Golden Hour
Posted on December 15, 2022
Everything I ever learned I learned in ancient mythology. Long hair is never just long hair. It has special powers. Take Meaghan, for instance, a structural engineer. Her golden tresses keep her brain warm and limber for hefty work—creating sketches, visualizing designs, and drafting specs, everything that’s needed to turn ideas into solid structures. Magnificent!

Indoor and Outdoor Portraits

Winter crawls ever closer, gnarled hand by sharpened claw. But we’re fortunate to have a figure to protect us. An actor by day and a bright emblem at night, Abisola is the very picture of springtime, flinging butterflies and yellow beams of light. Radiant!

Author’s Portrait
Posted on July 14, 2022
Behind every book is an author with a story. As with most people, this story is a long one with many twists and turns. There are three things that ground retired firefighter and writer Christy Warren during challenging times: her wedding band, her watch, and her tattoo. As a photographer, I particularly like how all three, in the first set, subtly lead to her face and eyes and glorious gray hair. Of the different color treatments, I personally love the black and white version best and hope it’s used to helped represent Christy and her story. Which treatment do you prefer?

Portrait of a Fireman
Posted on May 18, 2022
Firefighters make great subjects. Like most people, they carry their stories in their eyes and mouths, but mainly in their eyes, where different shades of intensity gleam. In the coming weeks, I’ll be spending time at a firehouse and am eager to see (and share) what I capture, hopefully a mix of candid headshots, environmental portraits, and maybe even documentary work on a call the firehouse runs. Stay tuned!

An aspiring business pro with big dreams

Lots of fun working with James in the field
He was willing to chase light and explore scenes
