New York has a way of turning motion, light, architecture, and memory into the same experience.

I made this image from the Tudor City Bridge shortly after sunset, layering long exposures to build the city's movement and glow into something closer to how it feels than how it literally looks.

Chris and I are headed back in a couple of days to see a few shows, and I’m looking forward to walking those streets again with a camera in hand.

Storm light, moving water, and the quiet strength of the Oregon Coast.

This image of the Coquille River Lighthouse was made during one of those moments when the weather becomes part of the composition. The clouds, surf, and structure all seemed to be pushing against each other, which is exactly the kind of energy I love photographing along the coast.

Shortly after Chris and I get back from New York, I’ll be heading to Oregon to lead a coastal photography workshop. I’m looking forward to helping photographers slow down, read the conditions, and build stronger images from scenes like this.

🔥 BIG NEWS for Texas photographers! 🔥

I’m genuinely excited that I’ll be learning in person this August from who I consider to be the best Photoshop educator online, and he’s coming to Dallas for the Dallas Photography Summit hosted by Dallas Professional Photographers’ Association

PiXimperfect has built a global reputation for transforming the way photographers edit, create, and think visually. Seeing that level of mastery live, not just on a screen, is something special. And clearly I’m not the only one who thinks so; we’re already halfway sold out six months in advance.

For years I believed great images were all about what happened in camera. Experience has taught me something different: the images people dream about don’t just come from capture, they come from vision, skillful editing, and the right tools. Photoshop is one of those tools that can take your work from solid…to extraordinary.

If you’ve ever wanted to elevate your images, your workflow, and your editing confidence, this is the workshop to attend.

Only 8 days left to see my B&W exhibition at the Eisemann Center in Richardson. A precursor to my next coffee table book, the show explores the natural beauty our eyes perceive when light & shadow are the only means of conveying meaning. As one person at the opening stated,”This opened my eyes to a different beautiful way of seeing the world around me.” Stop by this weekend and let me know what YOU perceive. Don’t forget to sign my guest book and let me know your favorite!

My show runs through 06/28 but I’d love to see you there this Saturday! I’ll be there from 5:00-8:00 to answer questions. Why black & white? Where do you get inspiration? And so on….

Thank you so much for all who came out tonight for the show opening! Thank you also for all the kind words & phrases like: “stunning”, “mesmerizing”, “goosebumps”, “eye-opening”, “a new way of seeing” & “I didn’t realize the potential”. My favorite: “Can you teach me how to do this?”

For those who missed the opening reception, I will be doing an Artist Meet & Greet on Saturday the 14th of June from 5:00-8:00. The exhibit is open for daily viewing Monday - Saturday from 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM & will be up through June 28.
