Hello and welcome to my website!  I am a photographer in Minneapolis, Minnesota focusing primarily in weddings/engagements, portraits, and nature photography. To me photography is about capturing everyday moments from different perspectives.  It’s about bringing smiles to people’s faces...

Pics for Pets 

I was recently hired by a pack of puppies to photograph their participation in the 2009 Humane Society Walk for Animals.  The weather was beautiful and everyone had a great time.  I wanted to share with you some of the highlights from the day.

It was a nice sunny day, and all the kids had smiles on their faces… What could be better than being outside with nearly 8,000 other dogs!

Some got to carry a stick…  “This is my favorite thing”

Some worked on their training.  High-Five!

Some really enjoyed hiking through the woods…

And, some really just enjoyed the walk…  “Let’s go guys!”

Everyone had a great time during the walk.  However, the big lesson learned from the afternoon, which really applies to life in general, was that even if you think you are a big dog, there will always be a bigger dog…one who will not hesitate to drool…all over your head.

A special thanks to Melody for coordinating the event for all the pups.  We had a great time and it’s good to know it was for a great cause.

New Camera 

I am very excited that my new camera just arrived: Nikon D700 Full Frame body.   Here is a test shot from the first series of photos I took.  I am blown away at the color and sharpness of the pictures.  It’s been awhile since I’ve posted to this blog, I know.  Out of my 4 blogs, 2 Twitter accounts, seminar presentations, and book, I have definitely been the most behind on this blog.  That is about to change.

Mike+Erin 

Just recently, I had the wonderful opportunity to shoot a couple friends of ours, Erin and Mike with their puppy, Stella. These two were naturals...and little Stella LOVES getting her picture taken!
