Photo blog featuring outdoor, travel and nature photos.

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 was looking over the sales report that accompanied my most recent payment from Mira - one of my stock agencies, and was pleasantly surprised to see the above image was used in Time Magazine! [click to continue…]

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…]

I thought I would continue the cover theme for a couple more days since we have a nice batch of new ones. This is a photo from Organ Pipe National Monument in Arizona during the amazing spring bloom two years ago. This looks really appealing to me right now – in Alaska we currently have mostly dirty snow and leafless trees. Alaska makes a drastic transition in the next couple of months.

I picked a good time to do a series of posts on our new covers as the 2007 Milepost arrived in the mail just today. This is a cover I’m really proud and excited of as the Milepost is a long running publication that I remember well even as a kid – every vehicle traveling to and through Alaska back then and today has one of these on the dash, as well they should.

I think I mentioned here before that I still get a kick out of seeing my photos on the cover of publications. Since I started doing some shameless self promotion in my last post, I thought I would continue by sharing some of our new covers over the next few days. This cover of Fodor’s, along with the cover of Frommer’s Costa Rica 2007 are both from our trip to Costa Rica in 2004. I haven’t written about that wonderful trip here yet, but you can go to our main website to see more of our photos of Costa Rica.

Most people who view a mature forest full of big beautiful trees would mistakenly call it an old growth forest. To be an old growth forest, some of the big beautiful trees need to start falling down due to natural causes. The fallen trees can block streams creating valuable habitat for fish and other animals, and the decomposing tree offers the forest other benefits. This is why old growth forest is so important.
I read up on this a few years ago while visiting the redwoods and was determined to photograph an example of an old growth forest. While out hiking one day I found this scene which I thought did just that. I knew this wouldn’t be a calendar or travel image, but we work with a number of text book companies and I thought they could use it. So what does this have to do with Popular Photography?

Here is another recent cover image for the Gresham, Sandy and Troutdale Phone Book. This image is of the Vista House overlooking the Columbia River. This Columbia Gorge area along the Columbia River in Oregon is very photogenic.
After a long day and a half of travel, I’m now at the NANPA Conference and hope to provide updates when I can.

I must admit, when you sell images nearly every day of the week, over the years the thrill of being published diminishes with one exception; covers!
