Out of order...

Vault Door

In an age of electronic fund transfers, credit cards, and all manner of e-money it's fun to see structures that protect tangible assets. :)

College Sports

I recently did some work for an area college. One part of the assignment was to shoot captains from some of the sports teams. Below are some examples.

Fashion Shoot

I recently shot some promotional material for an upcoming fashion event in the Twin Cities. Below is a sample of what will likely be used.

We recently had the pleasure of covering Mike and Jennifer's wedding! The nuptuals took place on Boom Island and the reception was on the Paradise Lady as she sailed up and down the Mississippi. A fantastic 4 piece jazz band kept us supplied with tunes throughout the evening

Mike and Jennifer were a blast to photograph! Here are just a few teasers from the day:

A few random grabs while waiting to shoot...

I get to see all kinds of different stuff when shooting on location. While I was waiting for the model's hair to be finished, I wandered around and snapped a few random photos.

The first is a door-closer-thing. I'm sure there's a better name for it but I can't think of it at the moment. The next photo is of pieces of an old neon light stacked in a jar, and the last is some of the model's wardrobe sitting on the old wood floor.

Cat at T-ball

A cat showed up to my son's T-ball game the other day. We'll call the protagonist "Tom". A couple of the parents had brought dogs (on leashes fortunately) along to the gathering. Oddly, Tom didn't seem worried in the least. At times walking very close to the excited canines. At one point one of the dogs' leash allowed it to rush within 3 feet of the cat before yanking its' owners arm nearly out of it's socket. It was a very interesting encounter to observe, given the potential for fur to fly. I had the feeling that the cat was either oblivious or was so accustomed to kicking dog-butt that a beagle was no reason to get excited...

Fido

Yesterday I shot an assignment for a couple of designers who collaborated on a project that was part of an ASID Showcase Home located in Edina. They did a fabulous job and I had fun shooting it! Below are a couple of detail shots. Carol did a particularly nice job styling the shoot.

I recently went out on Lake Waconia w' Travis, Mike, and Ben to get some fishing photos. All the guys have really nice boats and are serious Anglers. It was great getting out on the water and shooting some fishing stuff. These guys know their stuff and guide as well. Check them out HERE

St. Paul Saintz

This is the second shoot I've done for the St. Paul Saintz. They recently won the top spot at a battle of the bands in the Twin Cities. I love my job because I get to mix w' all kinds of talented people! :) And don't let those scowls fool ya - they're pretty funny guys.

Handbag Shoot down town

I recently did a photo shoot down town for a local handbag designer. It was funny because I looked over my shoulder at one point and there was this lady snapping a shot of me. Carry a long lens and you get attention I guess.



And James (model) having fun hauling handbags to the location...

Art

I came across this guy's stuff today and thought it was pretty wild. The whole human/animal juxtaposition is interesting. I think the firey lady w' the umbrella is my favorite...
