Rachelle is my little sister.  She’s got a great family and they’re fun to be around.  It’s not often that family photos are taken in a hospital setting, but I think that these worked out great and we had a lot of fun doing it.

Christmas at Mt Baldy is one of our family highlights. My son, William, and I snowshoed to the top of the ski hill, which had been shut down during an ownership change. I love the views up there. It`s a tough hike, but it was worth it.

Winter weddings aren’t always easy, or predictable. Adam and Sara were blessed to have good weather for their wedding. It was mostly a concern for driving, since the photos were all planned to be taken indoors. The formals and reception were taken at the Delta South Hotel. There is a grand staircase that served as […]

Christmas parties are always fun. I spent the evening with Sleep Country Canada. And I stayed awake the whole time! We began the evening with portraits, then progressed to an awards ceremony after dinner, and finished off with music, dancing, and merry-making.

Rexburg, Idaho is a neat town.  It’s a bit out of the way for someone just travelling through since it lies a fair bit East of the I-15 heading South to Idaho Falls.  If you’re headed to Yellowstone, you may want to drop in and take in some of its charm. Travelling to Rexburg takes […]

I had a great day for shooting Hoar frost.  A friend and I took advantage of a sunny noon hour to take some photos in the parking lot.  The bright sun caused the South facing frost on the sides of the trees and bushes to melt, while the still frigid air maintained the North facing […]

Christmas is a great time for photos. Our family spent Christmas in a cabin on Mt. Baldy, near Oliver, B.C.. It gave me a lot of opportunity to get out into the snow and take a few photos. I particularly wanted to play with HDR, and I was delighted to find a few subjects that […]
