Wedding Photography

I thought you might like to see a couple shots I was able to snap off while I was helping my friend Steve set up for a wedding last month. It was a tent wedding, which was held at Semiahmoo.

Real Estate Photography

Yesterday afternoon I was able to go with my friend Angela to a home she and her husband built in order to take some architectural photographs for their upcoming website. It was great to stretch my legs in this new kind of photography. The editing process for architecture is very different than that of portraits, so it was a nice change and a fun challenge.

More Northwest-Rocky-Not-Sandy-Beach Shots

I thought, after taking pictures of rocks last weekend, that these rocky beach pictures could use a bit of a human element to add interest and perhaps emotion. I called up Corey and Holly (the one's I am making these prints for) and had them model. I was going for shots that were not so much about Corey and Holly as just about "people." I wanted the people in the pictures to be more about shapes and relationship than about two specific people. In otherwords, these are not portraits, but, I hope, something closer to art.




These next two don't seem to me to have much of a rocky beach feel, but I thought I would throw them on anyway. Enjoy!



Rock and uh... more rock

The last couple weekends I have gone out to get some shots that have a "Northwest-rocky-not-sandy-beach look" for my friends Corey and Holly. They want a couple prints to blow up real big and put on canvas gallery wraps for their living room. Last weekend I went out by myself and captured these shots among others.

The Twedts

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I would share some portraits I took of the Twedt family this last winter. We took their photos at Whatcom Falls Park here in Bellingham on one of the few days that weren't completely rainy. Right at the end of the shoot I shut my finger in a folding ladder and the mark is only now leaving my fingernail. Seriously, the things I do for the love of photography.
