About Me

I'm a Minneapolis based photographer focused on weddings, portraits, and urban cityscapes. I pride myself on being a bit of an eclectic who takes an interest in all manner of people and places and travel a fair bit, so I try to include other elements of my work into my blog. My work tends to use a modern style with a mind toward drawing out the edges in life. I draw inspiration in my portraiture from Greg Gorman, Herb Ritts, Platon, and a handful of other masters of the art.

Whether your a new fan or an old friend, please be sure to leave a comment or drop me a line, I appreciate the feedback or just knowing who I'm reaching on the web. Thanks for checking out my work!

Thanks!,

Spinning on the Colombian Merry Go Round

Apr 11, 2009 Posted in Portraits

I’ve wanted to do a shot on a “Merry Go Round” for years… but all the lawyers got rid of them in the US a long time ago. Not so in Colombia…

Bibi - For a minute there, I thought you meant the carousel type of merry-go-round. I hate it when people are so overly-concerned about accidents. What happened to common sense and taking some responsibiity? I was upset not to be able to find the original Mr. Potatoheads when my kids were little….no more sticking plastic parts in real potatoes! Heck, that was what was FUN!

I am rambling…but your photos are great; what fun, what action!
