Baby Savannah

Savannah is four months old now. Her older siblings have similar pictures with the wash tub, and her mother wanted a matching one for her. The second picture is from after the session. Posing for photography really wore her out!

Goblin Valley

In spring 2006, we visited southern Utah and Goblin Valley. I took some of the best photography of my life. Unfortunately, most of it was lost. Some of my favorite shots happened to be uploaded to photobucket, but the picture quality isn't that great, and I'll never be able to do decent enlargements.

Skateboarding

I was supposed to take some action shots for a photography class I'm taking, and then in class, we learned about laying and adding color. This was the result.

As a side note, I think these public skate parks are such a great idea. Back in the olden days, when I was a teenager, there was only one place with STUFF to skateboard on. It was expensive to go to, and if you didn't happen to live nearby, distance was an issue. I've noticed these skate parks popping up everywhere.

My eager to please photography volunteers loved having a place to go to, and felt like it kept kids out of trouble. Though, to quote one, "Skateboarding is worse than weed. Once you start, you are addicted, and it's all you can think or talk about."

While that may be true, I think it's better for a teenager to be addicted to skateboarding than to sit around and play videogames all day. Or worse, smoke actual weed.

Carson

This baby was born two months prematurely due to severe pre-eclampsia. His mother has created a youtube video to raise awareness of this surprisingly common and deadly condition. You can see it here or a longer version here.

This will be a place for my to show some photos I've taken. Constructive criticism would be appreciated.
