Sunset Magazine cover, October, 2008.
This just arrived in the mail a few minutes ago, and I gotta admit, it is a really cool to have the cover of a magazine like Sunset!
We had two Zion images being considered as finalist for this cover, the other one was this image of Temple of Sinawava in Zion. That photo ended up being used as a full page in this months issue of Via Magazine – so now both photos are happy!
Here are more Zion National Park photos.

Like yesterday’s image, the above poster was also part of the market test in LA; here is my original post and photo on that story. The image was from the Hidden Falls Trail in Grand Teton last year at this time.
So it is really exciting to report this image was also licensed for unlimited nationwide bus stop signage for one year, along with some other uses! [click to continue…]

Last winter I shared the original version of this photo in my Seward comes to Los Angeles post, and talked about how it was going to appear on billboards in the Los Angeles area over a 12 week period – this is how the actual billboard looked.
What I didn’t know; this was a test market, and fortunately the test went well. So now Nature Valley and their ad agency liscended the image for unlimited billboard use nationwide for one year! It will appear primarily in hispanic markets in major cities across the U.S. Pretty cool.

American Road cover.
This image has been on a bit of a roll lately by also appearing on the cover of this year’s The Milepost.

This photo was from our trip to San Diego a little over a year ago.
Magazines and books often select more then one photo to mock up for cover consideration. We had been on a bit of a losing streak lately missing out on what could have been exciting covers for National Geographic Adventure and Via Magazine. Maybe now our luck is changing!

I think I posted this photo on the blog last October the day after I captured it – well this month it is on the cover of Fort Wayne Living! Here are more of our Las Vegas photos.

Well I haven’t subjected you to my shameless self promotion in awhile, but this one is too excited to pass up. For the second year in a row I have a photo on the cover of The Milepost!
As I wrote last year, this is a special cover for me, as I remember growing up, every traveler through Glennallen carried a copy of this extremely valuable travel guide. To this day, I still make sure I have the current Milepost with me as I travel around Alaska and Canada as it has detailed mile by mile descriptions of anything you may encounter – not only the mountains and rivers, but the restaurants and campgrounds as well. If you are driving to Alaska, you must have the latest copy of The Milepost!
The photo was taken in late September at Tern Lake, part of the Chugach National Forest, about 35 miles out the Seward Highway from Seward. Wait a second, a quick peak at The Milepost tells me this lake is 37.2 miles from Seward.

Hidden Falls, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.
This photo is also part of the Nature Valley ad campaign for Los Angeles and Orange County, California - this image will be appearing on bus shelters in the area over the next couple of months.
You might remember this images from last summer, it was from the Hidden Falls Trail in the Grand Tetons.

This image was captured within the city limits of Seward, Alaska – looking out at Mt. Alice and the Chugach National Forest.
If you are in Los Angeles or Orange County, California over the next 12 weeks, you might see this image on a billboard promoting Nature Valley products. Pretty cool!

If you have followed this blog for long, you will remember the wonderful time we spent around the Grand Tetons this past June. It is nice to have images from that trip already in print – from pond to print in less then 6 months!
This is one of the advantages of digital. During the days of shooting slides, a trip like the one we took to the desert southwest last winter would just now be making it to market. With digital, that trip paid for itself within just a few months!
These trips may pay for themselves quicker, but they won’t begin to pay for any of the homes in this catalog!
Here you can read more about our travels to the Grand Tetons on the photo blog.

I thought I would share our most recent cover – this just arrived in the mail. Not only is it fun to have a cover, but this Explorer’s Guide to Arizona looks like a great guide – it could come in very handy this winter. We are planning to spend some time in this warm state this winter.

We just received a copy of this Palm Springs Phone Book cover over the weekend, I thought it turned out pretty nice. We spent a little time in the Palm Springs area two years ago, we hope to get back to the area this winter.

I’m not much of a network TV fan any more, but I must admit, I can’t wait to see the new CBS drama Viva Laughlin this fall – well at least the first 2.5 seconds. Why? Because they are using the above Laughlin, Nevada photo in the opening intro sequence. I must admit it will be pretty fun seeing my photo on TV, but I’m going to need to be pretty quick with the Tivo pause button or I will probably miss it!
Here are more Laughlin, Nevada photos.

The May / June issue of Alaska Magazine was very good to us. Along with the above photo of the Seward Campground in an ad for the Milepost, we had photos in two different articles and then received a very nice mention in bold in the In Print section. This is definitely an issue to be proud of!

I promise, this is the last of the new covers! It had been a couple of months since I posted a cover photo on the blog, so I did have some catching up to do.
This is current year’s Seward Chamber of Commerce Visitor Guide for Seward, Alaska. The Chamber was one of my very first customers many years ago, and their cover is one I’m always proud to be a part of!

I find I’m often frustrated when shooting extreme activities. The mountains never look as steep, and the drops as high when I look at my photos after the fact. A couple of years ago I discovered the secret to shooting extreme activities; [click to continue…]
