I had the pleasure of photographing the Delano High School JV Girl’s Basketball team. This was a great group of girls with a great coach. I really enjoyed capturing these girls in action on their homecoming day. Congratulations girls on a great win!  To view full blog post please visit my website.

These are some pictures I took off Hwy 178, at canyon and the Kern River.  It is nice to be outdoors and see the beautiful colors the sun paints on the sky during sunset. The clouds added that special touch.  All of these images would make a great backdrop to a portrait session. Book your session today!

I've been on Google+ for a couple months now and apart from having great features and not yet populated with junk, one of the things I like the best about being on Google+ is that there are a large number of photographers who share their work.  Among the photographers I follow, a couple have had contests for really nice giveaways.  If you enjoy seeing great photographs and aren't yet on Google+ I

My friend Mari and I took a quick drive toward Buena Vista Lake and wondered around to see what we could find to shoot. We found some interesting things to shoot among dry dirt and weeds. Here are my favorite images.

Last August I was wondering the streets of San Francisco searching for subjects to shoot.  A man I met near the Bart station lead me to this graffiti wall art. He had said his friends painted this and he was very proud of them.  This was at night, I was shooting with my 50mm lens, and there was no way I was going to get the entire graffiti art in the frame. I took three separate photos used

Taken with my Tamron 18-200 at f/13 1/20 ISO 800 One of my dreams is to travel and get pictures from places all around the world.  Who knows I may want to visit and get pictures of all the MLB stadiums around the US.  Until that dream is realized I will continue to photograph the places I visit near by. Dodgers Stadium is one of my favorite place to go. There's nothing like enjoying a Dodger

I began taking photography more seriously when I became the on-site photographer for the company I work for.  One of the fun parts of being the on-site photographer is that I occasionally get to go on location for photo shoots.  I was asked to take some photos for our company magazine, which led me to a pipe company on Rosedale.  Who would have known that oil pipes have stories? Some of the oil

I had the opportunity to display one of my photographs at The Foundry for the exhibit Word Play featuring The Shutter Clique.  The object was to pick one positive word and one negative word and portray them in a photograph.  This is the photograph with my two words War and Accept.

I am not a fan of the wind, so I don't make my way up north that often. This week I had the pleasure of going to San Francisco to attend a conference. On my free time I walked around a lot and took pictures of the city.  It was nice to breath clean air and get out of the heat for a few days. I may have to make my way up north more often. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the trip. To

I had the pleasure of shooting Lori and Nathan's wedding.  It is rewarding to be able to capture the special moments for the bride groom and their family. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the day.

This is my favorite day of the season. The fans get to be on the field and take pictures of their favorite Dodgers. It has always been a fun experience for my son to meet some of the players and take pictures with them. This year was a little different than past years. We didn't get to take as many pictures with the players. Either way it was fun to see them and get pictures of them.  Here are my

This was just a quick shoot I did for a work project. Julie is my very photogenic coworker who was a pleasure to take pictures of.  Thanks for being such a good sport Julie! Here are my favorites.

The weather was finally in the 80's, and it was a beautiful day to be outdoors.  I took my little boy on a drive and a walk through the Kern River Valley.  It was very nice and relaxing to get away from the city and enjoy God's beautiful creations. Sometimes we don't realize how beautiful our surroundings can be. Here are my favorite pictures from today.
