Wind Turbine Photos – Wild Horse Wind Farm

My work, Still photography, Sustainability, Travel

I’m really a sucker for wind turbine photos. Maybe it’s just because I’m a stereotypical Seattleite and lover of green energy, but I think these big structures are just really cool looking. This is a shot made with the iPhone’s Hipstamatic app, something I was reluctant to use at first, but which I now really enjoy for occasionally mixing things up. It’s nice to use varying mediums for photography on a regular basis. The Wild Horse Wind Farm is about two hours from Seattle near Ellensburg, Washington and I-90 and this photo is just a glimpse of the 127 turbines.

UW Light Box Displays

It was a great pleasure to finally see my work on the walls of Mary Gates Hall at the University of Washington last week, part of a light box installation that I designed and photographed over the summer. You might have seen periodic blog posts featuring the portraits and other photos I had been working on, which are now featured in the large 3′ x 5′ light boxes in the Center for Experiential Learning and Diversity. I shot most of the photos in the displays and designed the layout as well, which turned out to be a lot of fun. The Center approached me last spring because they were moving to a new office space and they wanted a bright, colorful, display with photos that featured a lot of natural light and outdoor scenes, while also telling the story of their programming and outstanding students. I think the project turned out amazing and I’m especially happy with the final quality of the printing. The detail and texture of a light box is really unique – something that I don’t often get to see with my photos.

Wedding Photos Sneak Peek: Hiley and Tyler

My work, Still photography, Travel, Weddings

I’ve known Tyler since middle school and was honored to be documenting the day he and Hiley were married. Here’s a sneak peek of their wedding photos, including a few scanned polaroids at the end. They were married on the farm of Hiley’s parents near Okanogan, Washington surrounded by goats, chickens, and longtime friends (many of them my own friends as well). The seating for guests even consisted of bales of hay topped with burlap. The ceremony and celebration that followed couldn’t have been better. Have fun in Hawaii you two and I’ll see you after the honeymoon.
