I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here in Arizona this summer and I feel super fortunate for the opportunity to shoot Christi & Andres and their darling daugher, Krysta. I enjoy seeing couples who are so in love that it shows in every photo you see. Krysta was a kick when, at the end of the session, she sat down and began nibbling on the grass as we shot some of just mom & dad.

{isolated incident | dance}

“The Things They Say” is a poignant portrayal of a young woman searching for equilibrium as she confronts the demands of single parenthood. Although she never steps out on stage, her struggles are shaped through the emotional imagery of dance and the ofttime judgmental remaks of her peers. The performance weaves dance, poetry, acting, and live music into a rick mosaic that takes us on a poingant and sometimes humourous journey of self-discovery.

I have the honor of photographing this amazing performance tomorrow night. I attended the first rehearsal a few weeks ago and left feeling confused. “I don’t get it,” I said. Erin Glockner, one of the dancers, had to explain it to me. I still didn’t get it. I guess I’m a bit ignorant when it comes to modern dance. However, last night at the dress rehearsal, it all clicked. Everything made sense and I was filled with wonder and excitement for what is guaranteed a great show.

{arboriculture with altitude | event}

July 10, 2009 By Leave a Comment

It’s been a while since I have shot a more corporate type of event, but I was certainly flattered when Art Daley, “The Tree Doctor,” of Arbor Pro Tree Care, asked me to photograph this conference. You see, Art was the chairman of this inaugural high altitude conference presented by the Western Chapter of the International Society of Arboriculture (say that six times fast) and wanted to create a truly unique event.
I know, I know, you’re wondering, “what the heck is an arborist?” I happened to learn that the best way to describe an arborist is that they are simply “a forester who manages trees in an urban setting.” Now I know how to answer that question, since I do get it a lot.
It was a fantastic day filled with firsts: the first conference of this kind held in Northern Arizona, the first “non-boring” tree conference, the first time the mayor gave a key to the city to somone who wasn’t a firefighter or “somone who saves babies,” and the first time a photographer was present to document the occasion. I even took my photography to new levels when I willingly climbed in a bucket truck and went up 70 feet to take this group shot, even though I am ridiculously afraid of heights. Go figure.
This day was personally very special to me because I have spent my whole life around trees — from counting them in stand exams to peeling them for log cabins, and even helping take a few of them down now and again, I have grown up in a house where money really did grow on trees.
Despite the fact that I had the edge going in — I have known Quercus Gambelii, Pseudotsuga Menzezii, Juniperus Depiana, and Pinus Ponderosa since I was thirteen; I actually did know what an Arborist was, and I can tie a mean knot in a climb rope — I learned a lot that day about trees, insects, and even business.
It was a great day had by all and I look forward to attending in 2010. Click the photo above to view the slideshow.

{jess + scott | expecting}

July 1, 2009 By Leave a Comment

If you know Jess & Scott, you’d know that they are two of the most hilarious people you’ll ever meet. So their little bundle of joy is in for a ride with these two as parents. Since they decided to keep the sex of the baby a surprise, we’ll have to wait until August before we can actually say “him” or “her” (although I hear boys are prominent in the McTaggart family line!).

These two were so goofy as we wandered around a school playground, shooting photos and cracking jokes about how this baby might think its parents are nuts. Well kid, they are, but we love them despite.

I am looking forward to meeting this new little one in a few short months.
