Another year in the books! It’s time for my annual post where I share some favorites from the last 12 months and look back on what the year was like. While it didn’t hold the level of adventure that 2022 did (it’s hard to top a road trip to Alaska!), I still got out for some backpacking trips in the mountains and time spent in the desert and prairie. Spring this year was wet and incredibly green on the Great Plains, which made for excellent photography before the mountains melted out. Once the passes were snow free…
Read morePhotographing the Lunar Eclipse on Large Format Film
While I’ve always enjoyed seeing the moon turn red during an eclipse, I’ve honestly never made any attempt to capture it in an image. This time I decided to try something out, but I also wanted the image to appear like my own, something that would work with my personal style. The prairie was an obvious choice and I knew of a homestead that faced in the correct direction to make it work. Seeing how I shoot on film, I also wanted to get it right on just one sheet and not a composite. A multiple-exposure image of the eclipse progressing across the sky would be perfect for this spot…
Read moreFocus Scales for Large Format Cameras
Have you ever wanted to be a little more precise with focus when using a view camera? Where exactly should we set the focus and what aperture should we use to ensure a full depth of field with everything sharp from near to far? Raise your hand if you’ve ever used the method “just focus on something and stop down to f32.” It’s ok, I’m guilty of taking that approach myself. It works more often than we’d like to admit. But wouldn’t it be nice to know with 100% certainty that you nailed the focus and used the correct aperture?…
Read moreUsing Wide Angle Lenses on 4x5 Film
When first making the leap into the world of large format, it’s pretty common to start off with a lens somewhere around 135mm or 150mm. It’s a great and affordable standard focal length to get your toes wet in the format, I still use a 135mm all the time because it’s just so natural. However, almost everyone will find themselves wanting more than one lens at some point. If your tastes take you into the world of portraits or closeup nature, chances are you’ll want something longer. If grand scenic landscapes are your calling then you’ll inevitably desire something wide….
Read more4x5 Lenses - Choosing the Best Focal Length
Whether you’re just starting out with large format photography or looking for the next lens to expand your shooting style, choosing the proper focal length for the scene makes a big difference. What I’ve noticed with 4x5 is that unlike smaller formats, it’s a lot harder to pick out what focal length a photographer used when taking an image. When viewing an image shot on a DSLR of a flower bush pressed close to the lens and a grand mountain scene in the background, it’s often easy to tell that an extreme wide-angle lens was used. This becomes a little more difficult to pick out when a wide angle lens is 75mm compared to 24mm and distortion almost unnoticeable. This has led to a lot of people asking me “what focal length did you use for this image?”…

This is just going to be a quick one! As many of you may know, new CT scanners are being installed in airports around the world at a rapid pace. These new scanners are being used to inspect carry on baggage and Kodak has reported that only one pass through the scanner will destroy your film. For decades it has been the recommendation to simply let your film go through the carry on X rays, but that is no longer the case….
Read morePushing the Dynamic Range of Color Negative Film
Color negative film has increasingly become a larger part of my workflow over the last several years and with good reason: the flexibility of the stuff is just phenomenal. It can be used to capture all the delicate subtleties of a low contrast scene as well as landscape scenes with intense dynamic range. If you don’t know what you will be getting into when you head out for a shoot it’s an excellent choice because it can handle anything you throw at it, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be used for a specific purpose or aesthetic either. Color negatives are the film type that I get the most questions about, mostly because people see such a wide variety of looks coming out of the same film types…

If you’ve been following me for a while - especially my recent work - you’ve probably noticed that I’ve got a passion for Portra. This film can have such a unique color palette that is flattering for many types of subjects and light conditions, but it’s also one of the films that I’ve gotten the most questions about when it comes to metering and shooting…

If you’ve browsed through my images, chances are you’ve noticed that I’m a big fan of twilight and early morning light; the soft warm glow on the landscape is just sublime. Shooting in twilight comes with its own set of challenges, but those are greatly increased when trying to use a large format view camera. I’m going to share some tips that can help you out when the light is fading fast, or when you arrived well before sunrise and don’t want to miss the morning glow because you can’t see anything…
Read moreGND Filters - Getting the Perfect Exposure in One Shot
It’s time for me to answer another set of frequently asked questions, one that I get almost weekly so I need to make a blog post about it. Do you use GND filters, how do you choose the right filter, which ones should I buy, how do you position them, and how do you meter for them? Well the answer to the first question is a big definite yes, I use GND filters for the majority of my images and I will explain the rest throughout this post in great detail...

