flashback
I am going back through some of the photos I took while in Japan back in 2007. My wife gave me my Christmas present early that year – a Nikon D40 – and I couldn’t put it down.
It is fun to see how far I have come in terms of my knowledge of overall photographic [...]
The Jarvie Window
My friend Scott has done a very in depth review and post over on his blog about this new phenomenon (bum ba mun na num). The Jarvie Window – it is like a crazy, almost self revealing look into your soul.
some people are just so curious and wanting to explore.
and some people are all [...]

We had a blast on the trampoline today at the Photowalking Utah Studio Lighting event in Draper, Utah. Thank you to everyone who participated!

It is all an act. Sometimes.
The other day when we were shooting for Provo creative, my very talented shutterbug pal, Doug Barlow shot this while I was helping fine tune the settings for the beauty dish. I did the black and white conversion in Adobe Lightroom. It sure is nice to have talented friends. (It [...]
Get to it
So much to do! Websites, portfolios, networking – the more I sit down and start to set up a plan, the more ideas I get and then my ADD starts to kick in and now at 11:45 – my eyes just hurt.
I started out thinking about different ways to portray the type of photography that [...]
Provo Creative Meetup
Last night I went to the Provo Creative Meetup at the new home of Provo Creative. The theme for the night was one light shooting – with an emphasis on harsh lighting and black and white photos (but my emphasis is always on black and white photos so hey – )
Anyway – it was a [...]
out to the lake
I was restless this morning and decided to go out for a little photowalk and I wound up on the west side of Utah Lake. Ice and snow pretty much covered everything.
I loved how the reeds and grasses were poking up in different places through the ice.
It was pretty desolate out there, and add that [...]
YiiP Day 4
We had a beautiful sunset today in Utah Valley – a fitting end to a rather pleasant day of returning to work.

Happy New Year! I am starting a new photo project today – in conjunction with a new flickr group, Year in iPhone Pictures, I will be taking and posting a photo a day taken solely with my iPhone and processed only with iPhone apps (like my favorites BestCam and CameraBag).
This first installment for the new [...]
My Honey
Jen needed some new photos as she gets ready to dive into her new career in Real Estate – so we went into my office and opened the shutters to let in some natural light on the right side and then grabbed a reflector to use as fill.
It is easy making nice pictures when your [...]
lets go ahead and let the cat out of the bag…
I think most of his cards have gone out by now – so I am going to post some of my favorites of my recent photo shoot with my awesome brother Zane Francis.
For the entire shoot you can visit my flickr -
Zaggleberry Finn
My brother came down over the weekend and we snuck in some time shooting some photos for an upcoming project of his. This is a sneak preview.
It was a lot of fun, and I was a bit surprised – Zane is a natural.
I think I hear Ralph Lauren calling…
the bather
I decided to go back through some photos from my recent trip to Budapest and stumbled upon one of my favorite subjects while I was in Hungary. While visiting the Széchenyi Spa I noticed this gentle man standing to the side, alone, taking in the view.
As I snapped a few photos, I remember our [...]
the birds
Crazy weather rolled in this afternoon and the trees in our backyard became home to swarms of birds. I ran out on my deck and I felt like I was in a winter time version of Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds.
