While on our vacation in Alaska, I snapped this shot of Blake from up close.

Vegas park under snow

We don’t get much snow in Vegas, so when we do, it’s a big deal. This shot was taken at a park around the corner from my house. You can see the weight of the snow caused one of the tree limbs to break.

Go, Charger, Go!

This shot was basically an accident. I was shooting something completely different. I turned around at the right height and saw this shot along the side of my car. I snapped one frame and loved it.

New fence, old fence

The new taking over for the old. This was taken on a lunch break from work at noon. The light was harsh but yet I still like the resulting shot.

Vegas Valley at Sunset

While on a photo shoot at the mesa, I snapped this shot of the sunset going on behind our shoot.

Grainy portrait

This was one of the first shots I set up. I added the noise to the photo in post production, but really liked the effect it gave the shot.

Cards and Cash

While at a bowling alley we played Poker Bowling. Draw a card for every spare or strike. Add $2 to the pot for every open frame. At the end, the best poker hand wins the pot.

What the ball sees

This photo was taken with a wide-angle lens while the camera was sitting on the lane. I like the reflexion off the lane itself.

Blake at the mesa

This shot was taken while trying to duplicate the look of a photo I saw online recently. I used 2 flashes through umbrellas at 45 degree angles set to 1/2 power.

Twin Spires

Likely my favorite shot that I took the entire week in Alaska. A few short minutes after taking this shot, the spire on the left went crashing in to Hubbard Glacier bay.