It's time for a long overdue post. Looking back through my archives, I realized that I've covered topics like film selections and scanning film but to date I've skipped one really important part: metering and exposing color film. This is something I get quite a few questions about so bear with me while I try to be very thorough and cover topics from different lighting conditions and how I would meter with the various film types, both color negatives and slides...

At the end of 2015 I ditched the Colorado snow and headed for the warm sun of Death Valley, California. Well, okay, it’s not that warm there in December (stupid northern hemisphere and science) but the days are far more pleasant and the nights more mild than they are in Colorado this time of year. I’m going to write a bit about my experiences in the park but mostly I want to share the images! Death Valley National Park...

As the year 2015 comes to a close, I like to look back and see where my images have progressed and where I want them to go in the future. It’s also a good time to reflect on how I’ve grown personally over the last twelve months. I would say 2015 was another great year! Sometimes after a year as amazing as 2014 it can be hard to compete but I still grew a lot this year, took some wonderful […]

The other day while riding my bike down a river trail lined with golden autumn cottonwoods, I somehow found myself wondering how my life would be without the beauty of nature. More specifically, my connection with nature that's happened from years of experiencing it through the mindset of a landscape photographer. The thoughts started to roll through my head as I pedaled along for miles, and I realized that I've come...

2014 has already flown by and once again it's been a successful year with great adventures and plenty of new photos! I always like to look back at my progress each year and I think I've grown both as a photographer and a person throughout the year. This year I was able to get some of my best images ever out of nearby Rocky Mountain National Park, and I continued to explore off the beaten path in Colorado and other parts of the West. Many locations I went to were a first time for me and I can't wait to see them again! All told, I think I spent somewhere between 6 to 8 weeks worth of nights this year either in my car, in a tent, or sleeping under the stars on the ground. It's no doubt the most time I've spent camping...
Read moreSolitude in the Tetons - September 2014
The Grand Tetons are some of the most dramatic peaks out there, rising more than 7,000 feet above Jackson Hole without any foothills whatsoever. With all the awesome mountain ranges there are in Colorado it can be easy to forget about the wild beauty of Wyoming, so I had never really been able to explore the Tetons before. This September, I decided to head out there and see them for myself.
The Tetons are well know for their epic beauty, endless reflecting lakes and ponds, and long-lasting sunrises with amazing hues of pink and purple. These traits have brought people here for decades, by the bus load. Since I hadn't had the opportunity to explore the Tetons before I still enjoyed the roadside vistas (let's face in the views really are outstanding along the highway), but I also wanted to take the opportunity to get away from the crowds and the beeping sounds of 2-second timers that come with modern cameras.
With that idea in mind, my friend Lance and I decided to get a permit and hike into the backcountry to spend the night. I chose Lake Solitude as our destination, because it looked like it would give a good view around the back of the peaks and it was near the Cascade Canyon backcountry zone where we could camp. The hike is just under 10 miles, but we decided to take the Jenny Lake shuttle and save 2 miles. For me that still makes for a good day's hike when loaded with cameras and camping gear. Right away I noticed I was breathing easier because the elevations here were a little lower than the hikes I'm used to in Colorado. Lake Solitude is only at 9,000 feet, which is lower than most starting points for the trailheads that I'm used to.
