Hi and welcome to the blog. This is where I post recent work projects, weddings, passion projects, and even some personal creative work. I do a variety of photography so it's likely that it will be presented here at one point or another. The blog is updated weekly (Thursdays right now) as of January 2017 and I hope this serves as a platform for communication between me -- the photographer, and you -- the observer. This is also a place for me to air out my creative expression and I hope it gives clients and potential clients another place to get to know their photographer. For more, please check me out on social media. Enjoy!

I could write ten articles to get you up to date with all I've been up to lately, but that'...

It has been longer than I've hoped for since my last blog post and it has me worried about my goals to post once a week as summer approaches. I've already decided, though, that I'm just going to do my best and not beat myself up for failing. That's all I can do:|
Needless to say, I have been busy since my last post just before the Something Blue...

G reetings! My last post about flash photography got me a little fired up this week. I spent some more time thinking about the perils that so many engaged couples face when it comes to choosing their wedding photographer and I recounted my own experience in choosing one (before I was a photographer). My choice came down to price and availability. O...

Flash photography is important. I still hear lots of professional photographers say things and market themselves with phrases like, "I'm a natural light photographer." My advice to anyone looking to hire a photographer for an event or project is to interpret statements like that as caution flag at the very least. While there are lots of "natural li...
