In high school your car is very important.

If it were up to Zuri we would have had half the high school at the shoot all doing doughnuts, bumping bass so the next county could hear. At this point in Zuri’s life he is passionate about two things, … Continued

A night of corrugated metal and cross-processing.

Sometimes the shoots that I enjoy the most are the ones that force me to improvise. I love corrugated metal. We happened to be driving home from another shoot and I spotted this barn. My only light source were the headlights in my truck. This was shot using a toy medium format camera with Agfa-Optima film that was then cross-processed. Very fun.

Snowflakes over red.

It’s not very often you get an opportunity to shoot a portrait at 10,000 feet in the middle of an aspen grove during a snow storm. We loaded up the gear (camera, dogs and an old wooden chair), put the truck in four wheel drive and hoped for the best. This was one of those shoots that I could have packed up after the first capture and been happy. It was hard to take a bad picture. Shara proved not only to be a beautiful subject but put up with the cold weather with a smile on her face.

Follow up to a senior portrait.

Carley just can’t get enough of the camera and we love those freckles!

Summer afternoon and a 1920′s abandoned structure.

Southwestern Colorado is full of very old abandoned buildings. Most make amazing locations for portraits. These photos were taken on a medium format camera which is really fun. It sorta makes you slow down and really compose your photos. Carley … Continued

The inside of a condemned, turn of the century building makes a very dramatic senior portrait.

Sometimes the locked door is the best door.

Who can turn down a bright red door with a big pad lock on it. Kacie is one of those women who just knows how to look at the camera.

A family of three is now a family of four!

Sunny Day + Lots of Green Grass = Fun Country Style Family Session!

I’ve photographed this family before and it’s been fun to watch the children grow up. They have a beautiful ranch in Southwest Colorado with lots of open space and green grass. What more could I ask for? Oh yeah, horses! … Continued

Long, lanky limbs coupled with the knowledge of basic physics makes for a mean climber.

Sam grew up in Southwest Colorado in the rural town of Ridgway. I sometimes feel like the “Climber” stereotype is one who has large muscles and a fearless attitude so naturally, when I met fresh out of high school Sam with his long, lanky limbs, HULKAMANIA T-shirt, college grad vocabulary and rather geeky aspirations in life I was a bit skeptical of the level of climber he was going to be. I couldn’t have been more wrong. He not only had the form and experience but he was willing to take a 20+ foot fall (which I now know is called a “Whipper”) just so I could take a picture of it. I’m glad his mom was out of the country. Anyway, we got some great photos and I have no doubt this kid is going places in life.