One of the special things about this hike is that the views are downright amazing the whole way! I feel like many hikes I take are in the forest the whole time until you reach a lake or treeline, but this hike takes you through a sparsely vegetated canyon with epic views of the Grand Tetons the whole way.
Even at the backcountry campsite the views were still awesome. This has to be the best view from a tent I've ever had. We ended up making the hike with plenty of time to get up to the lake for sunset, so we set up camp and continued on. Lake Solitude is about a mile from the campsites.
The late summer tundra around the lake was a mix of green and reds. Soon this place will be covered in feet of snow and won't be seen again until next summer. There were a lot of interesting white granite boulders scattered about. After watching the Grand Tetons soak up the last of the day's sun, we headed back to camp. I left the shutter open most the night for this star trail image.
We awoke a couple hours before sunrise and hiked back up to the lake. The air was as still as could be, and we were even lucky enough to be treated to some clouds in the sky and get a beautiful sunrise! This came as quite a pleasant surprise as the forecast said we wouldn't have a cloud for days. We even had some off and on rain falling throughout the sunrise. Gentile droplets pattering away on the perfectly calm lake, it was a special experience.
A while after sunrise, bands of clouds started to move in and fill the sky. The lake was still perfectly calm and the reflection was outstanding. The Tetons catch a very interesting light in these late summer mornings. The sun rises too far south to light them directly, but the still seem to glow from reflected light coming through the canyon. As a photographic note, I want to mention that one particular lens focal length really seemed to come in handy for the entire trip: 35mm (on full frame cameras). Whether I was on the roadside or in the wilderness, that seemed to be the equivalent focal length I was using the whole time. With how tall these peaks are, it surprised me that I wasn't using a wider lens. If you come to the Tetons, you may want to bring a lens around 35mm with you!
After such an awesome sunrise and backpacking experience, I didn't want to go. I spent some time just enjoying the views from the lake, laying in the grass. I will have to spend a lot more time in the Teton backcountry!
The hike down was a pleasant trip through the amazing scenery. Once we were about a mile from Jenny Lake, the crowds started to become apparent again. It made me very happy to get out there and away from them. As is typical with National Parks, most people will only venture up to a mile away from a trailhead. If you're willing to put in a little sweat equity and hike further, you can almost always have the place to yourself. On the way out of the park the next day, we caught a sunrise at Oxbow Bend. It's no doubt a very popular place but with good reason. Standing on the shore watching the sunrise go on and change colors for nearly an hour was fantastic. The sunrises really seem to last forever in the Tetons, changing from shades of pink and red to purple and blue. It seems as if the winds die down completely every morning as well, just to make these perfect reflections. I exposed sheets of film throughout the sunrise, but something about this light on the trees that only lasted a minute really struck me.
I will certainly be returning to the Tetons again!

