This is a re-shoot of a photo I took a few years ago (in 2005?). I actually prefer the 2005 version of this photo, by far. However, I can’t blow that photo up as large as I want to be able to, because it was taken with a 6 MP camera with one photo cropped. …
The light the hour before the sun sets is so beautiful. It’s golden in color and adds a lot of contrast to bring out the detail in the uptown Butte buildings. This photo was taken from the hill on Main Street, shooting with my telephoto lens to get the compression between buildings. EDUCATIONAL NOTE: A …
This is the Original Mine the hour before sun rise, also known as magic hour because of the excellent light quality. It’s cropped a bit strange. But I think it looks better than with the old buses in the photo.
I live on the roof of a building. That’s why some of these past photos have been from an angle above where you’d normally be. It’s a cozy little penthouse, and the roof space is about three times the size of the actually living space, which is a small studio with tiny loft as a …
I had the opportunity to photograph the ButteTiernanIrish Dancers School Feis today. I photographed formal individual shots in front of a background as well as action shots. It was a joy learning about the different dance steps and levels of difficulty in the steps. The dancer below is Kara Holm. Notice her curls bouncy while …
I photographed the Daugherty family today. We started outside at the park, worked our way to the train tracks near the Butte Depot (as seen), and ended with a studio session.
Today I scoped out locations for photos for an assignment with Montana Tech. I’m photographing their campus, faculty, and staff for marketing materials (MNews magazine, brochures, etc.). I walked around today and took some quick shots to get an idea for some areas that might look nice with people in them, etc. Here are a …
The Jewish Synagogue is such a beautiful building architecturally. I’ve never been inside of it, but I’ve heard it’s equally as impressive. This photo was shut just after the sun rose, creating great contrast. Lately I’m drawn to black-and-white in photographs. It makes images with drab colors look a million times better.
This Windmill is basically in my yard. Yard being rooftop, at least. You can see the Mountain Con Mine on the horizon, and the MOFAB to the lower left.
Alright, so this is more of a personal blog entry. I recently became engaged to Robert, and this is my beautiful Sapphire ring! Ok, so it’s not so recent, it’s been since July. But still. Educational Note: The photo is backlit with window light. The background looks a bit blue, because it is–it’s the sky!
