Head First

Last week, I was assigned to shoot a portrait of a new swimming coach at a local high school. The day before, I had just lit another portrait with three lights, but this time I tried to see what I could do with a single (direct, since I don’t have an off-camera cord) strobe. Natrona [...]

Rachel and her mustache

Drunk people are funny. And yes, that’s a tattoo. The Albany, Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Denzel Douglas

This afternoon I got a quick assignment to photograph Denzel Douglas, a point guard here at Casper College who signed with Idaho and I thought it’d be another good chance to practice my on-location lighting. We only have two Dynalites here, so I had to use an on-camera 550EX to trigger the optical slaves on [...]

Eye Black

While working on a small story about the Wyoming football team’s equipment manager, the starting quarterback, Brett Smith, came into the equipment room to get his eye black on before the game. Thank you, access.

Click-or-Treat

Didn’t have an assignment Saturday, so I went downtown where most Casper businesses opened their doors to trick-or-treaters for the afternoon. When I was back in Columbia, I covered an event similar to this, but there were a ton more kids here and the costumes were some of the best I’ve seen. For real.

Security

Covered my first roller derby earlier tonight.

The Violist

I had to shoot a portrait today of Michael Wilson, a local viola player, for our arts section. I had originally planned to use two lights, but I ended up forgetting them and just had the one I usually keep in my bag. Probably for the best.

When Stars Align

A few weeks ago, the Trib’s photo editor, Gerik, told me that I was going to shoot the cover photo for the Basketball preview section the paper does each season. You might remember Parker Eshelman’s shot of Aldon Smith for the football section, so I knew this portrait had to be just as bangin’. After [...]

Big pimpin’ on N.Y.E.

I’ve never seen so many people try to take pictures of this guy. He was definitely the best-dressed person in Kansas City last night.
