Independence Day backyard fireworks - every day is like Christmas! It is such a blessing to just sit back, enjoy time with friends and family, and blow off some super dangerous fireworks! Enjoy some of my favorite shots from our backyard show!
Out scouting locations for a photo shoot. Found this awesome railroad bridge over a little creek. Here is a short video of the bridge - look for a photo shoot soon!
Dateline: Annecy France, on the shores of beautiful Lake Annecy. People talk about their dream jobs or dream careers. I don't know if I have had a dream career but I have had a pretty good time. Maybe my fantasy career would be "International Wedding Photographer". Jetting off to romantic and beautiful spots with the rich and fmaous.. and of course earning a seven figure income! I shoot this photo in Annecy France at a romantic wedding on the shores of Lake Annecy. Does that qualify me an International Wedding Photographer? I think so... The interesting thing is the look…
June is almost over! Hard to believe but July is almost here and the portrait season is in full swing. This is going to be a busy Summer but I still have some time to dedicate to weddings and portraits. Contact me for more information! The portrait above was taken on my just completed road trip out west. It is always a joy to meet a beautiful young lady that has a wonderful spark of joy and happiness. That spark is the reason I so enjoy photography - it is about the people. The photos are just a part of…
A portrait of a tiny pine tree. It somehow has found a way to grow on a cliff in the middle of an old lava field. How did it get there? How does it survive?

February has been a long month and I wish it was Summer! A couple of years ago we took a lat Fall vacation in La Jolla, California. This shot was of one of La Jolla's amazing sunsets. As I look out at the massive snowbanks in Wisconsin part of me wonders what the hell am I doing here!?! I love the change of seasons in Wisconsin. I love the crisp Fall days and I even get excited by the first snowfall. Yesterday I was thinking how beautiful the snow was coming down. But this morning I am thinking that I…
Under pressure - and the valve is too rusted to turn off! So much going on right now and I feel like there is no break in site! Well, that is life sometimes. I am not sure I would be happy with nothing to do. I don't really know what it would be like with nothing to do! So what is going on right now, you ask? Work is crazy busy, it's income tax time, snow snow snow! And I hat shoveling snow! My website is in the midst of a rebuild - more focus and SEO and less randomness.…
It was a rare 50's weather and sunny week in Central Oregon and the coast. While a busy week we did have a little time for site seeing especially on the beautiful central Oregon coastal area. Video is on the way!