Spring on the Plains 2014
With summer just a few days away, I wanted to take a look back on the most beautiful spring season I have ever seen on the plains. Since there were frequent snows through the winter and unusually abundant rainfall the last few months, the prairie has turned green and blossomed like I never could have imagined! As a result, I've been enjoying the unique opportunity to capture this moment that may not happen again for the better part of a decade. Much of this beauty was found right on the plains of northeast Colorado, but I did also take a trip through Wyoming and the Badlands area of South Dakota.
I've always considered the wild purple mustard to be the first sign of spring in the area. It comes out in April as soon as the first bits of grass turn green, but it is usually only seen along roadsides and in small patches of disturbed land. I knew this spring was going to be special when I saw it blooming in fields covering acres!
The grass started getting green very early on and from there the fields just became more lush and vibrant. Incredible sunrises that are common on the plains helped with the scenery.
I found myself going out as often as I could for sunrise, especially on mornings after a thunderstorm. The cool, moist air often results in outstanding displays of thin fog at sunrise that makes for some very special light. The simple scenes of the plains really transform into something else in the right light.
The endless fields of wheat show wonderful subtleties in the fog. I returned to this location many times before there was a perfect morning. The thin fog still reveals the overlaying hues of sunrise, but softens them to a level that isn't often seen. This was a spring to connect with the plains, to let them reveal their true beauty. There is much wonder in the open views they inspire, and after residing here for several years I'm not sure I'd want to live anywhere else.
Much of my loop trip to the Badlands was centered around severe weather. Storms crossed my path on the way up and soaked my tent overnight while camping. This particular storm had an impressive structure and was intensely dark, made even more apparent by the brief moment of bright light on the grass.
When I arrived at the Badlands, I found the open prairie around them to be as verdant as possible. This made an interesting contrast to the towering rock formations.
I wanted to explore some of the Sage Creek Wilderness while I was there. It's the largest patch of grassland wilderness in the country and is seldom visited. It's also a land without any trails, just miles of badlands formations surrounded by prairie. I decided to head to an area called Deer Haven to spend the night. It's a rare wooded section of the Badlands, and ended up having a view almost resembling a scene from the mountains. I didn't see a single other human up here, just me and the true wilderness experience. Overnight and morning severe storms made this a rushed trip out after sunrise, but I'm glad I had the chance to see this area.
Here's another photo from the Badlands for now. I'm still working on some of the images from this trip, so expect to see more from me soon!
When I returned to Colorado, I found we were in the middle of the most incredible spring blossom I've ever seen! Endless fields of wild primrose was covering the hills, almost looking like snow drifts in the distance. It was truly an unbelievable sight to see and something that certainly doesn't happen like this every year.
For years, I've been looking for the perfect sunrise image at the Pawnee Buttes. I've been very happy with ones I have from sunset, but the experience of sunrise it totally different and really comes through in the photos. It's also tricky to photograph the Buttes during a summer sunrise because the sun is behind them. This spring had one final treat for me this week and brought a sunrise with a very unusual quality of light that brightened everything much more evenly. The small bush of wild primrose made the perfect finishing touch. All in all, it's been a fantastic spring, I can't wait to see what lies ahead for the summer! Now I'll be spending a lot more time in the mountains...

