Special Olympics Washington Regionals
April 26th, 2012
So this weekend Saturday was a beautiful sunny day with temperatures making it the warmest day of the year so far. It was also the day that the King County Regional Special Olympics Track & Field tournament was held and I was honored once again to be their photographer. More than 300 Special Olympians and their coaches and families turned out and had a great time. Seattle Seahawk defensive back and special teams captain Roy Lewis made an appearance to help hand out the medals. He was one of a number of local stars that came to help out. It was the few times anyone could remember that it did not rain on the Shoreline Stadium grounds on the day of the track meet. Here are some of my favorite images from the event.

Below is a slideshow with some more highlights of the day.
Spring Makes an Appearance Finally
April 9th, 2012
So this weekend spring finally seemed to arrive after a very wet winter. Discovery Park was grand fun for family and dogs.
Cactus Sunrise
March 29th, 2012
In need of a break from all of the rain we have been having the past few weeks in the Pacific Northwest I sought out this shot of a cactus at sunrise in the Arizona desert. This shot was taken as a test shot before I exposed some old fashioned color film with my Fuji GX 6 x 17 panorama camera. I took a couple of days last month to hang out and absorb some desert environment and the weather was perfect with a high of 78 F. This picture was made in the Organ Pipe Cactus National Park and over the mountains in the distance is the border with Mexico.
Corporate Executive Portrait
February 22nd, 2012
Recently I had an assignment to photograph Marco Abbruzzese, an executive with Wells Fargo Bank. Although we were 40 stories high up over Puget Sound, there was no view of Elliot Bay since we were completely fogged in. I had been hoping to use the view of the Bay but instead discovered that I actually like the intense studio quality of the pure white light coming in through the fog.

February Desert Dreams
February 17th, 2012
After covering an event assignment last week in Phoenix, I took a couple of days to hang out and absorb some desert environment. the weather was perfect with a high of 78 F and it was a nice break from the rain in the Pacific Northwest. This shot was taken with my iphone 4s and I will have more after the film from my panorama camera is processed.
Chilly Morning
January 27th, 2012
I took out our border collies, Charlie and Luna for a run and ball toss and it was cold. Temperature was 32F and there was frost everywhere. Almost fell down after slipping on some black ice in the parking lot.
MOLLY, HARPER AND ALICE
January 27th, 2012
I made a portrait of Mo;y and Alice when Molly when she was 9 months pregnant on a Sunday and then the next Tuesday the Harper came arrived into the world. Now that she just turned 2. I got to photograph them all again. Harper loves playing “Where’s the baby” with me. What a sweet child.
Olympics Across the Puget Sound
January 3rd, 2012
I was out at the Seattle Art Museum’s Olympic Sculpture Park over the weekend. I love the view of the Olympics across the Puget Sound in winter with lots of snow covering the tops and interesting cloud formations.

Portrait of George & Dianne Carofino
December 20th, 2011
Another recent assignment this time to photograph George Carofino and his wife Dianne. We were fortunate to have a beautiful sunny day so we headed out to the beach at Carkeek Park. It turned out to be very clear so we got the Olympic Mountains to show up behind them. Also made a few images of their son Brad and his family on the beach
