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.

Portrait of a Banker
December 5th, 2011
I had a recent assignment to photograph Dean Bennion, an executive at the Wells Fargo Bank. I love the low intensity of the light over Puget Sound. The bay can be seen out his office window with the Olympic Mountains off hidden in the clouds. In Fact there was rain over most of the horizon. The sky was a mass of clouds. Except for off in the souther end of the Olympics, the sun was trying to get through under the clouds. What a great view from above 40 floors over Elliot Bay.
Snoqualmie Falls From Salish Lodge
October 16th, 2011
On Saturday I was covering an event at Salish Lodge and was struck by the view from the room looking out over the falls. What a beautiful spot. It was late afternoon and the sun was getting ready to set but was still spotlighting the hillside above the fall. The falls were going strong with a great volume of water going down. The Salish Lodge is a very inviting place with a great restaurant an I intend to return someday when not covering an event.

Charlotte Graham | Seattle Photographers Corporate Portrait
March 1st, 2011
Here is another in a series of corporate executive portraits from recent assignments. As always it is a challenge to try and get something different that works and is satisfying as a creative portrait. Charlotte heads a group of five executives in the Real Estate business and I photographed her and all the members of her team in a beautiful home facing Lake Washington. It had wonderful light and great details. She was really great to work with. this was my favorite shot of her.

Executive Portrait of Dean Bennion | Seattle Corporate Photographers
February 24th, 2011
Recently I have been shooting a lot of corporate executive portraits and it is always a challenge to try and get something different that works for the corporation but is satisfying as a creative portrait. When I had to photograph Dean Bennion a VP at Wells Fargo Bank in Seattle, The weather was dark and rainy kind of a typical winter day around here. But I really liked how the sky and water looked from high up over downtown Seattle in the Wells Fargo office Dean works in.

Boeing 777 | Boeing Commercial Airplane Assembly
December 10th, 2010
On an assignment for the magazine Businessweek, prior to it being acquired by Bloomberg, I got to go to Everett, WA and photograph the Boeing 777 as it was being assembled. The Boeing 777 is a long-range, wide-body twin-engine jet airliner manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. It is the world’s largest twinjet and is commonly referred to as the “Triple Seven”. The aircraft has seating for over 300 passengers and has a range from 5,235 to 9,380 nautical miles, depending on model. Its distinguishing features include the largest-diameter turbofan engines of any aircraft, six wheels on each main landing gear, a circular fuselage cross-section, and blade-shaped tail cone. Developed in consultation with eight major airlines, the 777 was designed to replace older wide-body airliners and bridge the capacity difference between the 767 and 747. As Boeing’s first fly-by-wire airliner, it has computer mediated controls; it is also the first entirely computer-designed commercial aircraft.
Although the plant is illuminated partly by florescent lighting which gives everything a green cast, I corrected for that. The green cast on the body of the 777 is a protective coat and is removed before it completed and painted. Boeing doubled the size of the Everett factory which is one of the largest buildings in the world, to accommodate production of the 777.
Every time I fly on a Boeing 777, I remember how they look as I saw them on my tour to watch them come together here in Washington State.