Big Bend National Park - April 2014
Big Bend National Park is one of America's lesser visited parks, especially considering its size. This allows for a great chance to find some solitude in a variety of environments from barren desert to forested mountains and lush river valleys. I took the opportunity to head down there in early April, when the park is in the tail end of spring and the scorching heat of the summer hasn't yet arrived. I'm going to share some highlights of my trip and let the photos do most of the talking.
When I first started looking into Big Bend, I knew I wanted to take an overnight trip to the edge of the South Rim of the Chisos Mountains. Centrally located in the park, the Chisos Mountains have the highest elevations in the area at just under 8,000 feet above sea level and can be seen from just about anywhere in the park. Even though I see all sorts of mountains in Colorado, I knew these ones would be different so I made sure to start my trip off in the Chisos.
It's a 12 mile round trip hike to the South Rim and as you can see, the view really was worth it! Some people hike it all in one day, but I wanted to get a sunrise and a sunset out there so I got my overnight permit at the Chisos visitor center and packed in with my tent and camera. A small note about backcountry permits: try to plan all of your overnight stays onto one permit. You can put up to 14 consecutive nights on just one permit and the price is the same for one night or 14, just $10 total. This can include nights backpacking in the mountains and nights spent primitive camping along the unmaintained dirt roads, so ideally you should try to figure out a game plan ahead of time and get the permit as soon as you arrive.
Expect to see a variety of life in the Chisos, from vibrant wildflowers to the robust century plant. That's the plant in the foreground of the image above, I was very interested in the form it had and how it contrasted the surrounding landscape. In just a few weeks after I was there, some of these plants will shoot a flowering stalk up to 20 feet high. This happens only once in the plant's lifetime of about 25-30 years and it dies shortly after the bloom.
After the Chisos Mountains, the next spot I wanted to see was the incredible Santa Elena Canyon. I took my time on the drive over there as I'm a sucker for geology and roadside interpretive sites. I couldn't help but stop at nearly every one to learn about the unusual geology of the area and soak in the grand desert views. The national park system really is fantastic as there are so many ways to enjoy the parks!
The Rio Grande has carved through the massive cliffs of the Sierra Ponce (Mexican side) and the Mesa de Anguila (US side), creating a staggering view of cliffs 1500 feet tall that make up the Santa Elena Canyon. The river was flowing lightly and pleasant to stand in. In theory, one could walk right into Mexico from here though that probably isn't a wise choice legally. Out here it doesn't seem like an international border at all, just complete wilderness. It made me happy to see that this place was still wild!
Of course, there's the vast expanses of Chihuahuan desert that cover the rest of the park. It's certainly worth exploring this area and the unusual life that has adapted to it. The ocotillo grows nearly 20 feet tall and was flowering at the end of each branch at this time of year. Just a few days after a rain, it will completely cover itself in small leaves. The desert parts of the park have some very nice campsites and plenty of opportunities to find some solitude.
As far as my trip outside the park goes, it was very neat to drive through the endless land of western Texas. Many towns seem to have gone through periods of boom and bust out in the frontier, with some places doing better than others. The pumps at this station said gas was $1.29 a gallon so it must have shut down at least a decade ago.
This station was in the Ghost town of Orla, Texas and must have been defunct for much longer than that... Some parts of west Texas look like quite a desolate place.
On the last day of my trip, the kind gentleman that shared the long drive to Texas with me invited me to the Star Party at the Fort Davis Observatory. This was very cool and worth the side trip if you're in the area! They let you look through several of their telescopes and we were even able to see Jupiter's rings and four of its moons! In case the huge wilderness of Big Bend didn't make you feel small enough, gazing into deep space and seeing a nebula where stars are being born should do the trick. This is the Hobby-Eberly Telescope, which was completed in 1997 and at 9.2 meters is one of the largest optical telescopes in the world.
And here's one more photo from the South Rim, this one taken during a moody and dark sunset. Leave a comment and let me know which image is your favorite! If you're ever in the mood to see a quiet corner of the country, I can highly recommend a trip to Big Bend National Park.
To finish up I will leave you with a small video that highlights the trip and shows some of my life behind the lens. It's really a great experience to do what I do!

