Kayla had some ideas for a towel shot, so we figured we'd make a whole boudoir shoot out of it. It's been awhile since I've done a shoot like this, but we figured it out. Kayla rocked it, as always, and we ended up with some great images. The window light was great, but we... Continue Reading →
Apparently I never wrote about switching from Canon to Sony?! Let's fix that. I got my first Canon back in 1988. It was an AE-1 and I loved it. I shot through rolls and rolls of film. I took a class from a photo place in town and shot school sports, portraits, wildlife, weather--anything I... Continue Reading →
I have a tendency to overbook myself when I come to Portland. Obviously, I want to spend as much time as possible with family, but there are other people I need to see when I'm here, too. My three favorite models are some of those people. I have a shoot with all three planned for... Continue Reading →
It's Western Art Week in Great Falls, and a buddy of mine asked me to help with the Quick Draw event of the Out West Art Show at the Heritage Inn. When I agreed, I didn't realize Supaman would be performing. I'm glad I always have my camera with me--I'd have been pissed if I... Continue Reading →
My buddy Steve mentioned that he was going to run down to the Hardy Creek Bridge area of the canyon to shoot the ice blocks on the Missouri. The weather was perfect, so I headed over there with him. I've driven through this canyon that runs between Great Falls and Helena a million times, and... Continue Reading →
I've been trying to come up with a metal-themed print for the wall of my buddy's office building. I shot trains, random abstract metal, and anything else I could think of, but none of them really impressed me. Then I realized it needed to be a portrait. Luckily, I have friends with kids who thought... Continue Reading →
I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I didn't explore as much as I'd have liked when I was a kid living in Central Montana. Now that I'm back, I'm having a blast exploring all the little reservoirs along the Rocky Mountain Front. Dad and I fished Holter Lake for the most part, but never... Continue Reading →
When I was a kid, my sister and I would take the Greyhound bus between Missoula and Great Falls. We started out sitting in the front seat so the bus driver could keep an eye on us, but as we got older, we moved further and further back in the bus. On one trip, there... Continue Reading →
UPDATE 9/2019: The move from Squarespace to WordPress broke a few things. In this particular instance, the pretty graphs that Squarespace provides. I'm working on a solution, but until then, this post will not make a lot of sense. 🙂 It's that time of year again. Time to get geeky with the numbers from 2018.... Continue Reading →
When I was in high school, I would drive out along Giant Springs Road and park by the railroad bridge. There was usually something interesting down the hill by the water--a shopping cart, a bike, etc. I don't remember there ever being trailheads, though. It's entirely possible they were there, but my teenage self was... Continue Reading →
Mom and I had a mission to visit every brewery in the Missoula area. Yeah, I know--it's not as lofty a goal as visiting every brewery in Portland, but it was a goal. It's important to have goals. We're going to need new goals now. Conflux was the last on the list, and it didn't... Continue Reading →
For the past 20 years, I've been suffering through Portland "winters". Basically 6-9 months of solid gray skies and rain. When we did get a day or two of snow in the metro area, the whole city would shut down. Now that I'm back in Montana, I love every single damn snowflake. I woke up... Continue Reading →
