I have spent much of this past week working on adding content to the QCPhoto.com gallery site which I expect to bring online in time …
With the weather about to change for the better I visited the shed to see about the tractor. I think it’s going to need some TLC this season! A battery charge, hydraulic fluid, oil change, …

I work very hard to be politically ambiguous and it is not without some trepidation that I write this blog post today. Why? Because I am very much aware that the subject of these photographs …
Available light photography at a Des Moines, Iowa, reception. This is the third time I found myself on-location photographing for this particular family! I’ve got some of the best clients around! Anyway, the nighttime turned …
Session Four was an abridged session featuring only a few different changes of clothes as, I believe, this was a pick up session to complete the model’s portfolio. Photographed in the Quad Cities: the District …
As was the case with the first two sessions the temperatures outside made photographing a challenge for the model. I was always amazed at how each of them dealt with the 20-35 degree weather. Often, …
I recently thought about this session that Laura Gibson did with Portland Cello Project a year ago at Daytrotter Studios in Rock Island. I had been working on my in-house audio setup when I remembered …

What’s more fun than a pair of Technics 1200 turntables, a mixer and headphones? Answer: making a photograph of them using Kodak’s P3200 film, that’s what!
Thanks for visiting! Enjoy your weekend!
I have been meaning to create a series of posts showcasing some of my favorites from my time as a photographer with SK Models in Rock Island. While I am not actively photographing with Aaron, …
While we waited for the DJ to start the grand entrance I had a bit of fun with the fisheye lens to create an impromptu portrait of the guys.
Another photo I created for Fall Project 2011. Don’t let the date on the building fool you; it was fall when I shot this!
I’m still going through the film scans I got back from the photo lab the other day. With this delivery I’m finally able to start putting together photos that will make up the “Fall Project …
The title of this post pretty much sums up the image. This was the first time I went inside of the Outing Club’s bowling alley. In fact, it was the first time I was made …
Help Portrait was a wonderful event I was blessed to be a part of back on December 10, 2011. Three of us were assigned to be photographers that day and, for the most part, we …
Did I create some “standard” photos of this couple walking into their reception? Of course I did. But it is this photo that caught my eye in the edit process as one that helped to …
It has been a fun 24 hours since releasing the news that QC Photo has been re-tuned for my 2012 clients and already I have had some good response! As I mentioned in a previous …

Film35 is a fun service and I have been pleased with the overall response to the offering. Most of the people I have heard from love …
Yesterday’s photo reminded me of this, rather different, variation of the front-of-the-church photograph.

In lieu of a “Photo of the Day” post I wanted to share some images from the Tipton, Iowa portrait I did in September. Molly & Michael’s session took place a year after they were …

Wrapping up “Czech Week” is a photo I created while the family & I headed out to explore the downtown and shopping district in Brno.
For more photos and sound from my trip to Czech Republic …
Majak means “lighthouse” which, as I was reminded by Alan, is a bit ironic considering Czech Republic is a landlocked country. But the term “lighthouse” was not chosen for its literal interpretation but, rather, because …
I can’t recall if I have already posted this photo to the blog (I suspect that I have). If so it was a while back and I figured it would be OK to bring it …
