About Me

My photo
I have a very strong love for the outdoors and always have since I was a kid whether it be fishing, camping, hiking or other activities. Being raised in the Ozarks in Southwest Missouri, I was given the chance to enjoy the outdoors daily. Since I moved to the mountains in Western North Carolina from the midwest, I have grown an even deeper appreciation of the beauty nature has to offer. Through my lens I want to share this wonder and glory our mountains and other parts of our beautiful country gives us. We just need to pause in our busy lives and take the time to look. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. I hope you enjoy the many images that I have been able to capture and look forward to bringing many more.

Wedding Photography Class

I attended a wedding photography class today in Charlotte with the Photoclassroom group. Lots of information learned today as Brian did his best to get many of us to decide against weddings as a photographer. I think it would definitely put a test to all your photography skills. Looking forward to diving into this part of the business in the future.

Shared my bookmarks with many of the participants there and received alot of good feed back about them. Stayed for the Business class again to obtain additional information that may have not been passed on the first time I took that class. Very good day overall.

Happy New Year/New Projects

Happy New Year Everyone. I hope 2012 brings new and exciting things for you all. I am looking forward to it as I will be working full time now on my Photography business and also my Fly Fishing guiding business and work to combine some exciting projects and trips for my clients. I have been working with the good folks at Mountain Biz Works here in Asheville and Hendersonville to get this up and going..

My newest photography project is my bookmarks that I created with the help of a very talented graphic artist Chelsey Barnes in Asheville. I will be getting these to the printer this week . These are printed on quality heavy glossy card stock. My logo and website information and contact information is on the back. I will be selling these on my website and on my blog as well as some local book stores and other places in the area. You can also purchase them from me directly. Price will be $3.00 each.   Take a look and tell me what you think...
