Sorry it has been so long since an update but my time has been well spent. I decided to invest in some new gear and most of my summer I have been working on honing my skills and mastering what I already know. There are going to be a number of huge updates to this website in the next few weeks. This year I have been working with more and more Seniors in High School to create memorable portraits to capture the spirit of youth in transition. I have to say out of all of the things to photograph it is really interesting to work with other creative individuals who are willing to do just about anything to make a cool photo. Here are some of my favorites from yesterday.

After I purchased my telephoto lens I started to have a greater interest in photographing sports. My girlfriend Lisa is the starting setter for the Winona State University Volleyball Team so I started there but with the intent to expand my horizons I started to photograph football games for the university and also for Winona Senior High School. Even though the lighting on the Paul Giel field is not the best for night games but I think that under the conditions the pictures are fantastic.

If you wish to view or order pictures from the Winona High School games you can follow this link Winona Football or you can go to DigiProofs and use the guest password of: winona to access them.

I am excited to announce that I have helped produce a TV commercial for a design studio here in Winona MN. I first came in contact with Circle Six Design when they contacted me to photograph a charity event for the Winona Humane Society. I have done a few other smaller photographic jobs for them but by far this one is the most exciting.

Soon I will add a copy of the movie to the portfolio section of my website but until then you can view it at Circle Six Design. It was really interesting to produce for me because I still had the chance to use my still frame camera to make fast action stop frame animation. It was a wonderful chance to let my creativity out and I am pretty satisfied with how it turned out. I would have liked more time to shoot it a few more times. Thanks for stopping!
