into the sun...


Shot this photo of Tyler and his new-to-him Canon AE-1. I took the photo with the Mint SLR670m camera shooting directly into the sun and metering off from Tyler's shirt...

elms motel...


A evening/dusk photo of the Elms Motel in Bishop California taken with the Mint SLR670m camera...

bristlecone trees...



A couple more photos of bristlecone pines in Patriarch Grove. Such an enchanting place. Hope to go back someday to document more of the area...

Sherri and Sadi...


A photo of Sherri and Sadi that was taken earlier in the Summer when we were spending the day in Rockwall...

a favorite of wilco...


One of my favorite images of Wilco. Taken with my Leica M8 and 50mm Summicron lens. I recently processed a few of these images through my Impossible instant lab the new black and white film...

another end to summer...


Another end to Summer is upon us. Sherri and I take Sadi back to college tomorrow. Got the chance tonight to take one last photo of Sadi and Maci while we were all eating dinner at Tamales in Greenville. Gosh I am so proud of both of these girls...

biker girl...


Love this new Impossible Hard Color film! Pyper was showing me how fast she could ride her bike now. When she finally got tired, I grabbed a shot while she was still. Even though I have boxes of Impossible film shots of Pyper, it just never gets old. Can't wait to share them with her when she is grown...

me and my M6...

A photo* of me and my Leica M6 in the Patriarch Grove of the Bristlecone Pine Forest. I cannot wait to get the 35mm film photos back from my trip...

bristlecone patterns...


Patterns painted on the film using sunlight and a bristlecone pine tree in the shade...

one of many firsts...


So many firsts in all of our lives. So thankful to be a part of so many firsts in Pyper's life. If you know Pyper, you would know that she is so afraid of just about everything that takes any risk. Stepping on this bike tonight was such a significant first for her. So glad that Tyler and I are always there to capture times like this with both of our perspectives. Tonight, my perspective was caught with my SLR680 camera and Impossible instant film...

the lonely road - patriarch grove...


Patriarch Grove is home to some of the largest and oldest bristlecone pines (patriarch trees). Such a surreal & lonely place. Not exactly packed with people, because of the remoteness. Caught this guy walking up the trail to the top...
