latest commission: Davenport, IA

Recently I received a commission to make a collection of photos to commemorate someone’s time in the city of Davenport, Iowa. Pictures of downtown Davenport have been done.. a lot. However, I’ve never actually photographed the area myself, so I was eager to find a way to take an extensively photographed area and make the pictures my own. For my first efforts and a short window of time to come up with a finished project, I am pleased with how they turned out.

The requirement was black and white images.

St. Patrick’s Day

I was recently hired to photograph a wonderful Irish family in a St. Patrick’s Day parade. Thank you, Kelly family, for allowing me to spend this day like I never have before! It was an honor to walk with you.

And here are some of my parade favorites.

Johnston- Long Grove, IA

During the last week of August I had the privilege of photographing a farm in Long Grove, Iowa that is over a hundred years old. It is a place filled with wonderful things to look at every where I turned! I really enjoyed being on this farm, even while an intimidating horse kept nudging the back of my head while I was trying to compose a shot and a crazy cat kept climbing me like a tree!
