Since the mountain views are to the west, morning light just blinds the subjects instead of glowing behind their heads as it does in the evening. Thankfully, I’ve learned the trick of doing more candid photos of people interacting with each […]

The last time I took family photos for the Wilsons was at Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado.

While I’m based in Colorado Springs now, I lived in Kansas City for 6.5 years and that’s really where my photography journey took off.
