Being a veteran of zombie crawls in Denver, I was interested in seeing how Phoenicians dressed for the Phoenix Zombie walk. I also needed a break from studying, so I tagged along with a friend from school who dressed up as a zombie and wanted to participate in the walk. With the walk starting after …
Phoenix Headshot
In a continuation of my last few headshots this one also has a white backdrop. Until recently, I did not have the opportunity to photograph inside, or to have photos with a white backdrop — I photographed outside, on location. At least in the near future photographing inside is a treat for me; however, photographing …
Grand Canyon Black & White Photos
With some time off school and needing a to get away for a few days I went to the Grand Canyon in northern Arizona. I set up camp (my tent) at Mather campground and spent two days hiking around the southern rim taking photos. While I wanted to descend down into the canyon for some …
Phoenix Headshots
This is one of my favorite photos I have taken, simply for the facial expression. The model, Erin Pitcher, just has that look of ‘what did I get myself into posing for a picture.’ It cracked me up! Perhaps equally funny this is a face that Erin says this is a regular part of her …
Phoenix Portrait Photography
Tonight I had the opportunity to shoot another portrait. It is one of the first times I have had an opportunity to do so while I have been down in Phoenix. Fortunately my friend, Michael Foushee, agreed to pose for me. One thing I really like about portraits is really bringing out a person’s personality …
Tempe Town Lake at Night – The Valley of the Sun After Dark
Instead of a portrait I have another landscape this evening. Since I moved to Phoenix I have been busy with moving and settling in that I haven’t had the time I would like to devote to portraits. Tonight, I took a stroll along Tempe Town Lake and Tempe Beach Park. The lake/park is pretty well …
Phoenix Photography
I am settling in to my new photography base Phoenix, Arizona. There are so many things to see and do for the first couple of days while I have been here I decided to just let the city marinate a bit, and leave my camera at home. Well today I ventured out into the city …
Street Chess Portrait
Chess is a long-time hobby of mine, so it is natural that I would want some type of self-portrait including chess. One of the great things about Denver is that there are some public concrete chess tables on the 16th Street Mall downtown that not only are perfect for games, but work for a pretty …
Phoenix Fitness Portrait
One of the last portraits that I will take before I make the move to Phoenix is a fitness portrait of my friend, Mike Starchok. Those of you that follow my blog will remember that the last time we photographed together we had a minimalist photoshoot at a local park. This time we went for …
Self-Portrait
It is time for another self-portrait. It isn’t that there is anything wrong with the other self-portrait, I just wanted something in color this time. So I decided to carve out some time over the weekend to take a new one before the move to Phoenix. Both pictures were taken in the same location, …
