Launching a new project

Posted on December 17, 2017

I’ve been photographing for just over 30 years.  In that time I have explored many wonderful places and created many memories.  This blog is the beginning of a book project where I want to share with you each chapter as an journal issue that is downloadable as a free EBook or available in print.

The journal will have the essays and images laid out in a contextual relationship with one other and this website will tell you more about each photograph that is published in the journal.

This photo was made in October of 2017 while walking across the parking at at Spokane Falls Community College where I teach photography and digital media production. The flight was heading out to the airport and was passing in and out of clouds.  I thought it was the perfect metaphor for the journey this life is and the uncertainty that always lies ahead.

  • I made this image while camping up at Honeymoon Lake in Jasper National Park in 2008. It was early morning around 6am and the camp was quiet except for a group of german speaking boys who were already heading out to go for a bath in the lake. Something about seeing this first boy walk slowly
