I’ve been seeing reminders popping up from previous Pemberton Music Festivals, which was sad due to the cancellation of this year’s. It made me think about some of the shots that I took from ...

I took this photo last April while on a bit of an assignment by Rebecca to “just get some shots of Robson Street”. She sends me out of photowalks from time to time to gather shots for various...

As we head into August, I’m getting a little excited for the third installment of the Live At Squamish music festival. Embarrassingly enough, I never posted about last year’s experience, high...

Looking at Flickr the other day, I realized that one of my most popular photos posted there is one I never posted about here. I took this during the weekend of the first Live at Squamish music fe...

You can get the full story on Rebecca’s site, but we made our way to downtown New Westminster a few weekends ago to explore the area. And quite honestly, I was really impressed by a place I tho...

On another trip back to my homeland of Iowa, I thought I should take the opportunity of being here to document a little bit of history while the caucus happened yesterday. With my camera in tow, ...

As this year is coming to an end, I’m thinking about all the things that has happened this past year and doing my best to catch up on them as a recap as much as sharing some of the photos I’v...

I have been so amazed by this trip that Rebecca is documenting right now in Ghana. It’s wowing me with the imagery she is sending back. You should check them out for yourself on her Flickr set.

At work, I have a screen saver that cycles through my flickr stream, and this photo popped up the other day when I came back to my desk. I took this a few months ago when Rebecca and I had a grea...

I had a fairly big project going on with the day job today, but there was a brief moment that relieved a little bit of the stress. I forgot about the email that mentioned Lights was coming in for...

I shot this while crossing the Burrard Inlet in a Seabus to the north shore. This kid was a giddy as I often am while looking out the same windows at the city. It always makes me think about how ...

Just a little fun with long exposure, Rebecca used a drawing app on her iPhone 3GS to make her screen pink and did her best to spell out “love” in reverse. When you shake the phone, the scree...
Last May, Rebecca and I finally made it over to Lighthouse Park on a cool, muggy day. It’s another one of those things that’s been on the list of places to visit after a few boat cruises by i...
