Connor takes a moment out of his day to pose in front of the newly completed picket fence. He is lit with a softbox on camera right with the sun as a backlight. The fence is one of the three projects that I finished this year. The other two are a sandbox and a bed. I’ll show some pictures of those soon.
These shots are from an early morning walk on the shores of the southern tip of Maury Island. I used a small off-camera flash to illuminate the foreground and retain the blue sky.
Leaving only my footprints behind.
Some of the news anchors at Q13 recently asked me to shoot some new headshots for social media sites.
I went to Seattle last night with the hopes of getting a good shot of the “super moon” from Kerry Park. We arrived before sunset and found dozens of other photographers already there with their cameras and tripods out, lining the wall, waiting for the moon to make an appearance. I got some shots of [...]
Connor enjoys a Cheerio and milk break while we take a walking tour of the University of Washington campus. We’re currently at Red Square and in the background is Suzzallo Library.

Connor took a nap on the couch today and I couldn’t help getting a shot of him in the sunbeam from the front door. I had my 20″ softbox ready so I added it behind him as a backlight. My favorite shot ended up being this one that I was going to use to document [...]
This is my first attempt at making salsa. I photographed the process with my Pentax 50mm 2.0 and lit with a wireless strobe bounce off the ceiling. It was pretty tasty stuff and fun to shoot while cutting. Click on any of the small photos to see them large.
