Waves. This photo makes me feel at rest in a time when I feel restless.

Here is a tiny preview from this last Saturday’s wedding shoot. There are a lot of photos to get through, but I thought that this was an easy one that could be posted almost right away. Stay tuned to the Captus Blog for more.

My good friend Tim and I have been talking about shooting stars for the last few years, but rarely go out and do so. We decided to head up toward Snoqualmie on a cloudy night during an almost full moon… the worst conditions for photos of stars. But, our time is limited since he will be on the road for a few months, so we just went anyway.

Laura and I have a friend named Katie. She is a very talented musician, and has an incredible voice. She plays a variety of venues in Seattle. Like her Facebook page to keep up with where she will be headed next.

It was really good getting to know Kerstin and Mike. They met through mutual friends and when Mike was deployed with the Army to Iraq, they stayed in touch and grew their relationship. He is currently based here in Washington, but their wedding will be back in their home state of South Carolina before Mike is deployed again. Best wishes to the two of you. I thoroughly enjoyed being your engagement photographer.

I really like the Kodak Portra 400NC film. Normally, I shoot with a Pentax SP II, but I got a Ricoh Rangefinder recently so I tested out some Ilford Delta 3200 B+W and some Portra, but the Ricoh isn’t very reliable, which is unfortunate.
First is the Pentax:







Now the Ricoh 500:

Here are a few from a recent shoot with Katelyn and Andrew in Everett. We had a great time even though it was cold and windy. They chose the marina in Everett because its a place that has sentimental significance for milestones in their relationship. I am looking forward to their wedding in August!

Had a film/digital shoot with Natasha recently. Tim Dyk and Laura helped out on a rare sunny day in Seattle. We had a great time and it was my first shoot with Kodak Portra 400NC. I might try out the VC soon too. NC is “Natural Color” VC is “Vivid Color”. So far, its one of my favorite color films.
