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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

I’m in love with this country. I mentioned on the blog here that I was teaching in Norway. Well, I’ve been here since last Wednesday and I’m totally in love with this country. The light is magical (well, at least from what I’ve seen). See,...

Absolutely nothing! Other than that’s the kind of stuff we talked about in my interview on Tamara Lackey’s show reDefine. The show is about 15 minutes long and Tamara asks questions about how I got into the Photoshop/Photography business, what I do in my...

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...

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...

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....

There’s obviously lots of feedback, buzz, interest, and excitement, from Adobe’s announcement yesterday. If you missed it, in a nutshell, Photoshop as we know it is going totally subscription based. So basically, you can’t buy a stand alone boxed or...

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...
I love teaching and photography... In that order. I feel that enjoying photography, and photo editing can get WAY too complicated. So my personal mission (and favorite thing to do), is to create education that simplifies the process of taking great photos, and how to edit them to get the results you’ve always wanted.
