Dang, I have 6 readers! Also, trash the dress (sort of)
Wowsa,
I'm very surprised and quite tickled (pink) that I actually had responses to my last post! Thanks to all of you for your encouraging words. Since I now know that there are readers of this fine blog, I have a proposition and a question for you:
1) If you have …
Sunday Quickie: blast from the past
I spent this weekend with family, and it was fantastic! Unfortunately for you, that means I have no new photographs to tantalize your optical rod and cone recepticals with. (If you have no idea what I just said, you need to get with the 21st century wiki how eyeballs …
FIRE!
today's photo of the day:
My little sister called me at work last night and told me Okaboji Grill was on fire! I headed there as soon as I clocked out (9:30) and it was still burning pretty good. Apparently the fire was a controlled burning that started around 6 p.m. …

Coolest Senior Photos of ALL TIME?
*note* - Blogger really stinks and cuts off photos bigger than a certain size, so you'll have to click on images you want to see big!
I'd like to start this blog entry with a confession:
I suck at blogging. There's no excuse for it. I take a lot of photos that deserve to …

Sunset adventure
After recently booking my first solo exhibitions (see following post), I've realized I need to work on my fine art portfolio. I love working with people above all else (portraiture!!), but that isn't possible much of the time. Besides, portraiture is really only …

Married Life
I've been married for 1 month and 2 days, and so far it's been awesome. After a brief spell of unemployment and homelessness, we now have jobs and a home!
To commemorate these monumental accomplishments, we decided to take a photo (Which means I begged Alex to let me use …
First Exhibition in Iowa
I just got booked for my first exhibition in Iowa, and the inaugural exhibition of Cafe' Milo in Ames!
I'll have close to a dozen pieces exhibited for your viewing and purchasing pleasure at Cafe' Milo starting September 2nd. I'll be working very hard over the next week …

Saturday Hotlink
If you like photography, hard rock, God, or great design, today's hotlink is for you!
A Life Echoed (they were featured last month for some photos I took of them) recently released their debut album, The Boy Who Cried Truth. It's a pretty stellar record, any anybody …
Hey peeps, I have a wife now!
And I've had her since July 19! Her name is Alex and she's really cool! Pardon my lack of posting on the topic until now. Marriage, honeymoon, moving, moving again, getting jobs, being married, sheesh - it's like a full time job! And it's the best full time job I've …

BATMAN!
The day before my wedding (which has surpassed, and my next post will be about that!), my wife and her family decided we should go to the premier of Batman Begins dressed up like our favorite characters. She decided to go as poison ivy, and she caught a lot of flack for …

Hey Photogs, Read This!
This morning an old co-worker linked me to a terrifying article about the rapidly changing profession of photojournalism:

The article makes some very valid points and repeatedly states the increasing difficultly of succeeding …
Review of my Wedding Services
I'll preface this by saying that weddings are a new thing to me. I went into this summer having never shot one, but now I have 2 under my belt and I think it's safe to say that both experiences were mutually beneficial (great experiences for me, great photos for the …

12 days of (better than) christmas
12 days and counting! (till my wedding, silly)
Every thing's coming together. Mad props to Alex's mom for all of her craftsmanship. She's hand made ties, flower arrangements, accessories, all absolutely gorgeous. I'm getting really excited :)
I've been editing, editing, …

A few more Megan and Ron...
These pictures are freaking me out because they're so .... good! A combination of incredible weather, a super duper couple, and my skill with a camera produced results far greater than any of the parts individually. I need to get out of Iowa.
just after the ceremony:
a …

Clap your hands if you dislike airports!
*clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
I'm sitting in the Portland airport, and miraculously there's free internet at my gate (none of that $15 fee that seemingly every other airport has). I've got a long wait because my flight was canceled, but I fortunately got re-routed …

29 days...
Till I get to marry the girl of my dreams! But in the meantime I've been busy clicking away and cleaning myself up between then and now. Expect several updates soon on the web site. It's in an awkward state of transition as new galleries develop and old ones pass away. …

Gentlemen, Ladies, Others...
The time has finally come for me to sell a bunch of unused photo equipment. It's all in fantastic (or even unopened) condition! The reason for selling this …

I'm Inspired!!!
Yesterday a friend sent me a link to a photo set on flickr that blew my mind. It's a series on childhood fears:

Be forewarned, a few of the images are a little graphically scary (bugs and monsters and …
