I'm particularly fond of this image because it is my daughter.The right film and filters coupled with a well placed thin cloud create a memorable timeless portrait.

A charming child's face always makes your heart stop for just a second. A light drizzle added to the soft light wrapping around her.
"Greeting the Dawn"

A senior portrait doesn't always have to been stoic. With an unusual cropping of the photograph, a new level of impact was added.

I love the story this photo tells. And, it's true. He joined her family and now they all have a lot to look forward to.
"My Garden Gate"

This iamge is actually a polaroid that was hand manipulated while still wet. A dental tool is all it took.

"Life-long Lessons"

A pretty family and a musical interlude, what could be more harmonious. It's hard to tell that a spring rain nearly drowned us all out.

A time exposure of 15 minutes captures the comet and the stars circling around the north star.
