Hello.

Welcome to my photo blog. Below you will find links to my micro blog (Twitter), my social networking blog (Facebook), our family blog and my portfolio website. Yeah, this interweb stuff is getting nuts!

I am a guy who likes, no, loves, to capture life in photos. Our lives, little kids lives, older kids lives, our lives while we're in really nice places, and of course the wedding parts of lives. You will find a little web log of such photos and other happenings right here.

I am definitely one of those people who needs you to tell me you love me over and over again so please do that often in the comments section.

Here are a bunch of links I think you might like or find useful:

    Christina & Matt // 06.06.09 / Pre-Release

    Here's a quick preview of a beautiful day on Saturday. This wedding was planned perfectly and went very very well. Christina and Matt were in Mexico before I woke up on Sunday. Man I'm jealous! Do I say that every time? Yes I do! And yes I am!



    and one from her bridal fashion shoot. She chose one of my favorites!! We matted it with a wide, 8-ply mat (as always) and a sleek black Roma Moulding. It was a work of art!!! (If I may say so ;)

    Lauren & Trevor // Engagement / Pre-Release

    The cool thing about clouds is the potential you have after they clear. Today was a nice shade of overcast which provided for some really even light for Lauren & Trevor (and Taylor)'s shoot. Then as I hoped and prayed, we got a little visit from some gorgeous sun. Here is a preview of one engagement photo and one relaxed headshot for Lauren.





    More details to come on this shoot!

    Lindsay & Mike // Engagement / Pre-Release

    And for the first of two hat-tricks I will do this week, here is one image I pulled out of Lindsay & Mikes shoot tonight. I wont even show you that field. Too Good! Ok I will soon but here is one I liked from Bricktown.

    Ashlee & Dan // Engagement / Pre-Release

    Next up on this super busy week were Ashlee and Dan. This time we got to hit up the charming old west town of Guthrie and then down to RT. 66 for a spot I scouted out over a year ago and have been waiting to shoot at. I'd say the clouds, light and subjects synergized perfectly!

    Here's just one quick image. Many more to come.

    Ashley & Andrew // Engagement / Pre-Release

    I met Ashley and Andrew up at Boone Pickens Stadium on Saturday and we had a UH-MAZING shoot. Here is one preview image of one of the best fields I have found thanks to my friend Sarah Rhoads who pointed me south from campus to find some treasures!

    This shot was actually after the shoot was "over" and we were heading back to the car. I tend to do that sometimes.

    My daughter's favorite flower

    Bet you didn't know a weed could be a beautiful flower. My daughter thinks so because she can pick it and blow all the fuzzies away. My buddy Aaron Snow captured an amazing landscape yesterday and inspired me to go shoot for myself today with the beautiful clouds again. This was the last shot I took and it is almost straight out of the camera. Just a slight bit of curves brightness adjustments. Man I love my Nikon D3's colors.

    Oh and this isn't just a regular ole dandelion. It was with out a doubt the biggest one I have ever seen. 4" diameter.

    Click image to BIGGIE size it.

    Thanks for the inspiration Aaron!
