I’m a Lake Tahoe based wedding and portrait photographer, and fan of unposed, giddy-in-love, melt-my-lenses-editorial-style moments … oh, and t-shirts and jeans.

PHOTOGRAPHY
A thirst for constant improvement, staying inspired, meeting interesting people and filling life with stimulation is what keeps me taking pictures. When I saw this workshop was being offered, I jumped on it. I went there excited to learn from a group of photographers, designers, and bloggers whose work I have admired for some time […]

Last month I drove out to Durango, Colorado to shoot a beautiful wedding and snapped some shots along the way. The sun set right after passing through Moab and it was the perfect moment to stand in the middle of nowhere and take in just how small you are in the grand scale of nature. […]

It was brought to my attention (the polite way of saying someone called me out) that I haven’t followed up to the Olympics trip blog teaser back in February. So, here it is! It was an amazing trip overall, driving through the pacific northwest, arriving in the beautiful city of Vancouver and experiencing the overwhelming […]

Last May, I was in New York City visiting my sister. We came across this simple yet powerful memorial. Some tiles were new and some weathered, but all with the common thread of heartfelt messages.

This place was full of fisherman culture and is named ‘The Old Bali.” It’s very traditional and less overrun by tourists. On the outskirts of the volcano Agung Agung (last erupted in ’63), the eastern shore of Bali is where you can find the best snorkeling on the island…so we came to Amed! We took […]

We escaped the tourist town of Kuta for a few days and got lost in Ubud. Two days turned into four as we kept calling the front desk on our supposed checkout date to add one more night. Here is where we slept in, indulged in complete relaxation with 2 hour massages (complete with thunderstorms, […]

“Welcome to Uluwatu…. the land where you must pass through hundreds of aggressive monkey thieves in order to to see one of the most gorgeous coastlines in the world.” It makes total sense that you would have to pay a small price to see something like this. Our price = Sean’s hat. Sean, aka Steve […]

We spent the late afternoon at Padang Padang, a surf break that was on the list as a ‘must see’. While I walked around grabbing some shots of the hidden beach area and fisherman, Sean paddled around this rock for some of the roughest surfing in Bali… the coral was just waiting to have its […]

This is the first batch of pictures from Bali. A few from our hotel and then from a magical place called Tanah Lot. If this was my temple, I would be way more religious! We were there just in time to see the bulk of locals making their offerings… although I would believe it if […]