Where did it all begin?
I'm often asked how I got into photography or how long I've been doing it. The answer isn't always that easy to pin down. Why photography? Why landscapes? Just today, some sort of answer finally hit me so I needed to write it out. When I was 9 years old, my family moved from Wisconsin to the small mountain town of Estes Park, Colorado. My father wanted to break away from his corporate job that was making him travel away from the family more than he wanted, so we moved to open up a small business in the tourist center of town. I didn't really know if I liked it at the time of the move, but it turned out I had horrible near sighted vision and may as well have been blind! I had never really seen the mountains, only the blurry shapes of them until I got a pair of glasses shortly after the move.
Still, as a child I don't remember being very interested in hiking and was out of shape. I have memories of my parents having to drag me up a mountain to go on a hike with them. Sledding in the winter? Sure that's fun! Playing down by the river with my brothers? Sounds good! But don't make me walk up some stupid mountain in the summer all day...
It's hard to believe what we can take for granted in life. Looking back, I'm so very glad I had the opportunity to live in the mountains and that my parents took me on those outdoor adventures anyway. Later on as a teen I have some fond memories of a hike to Loch Vale with my family. Something about that late afternoon trip planted a seed in my memory, and made me realize how lucky I was. When I needed to blow off some steam or think about things as a high school teen, I would go for a night drive through Rocky Mountain National Park and park the car somewhere under the stars and just think. Not many teens have that sort of life.
Well I've started to answer why I spend time out in the landscapes, but where did photography come into all this? Still not an easy answer. I remember playing around with a camera a bit in my high school tech class, but I never actually took a photo class or got to use a darkroom. My dad had a terrible brick of a point-and-shoot digital camera (1.3 megapixels!!) that I would borrow and go exploring with a friend. We would mostly take random photos outdoors and take them back to class, play around with photoshop filters (yeah I know) and pass it off as some sort of tech project.
Just after graduating high school and just before moving out of the mountains, I had an incredible outdoor experience. I was driving around the mountains with a friend, windows down to let in the warm summer breeze as a light afternoon rain started. It was one of those rains where the sun is still shining, but this was different as the rain was so light that it was still warm. We decided to pull over and wander back into the hills, walking along the river. The light drizzle felt so good, smelled amazing, and made a wonderful patter noise on the ground. The late afternoon sun cast a rainbow on anything and everything. As tiny droplets splashed off of every pine needle on every tree, the mist made it look like small rainbows were everywhere. It was fantastic.
Just a few months later, I moved to the massive city of Phoenix, Arizona. It wasn't until I left the mountains that I realized how much I loved them. Any chance I had I would drive up to the hills north of the city to have some solitude and clear my head. The city was obviously too noisy for me but I didn't know that as an 18 year old. I ended up permanently borrowing that previously mentioned camera and found myself wanting to record these locations I would go to for peace and quiet. I guess you could say I got into photography when I was 18, but I don't think anything worthwhile came out of my camera for years.
After leaving Arizona, I spent some time out east in Maryland. At this time it was apparent that photography was a reason for me to be outdoors and the outdoors were a reason for me to take photos. I would go to the mountains of Virginia whenever I had a chance, leaving home at 2am to get to a hilltop at sunrise. I would frequently spend an early morning at the base of a waterfall, all alone until the tourists show up hours later. At this point I had started using a 35mm film camera, but that's a whole different story of how I went from starting with basic digital to using 35mm film and eventually 4x5 film. Having a camera and desiring to get better photos made me go out there as much as possible, even if I didn't get good images out of it for a long time.
Coming back to Colorado at the age of 21 was one of the best choices I have made. I'm never too far from the mountains and there is so much more to see here too. It has given me the chance to both grow as a person and hone in my photography skills.
I guess this gives you some sort of idea of why I spend my time outdoors taking photos. Maybe I've been chasing after the feeling of that misty summer afternoon, trying to capture that emotion in a photograph. I don't know if I'll ever find it exactly, but I know that the mountains and wilderness have become a huge part of my life, thanks in a huge way to my wonderful childhood. It makes me wonder if I don't go out to the mountains, but instead I come home to them...

Top 13 Photos of 2013 and Year in Review
2013 has already come to a close, and it sure was a year filled with a lot of new experiences, opportunities, and of course some great photos along the way. I always like to look back on the year at this time and reflect on what I've accomplished and where I need to grow. Even though I have been photographing for many years, it wasn't until September 2012 that I officially became a business, making 2013 my first full year in business. This has given me a chance to figure out ways to produce income from my passion, gain a lot of experience with summer art shows, and start to learn what makes a business tick. It's been an emotional roller-coaster at times, but in the end I am so grateful to have all the customers I do enjoying my prints in the their homes. The support from everyone has been incredible and made it all possible! As far as photos go, I had some great chances to explore a few new wilderness areas in Colorado over the summer. I knew from first time I ever strapped a tent onto my backpack years ago that backpacking would forever change the way I see and photograph landscapes, taking me to remote locations that not very many people get to see and giving me the chance to get closer to some of the most pristine mountain beauty out there. Even a nice, easy one night trip can take you to some amazing places, so I embarked on several solo one-nighters over the summer and got some great photos out of it.
After the summer, we had the catastrophic flooding of September. I had never before seen the power of a raging river first-hand, and the destruction was unbelievable. It has been amazing to see how the community has rebuilt and how quickly important infrastructure and roadways were back in place, especially in my home town of Estes Park which was hit especially hard by the flooding. You'll even see a couple photos from the floods this year in the following list.
Enough with all the talk! Here are my top 13 favorite photos of 2013, in no particular order. Some are my favorites due to the journeys and memories that accompany them, and some are just ones that I feel are my strongest. Which one is your favorite? Leave a comment and let me know!
