About Me

My photo
An 8th grade English teacher for the past 16 years, my interest in photography began in my early teens. An avid Fuji Velvia shooter for years, I finally purchased my first digital camera, a Canon 20D, in January of 2005. I started my photography business on the side in 2004, and it has grown into a second career. I love how my teaching profession and photography business work so seamlessly together. Today, I find myself shooting in excess of 100,000 images a year, including wedding imagery, senior and family portrait work, sports team and action shots, and my true passion, landscape and wildife. I'm actually doing what I always dreamed and I feel totally blessed.

Lots of Bull!

The  past several years, a number of bull elk have wintered along I-90 only 12 minutes from my home.  I have ventured out a number of times and shot photos of the bulls.  I've even had one published in the Wyoming Wildlife magazine.  With the snow we received on Christmas day, they have reappeared in their traditional hideout, so I went out and spent some time photographing them this afternoon.  Their were nine bulls in the bunch this time, and while I couldn't seem to get close for the longest time due to shifting wind conditions and the movement of the bulls, everything came together perfectly right at sunset.  I'm totally stoked about the silhouette images.  I've got a sneaking suspicion one of these images may well end up as my donation to the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation annual banquet in Sheridan.
