I love this image for so many reasons. From the technical aspect, the “halo” effect comes from the subject being “back lit.” This means the strongest source of light (in this case the sun) is behind the subject. In this “back lit” situation if you let your programmable camera select the settings for your exposure,...
This little Pomeranian puppy altered my view of the “little yappy dog.” He never barked while I photographed his human owner. He is pretty stinking cute and such a natural in front of the camera. These images were taken within a short span of minutes while we were waiting for his human to grab a...
For those of you needing a break from all the online shopping you are doing…what can be cuter than a baby’s bottom, toes and itty bitty fingers! Enjoy…now get back to stimulating the economy!

FALL – my favorite time of the year where everywhere are rich hues of gold, red, and orange. These warm jewel tone colors serve as great backdrops for portrait settings. However this time of the year also brings the threat of rain. Thus always have a “Plan B”. Corbin and his family came to our...
