National Trails Day: Betasso Preserve, Boulder Colorado
June 5th was National Trails Day, and I lent some photographing skills to help promote the creation and maintenance of our local trail network. Boulder Mountain Bike Alliance hosted a big trail building day at Betasso Preserve. In case you didn’t know, Betasso is getting a brand new loop, called the Benjamin Trail, that will...
Creative Shooting Challenge
There is a new thread on the Digital Wedding Forum, called the Creative Shooting Challenge. The idea is to get up from in front of the computer and to go outside and take some creative photos at some point during a normal workday. The challenge is to be creative, and take interesting shots in your...
Pearl Street Mall
And today is a gorgeous sunny day in Boulder. A great day to be outside . . . unfortunately I’ve got a SUPER busy week. I did step out for lunch and take a quick shot outside the office.
Meniskus at the Brick House
I took a quick break from editing madness on a Saturday night to go check out Meniskus at the Lazy Dog AKA Brick House. I was playing with my new Nikon 35mm f/1.8G in super low light scenario. It was DARK in there! So rather than try to hide my low-ISO noise, I decided to...
Pearl Street Musician
I was walking down the Pearl Street Mall the other day, and I had my super wide angle lens on the camera. I randomly decided to shoot a little street photography, and held down the shutter button while walking past this musician playing the guitar. I held the camera at my waist and shot it...
Meniskus at the Boulder Draft House
Last Friday my favorite band Meniskus rocked out a free show at the Boulder Draft House. For more images from the night check out the Facebook Gallery.
Lighting a Campfire With a Weed Burner
If you have your wedding at the Pastures of Plenty in North Boulder County, you just might have a bonfire. And if you do, John Howlett from Big Bang Catering will be there to get it started for you. His preferred tool is a propane weed burner. By the look on his face, I think...
Atmosphere Fashion Show
Atmosphere in Boulder hosted a fashion show a little while back. I was there. I took some photos. It was awesome. You can see more pictures on the Facebook Gallery Page.
Boulder Canyon View From Anemone Trail
I’ve been trying to be better about doing something other than work lately. But when I do, I still bring my camera. Does this mean that I’m not really getting away from work? I actually went on a hike the other day. Probably the first one this year! It was a quick little one, leaving...
Boulder Red Rocks Trail
Right at the edge of town, Boulder has it’s own mini Red Rocks. A short hike from Settler’s Park, the Red Rocks Trail is a short hike around this rock outcropping that juts up skyward.
Aerial Shot of the Flatirons
Here is one last shot from my plane ride above Boulder. It’s a simple shot of the Flatirons, but hey, everyone loves the Flatirons. Plus you can see the University of Colorado Boulder campus with all of the red roof buildings.
Scenic Rutan VariEze Airplane Photos Over Boulder
Last week I did a fun shoot that is a little out of the ordinary for me. I took my friend Jeff up on an offer to shoot an unusual plane from the air. Jeff’s friend Michael Malocsay hand built himself a Rutan VariEze experimental aircraft and comes into Boulder every so often to fly...
Balloon Over Boulder
Last Friday I went for another plane ride with Barnow. This was an intentional joyride this time. We had special plans to take aerial photos of a special plane. More on that in an upcoming post! On our ascent we passed by a hot air balloon floating over the Boulder Reservoir. I hadn’t really given...
Bombay Bistro Cooking Class
This is Paul. Paul Rocks! He is the owner of the Bombay Bistro in downtown Boulder. I met Paul last year on one random night on the Cruiser Ride. After that I’ve been a big fan of the modern Indian cuisine. They offer many vegan and gluten-free options which are a big hit in Boulder...
Boulder Pet Photography?
Sometimes I get asked if I ever shoot pet portrait photography. Officially, the answer is no, I’ve never been hired for a paid dog or cat portrait gig. But that doesn’t mean that I couldn’t! I’m just not really sure that a viable, paying market exists for high quality scenic shots. One would think that...
Awesome Wood Textures
While taking a food break on my last Boulder mountain bike ride, I noticed the unique wood texture on the trees. The bark is peeling off and looks like puzzle pieces.
Me. Launching.
OK, I’m long overdue updating this site. I’ve got some new employees that have been keeping me busy doing ‘real’ work. But I’m here in Steamboat taking more mountain biking photos, so I really have to get these old pics off the camera. 2 Sunday’s ago, Ryan and I rode the Ceran St. Vrain trail...
