drinking + friends + photography = ?

happy st. patrick’s day everyone!

in honor of one of the biggest drinking days of the year, i decided to share some studio shot i did a few months back.

shooting on green, i did a few sessions with jay and elle.

jay’s turned into a mock-pseudo-sierra nevada ad (only because we were drinking my favorite beer, and i decided to photograph jay).

and elle’s just turned out weird.  i was playing around with lighting and color.

so i’m not really sure what to make of these…

but i’m behind on my goal for producing new images, so… here you go!

raking in ideas

ideas aren’t always easy to come by.

i can sympathize with this truth:  i resolved in january to concept and execute 2 new shots per month to beef up my book.

just an artist trying to exercise my creative muscles.

well, after my first shoot, i got busy and didn’t devote the time and energy needed to keep creating.

but the first key to keeping resolutions is to know how to pick yourself up and persevere after you drop the ball.

so here i am.

elle and i have spent the last few days conceptualizing.  and yesterday, we executed.

more to come soon!

my new buddy finn

okay, so i don’t normally photograph a lot of babies.

i mean, it happens from time to time, but that’s usually because it’s a friend’s or family member’s.

it’s just not typically what i do.

but my sister just had her third while we were working in wyoming and colorado last week…

so when we got home, we had a new friend to meet!

finn.  and this little guy already has more hair than me… not cool buddy.

we had a blast getting some fun shots with our newest nephew.

i just had to share the joy!  we’re so happy to have you in this world little finn…

barefoot and pregnant

for the new year, like a lot of artists i’m sure, i decided to push myself to grow creatively.

my first order of business; start concepting and creating new images.  no client necessary.

just bring an idea to life…  for the sake of growth and self-expression.

novel idea, huh?  funny how simple things like that can get lost at times when you do for a living the very thing that you love…

my goal is to produce at least two new images per month.  and here’s the first.
