Some pictures from our trip to the Yucatan. I’m in love with Tulum and look forward to returning in the future. I’m thankful for a trip like this, it never ceases to amaze me how vast and beautiful the world is. Go see it!

when the day is done
Grass Valley, CA
I was in Grass Valley a bit ago for work and Jen and I got to stay at the beautiful home of our friend Amanda Evans.
Our time there was short and yet so refreshing, it was nice to be out of the city for a little bit. While I was looking over these photos the lines of this Wendell Berry poem kept coming to mind :
[ When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake...

While we all sup sorrow with the poor.
There’s a song that will linger forever in our ears.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the show last weekend!
It was so great to talk with you all and relive some of the stories behind the portraits. Here’s a shot of Levi captured on the 8x10 camera last spring.I love the way light leaks read in black and white.

I’m really in disbelief that 2010 is over. What a full year! Filled with such great change, travel and growth as an artist. Sometimes years will pass - and things seems to stay relatively the same. This was not the case for this past year. I felt more heavily the weight of change, loss and gain in this year than ever before in my life. With those changes came great pain and...

Reykjavik, Iceland. My favorite city in the world…so far.
low tide on the island & the earth is changing
going through archives today & i found this shot.
I didn’t get to put it in my show but it was always one of my favorites.
Out of all my portraits from that show this said what I needed it to the most.
It’s kodak porta 400nc shot on the good ole 8x10 camera.
live water heals memories. i look up the creek and here it comes, the future,...

This was designer Jamie Haller’s wedding that I shot at El Captian Campground a few weeks ago. I try not to post too many weddings on here but I really just loved shooting this one! Jamie and Craig were married outside in the Santa Barbara hills over looking the ocean. The whole wedding was a dream…beautiful scenery, fashionable guests, lovely bride...
etc, Iceland.

these are some photos I took of Paige at the Julia Barbee shoot last week. I haven’t used studio lights in so long, I forgot how nice they can be! More images featuring the rest of the line coming soon. Happy Weekend.
Golden Days is the music project of one of my best friends Taryn Faye. I am in love with their sound….it’s nostalgic, full and exciting. Taryn and I took these promo shots downtown last week - we are going to do a full band shoot soon with the rest of the guys in the band but for now go check out their myspace and listen to their newest song ‘Future,’...
Megan & Seth : Engaged
a sample of the first shoot in a 3 part narrative engagement session that I did with my good friends Megan & Seth. Megan is a former roommate and Seth, a fellow photographer.
Both are lovely, creative people - i’m excited to see them get married next summer.
I really loved doing this shoot and i hope you enjoy it!
