You never know what you'll find...

The Internet is such a fascinating thing. From time to time I will do a Google search on my name to see what pops up. It had been ages since I last tried this, but for fun I logged on last night and did a quick search. In addition to learning that I share my name with a lady in Australia, I was VERY pleasantly surprised to learn that the San Francisco Chronicle had published one of my images along side a featured travel article by columnist Rick Steves. My discovery was in the pre-dawn hours of the night and I am still grinning from ear to ear.

Here's a link to archive. The article can be accessed by using the "Back to Article" link above my photo.

Disappearing Paul

I've known Paul for about 10 years now. However you can't imagine my surprise when he recently contacted me out of the blue to do some portraits for him. It wasn't his request for photos that surprised me, but rather that Paul had gone through this amazing transformation since I last saw him five years ago. His story is truly inspirational and a tribute to what a little hard work and a whole lot of dedication can do! Check out his blog, disappearingpaul.wordpress.com, it is a great story that continues to unfold...

Kayley

One of the clients I had the chance to work with this fall was Kayley. This beautiful high school senior was a lot of fun to shoot. She had a great personality and we had a lot of laughs during her session.

Bridge Series

Well, the bad news is that I have been neglecting my blog for far too long. The good news is that I have been doing a lot of shooting lately which keeps me away from the desk. A recent personal project has been a formal study of bridges. I set out to photograph bridges in a less traditional way. My aim was to focus on the art contained within bridge design. My thesis was that even the most plain or utilitarian bridges have something beautiful to offer. I hope you enjoy these selected images from my bridge series.
