The Kerr family (with our recent plus one) is back home after a beautiful natural birth at the Phoenix Baptist Hospital birthing center.  Baby Zoe Clare Kerr joined us at 7:59 PM on Friday, March 16th weighing in at seven pounds, two ounces and twenty-one inches tall.  This picture is, I’m sure, the first of many […]

Here’s another from the series of maternity photographs I’ve been working on with Jessi and our daughter-to-be.  I was very happy with how this one turned out as it shows Jessi in a very candid moment, despite the fact that she was standing amidst my studio setup.  The smile and posture came out very natural, which […]

I’m sad to say I haven’t posted anything in two months due to an overwhelmingly busy first year as a high school teacher while simultaneously finishing up school… among other responsibilities.  However, I can’t stay sad for long looking at this picture of my lovely wife carrying the daughter that I will finally be able to meet in […]

Just another day in Arizona. f/22, 1/60 sec., ISO-100

You should click to view this one at full size to really appreciate it.  I took another shot at the panography technique-a little more ambitious this time.  This final image is a composite of 130 photographs, manually matched up and pieced together to create one panoramic scene.  This is the building where I work every day on […]

I’m still not sure if I’m pleased with this one or not. I figured I’d just post it and let my readers decide for themselves (all two of them). This was taken approximately 10 minutes before sunrise on Saturday morning. f/8, 1/25 sec., ISO-200

I went out to watch the sun rise this morning and brought my camera with me.  Each year around this time I can’t help but be infatuated with the texture of the cotton fields surrounding my home and no matter how many times I photograph them I keep finding myself pointing a camera there. f/8, […]

I gave my high school students an object study  assignment requiring them to bring an inanimate object from home to photograph.  One of my students brought in this 1960′s vintage Panasonic radio and left it overnight so I couldn’t help but study it a bit myself. This one was actually taken with one of the […]

Here’s another from the creative pet portrait set.  I couldn’t decide which of the two I liked better so I’ll post them both.

Made this one driving home from work the other day. This is the SRP plant off 75th Avenue and Northern. The field of solar dishes always catches my eye. It’s almost surreal seeing them arranged in rows as if they were planted and are growing there like the surrounding corn and cotton fields.
