I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but my kids are totally addicted to the Discovery channel. From the Deadliest Catch to every show you can imagine, they watch it constantly. This past April I remember seeing previews for an upcoming show called North America. Being a...

Hey everyone. I just got back from co-teaching a workshop with Bill Fortney (and his gang at His Light Workshops), and I thought I'd share some photos today. We had a great workshop as usual. Everyone was really into shooting and learning how to post-process. I always...

We're 4 days into our Washington workshop and we've had about as much variety as you can imagine. First we started off in the Palouse area of Washington. Then we drove up to Mt. Rainier for a day, and now we're at Port Angeles near Olympic National Park. It's been a...

We've had a great first couple of days at my workshop here in Washington state with Bill Fortney and gang. We started off in the Palouse area and did a sunset shoot from Steptoe Butte the other evening. I've been up to Steptoe before, and it's been REALLY windy. The...

Happy Friday everyone. I'm officially back from 8 days in the beautiful country of Norway. What an amazing place. I swear that every corner I turned while driving around Norway showed yet another postcard picturesque view. It was a photographers paradise. And what's...

Last year I participated in an air-to-air workshop with Moose Peterson. I wrote about it here, and I think it gives a good perspective on what it was like to experience the workshop. But that's not the point of my post. Just a couple weeks ago, some one had mentioned...

You'd think I'd be used to this lesson, but for some reason I seem to get it over and over again. I must be a slow learner 🙂 Anyway, last week while in Los Angeles, I did some research on 500px.com and found a great place called Corona Del Mar right along the coast...

Happy Friday everyone. I've probably mentioned it before, but 500px is the website I go to for my photo inspiration. During my usual 500px.com surfing, I tend to "favorite" a lot of photos and I figured I'd post them here every now and then. Rather than taking the...

I came across an article the other day, from a blog called Jonas Hellsen Photography. It made such an impact on me, and struck a chord that I wanted to share it. See, he touches on the topic of getting it right in camera and poses the thought that retouching is...
