    CONCACAF Gold Cup Event Photography – Part 3: Planning The Gear

    CONCACAF Gold Cup Event Photography – Part 2: Planning The Trip

    I’ve said the words many times. I’ve heard many-a-person say the same. “I’m A Planner.” Well, I think everyone is a planner… to different degrees.  Sometimes when I talk about my travel and event photography work, I see a lot of gaping mouths and a lot of ‘wow’ comments; the same as when I watch…

    Seattle Event Photography: Disaronno Mixing Star 2015

    I love being challenged in a photo shoot. I love having to make fast adjustments – it keeps me on my toes. Back in 2003 I got my Private Pilot license.  When I completed the test I was talking to my flight instructor about next steps and he asked me about my intentions.  I said…

  • Seattle Real Estate Photography: Updated Ballard Craftsman

    Seattle Real Estate Photography: Updated Ballard Craftsman

    I was never sure what neighborhood to say this house was in.  I preferred to call it Ballard, but since it was east of 8th (by just a couple feet) and north of 65th (by less than half of a block), some said it was in Phinney Ridge, while others said Greenwood.  So I coined…
