Whenever friends come into town for a visit, we try take them to our favorite places in the area. A few of the locations that we visited this time were Daniel Smith, Richmond Beach and the Redhook Brewery. Below are a few photos from our trip to the beach with our dear cousins Krista and Daniel Fogt. For some reason, I felt like really tweaking with the photos, applying heavy vignettes, ramping up the detail, messing with the color saturation and the vibrancy. I like the results, which I think ended up somewhere between cross processing and lomography.

Here they are, a few of my favorite selects from the wedding of Sarah and Matt Eichelberger. Enough said!

On May 8th, I had the wonderful opportunity of witnessing and photographing the marriage Sarah and Matt Eichelberger in Bellevue, Washington.  Before this big day arrived, Sarah, Matt and I spent some time together in downtown Kirkland taking some engagement photos.  Below are a few images from that day, with photos from the wedding soon to come.

Living in the Pacific Northwest means that whenever the sun decides to peek out for a day or two, we are all drawn like ants to honey into the warm rays.  My wife and I are no exception.  On our way back from running a few errands, Asha insisted in stopping for some ice cream and a walk through the park.  I obliged and happily shot a few photos during our excursion.  Below are my selects.

Although it has been nearly a YEAR since my posting with images from a day hike at Cougar Mountain, the video below was “shot” the very same trip (on my mkII).  The reason I have been procrastinating is that I have not had any video editing software until yesterday.  Although I own the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Suite, there are no apps for editing video with is in the package.  So currently I am running a thirty day trail of Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.  Yes, the music is cheesy.  Yes, the shots are shaky.  Yes, the transitions are lacking.  Yes, this is my first video edit.  But who cares!  You have to start someplace, and it seems that this is my starting line.
