this photo of them best.
Though my original intent was to capture [...]

Peace and Tranquility
I got out one night on my vacation in Pismo Beach with a little time to enjoy the sunset and my camera. I took my tripod hoping to find a location I could emulate the low angle, long exposure style of one of my favorite Flickr contacts, xinapray.
First off, I found it very [...]
The Other Side
Posted in Photos on Apr 21st, 2008
This girl was having her photo taken by her brother. I took this photo and then asked if I could snap a few others. She was very happy to oblige. I’d really like to get back in to doing a bit more outdoor portrait work as I enjoy capturing the poses and expressions. I need [...]
