Capturing life


I love taking and sharing photos because I'm passionate about capturing images that remind people of the special moments in their lives, whether it's candid photos, catching people engaged in life, and what they love doing, or landscapes, creating images that evoke memories of a special place. I'm based in the Puget Sound area, but love to travel and explore. Check out my gallery, and if you'd like to use any, or collaborate, let me know.

Take better pictures yourself


I created this Microsoft Sway with simple, clear guidance on how to get the most out of your camera. It started as a short workshop for my wife and sister on how to use their new cameras, and I've continued adding it to over the years. Click the image on the left to launch the Sway.

Travel Guidance


Christi and I love traveling, and have taken a little time to document recommendations about a few of our favorite places. Check out my Travel Page in the navigation above, or by clicking the photo to find them.
