Megan Surfing a Boat Wake - I'm laying on the swim step for fish

Action

Shooting for Essentia water, Megan would be perfect, she’s athletic, not to mention gorgeous. Plus her family’s winery, Fielding Hills, is a client of mine and I knew they had a kick-ass boat to play with. We plowed through the water to get a nice rooster tail, I laid down on the swim step, below waterline, to catch the fish eye view. 

Portraits

The women of Estancia la Oriental in Argentina, just in from an afternoon ride on their horses. I got this environmental portrait in the grand light-filtered billiard room.

Pouring awesome wine in the gardens of Syncline Winery in the Go

Wine

Syncline Winery was the first winery I photographed when I jumped into wine photography, the hand you see in my portfolio is that of vintner James Mantone. Here the staff enjoys the fruits of their labor in lush gardens of the Columbia Gorge winery.

Industry

I got assigned to photograph several industrial applications for Twin Disc in South America. Client made some connections, asked for cool shots and I took over from there. I had free rein to roam and photograph the people and process. Shot this grinder at a shipbuilding facility right on the Ucayali River in Pucallpa, Peru.

Architecture

I approach Architectural photography with a natural sense of design, composition and appreciation for light, especially an architects purposeful lighting design.


Aerial

Photographing a condo for a friend of mine I see the ferry coming in, “Just a sec, I gotta go get a shot.” And so I fly all the way out and come in behind the ferry as it's docking. I’m grateful for my ability to logistically predict how elements will come together to make a great shot.

Koriak woman, Manilly, Russian Far East Shot on Fuji Velvia, Can

Travel

In this Koriak woman's pungent house in Siberia I asked her, through two translators,  “Could you look out the window for a second?”  As she stood right up, I put my back against the wall focusing on her eye, Canon F1 at a 15th of a second @ f/1.2 with an 85 mmL lens on Fuji Velvia ISO 50 film.She sat back down in a blink of that eye.

Panoramic

I set up my motorized tripod head in the Alfama bairro of Lisbon before dawn. This is 80 individual shots stitched together for an ultra-high rez photograph suitable for a wall mural–or a very difficult puzzle.
