Just a Sunday Evening.

I got the chance to photograph Jemma. She is a very ambitious young lady. She has already started beauty school and will finish around the same time as her High school graduation. I had a great time with her.

Up, Up, and Away!

Last night I had the honor of shooting Natalia & Zach's engagement photos. It was a blast one of Zach's friends flew in a Classic Piper Cub into a private air stip. Not only did I get to take some fun pictures but I also got to see one of my favorite air craft up close.

Death Valley

I recently got to take a trip to Death Valley. When I left I knew there would be weather but nothing like I experienced. Upon entering the park we were greeted by a low lying fog that hid our initial view of the park from the West entrance. As we descended into the first valley I realized this was not fog, but we were driving in the clouds. Upon talking with a ranger we got to see a semi rare thing Rain in Death Valley a lot of it. Enough that there were washouts on the road and rock slides on the passes.

One rock slide crossed the road blowing out a jeeps tires in front of us. Our small Jetta made it through with out incident even though it bottomed out. I took a few snapshots while I was there and wanted to share them. Oh, and we missed the wild flowers by a week or two. The rangers were saying that this will be one of the best years in the last 60 years. Due to all the late rain fall.

Durby Girls

My older sister who tended to be the more athletic of three kids. Recently joined a start up Roller derby team in Sonora The High Country Hell Cats. I was there along with several others for their "Maiden Voyage" their first bout. It was high energy smash and bash on wheels. If you have never seen a roller derby bout I highly recommend it.

Out and About

It has been a while since I last posted something on this blog. My wife and I are getting a new place ready to live and got a new puppy. I was out working on a article for a magazine the other day. I decided to make a stop on my way home. At a local wildlife refuge. I snapped a few quick shots, and I wanted to share.

Let it Snow

I took advantage of the low snow level and ran out to a friends ranch today we were at about 500ft elevation and there was about 3" of snow on the ground. This is not a very common occurrence around here. So here are a few pictures I think the cows were hungry they keep running to the truck.

Double Time

On Saturday I took on two weddings. If not for the help of my buddy Thomas, there is no way this would have been possible. I started off on one side of Downtown and ended up on the other. It was a photographic marathon. I had a great time with both parties. Congratulations to the brides and grooms of the weekend.
