Composite and Painting
I am working on some new skills. Compositing, painting with photoshop brushes, and using Ipad apps for more creative options.

It was about six years ago I began this blog with the very first pictures I took as I was learning manual control on my Nikon dslr. I blogged for awhile and then got busy with the kids' school.

Lady of the Lake
Hayley and I planned for two months for this photo shoot. Finding a location proved to be much harder than I thought. Who would have thought it would be hard to find a body of water with clear enough water in Oregon that wasn't also freezing cold or too far for us to meet? I … Continue reading Lady of the Lake
