It kept happening too. There were probably 5 hairs stuck there before I packed up for the day.

Just keep it simple…

It’s been a rough winter. Lost our cat, awful snowfall totals, terrible mountain conditions, hernia surgery, and now a shoulder injury— I’ve been over this winter since before it began.

As a result of *gestures vaguely* all that, I chose to put the photography business in the back seat in order to focus on keeping my physical and mental health in order. I’m definitely still working on that, but as another winter season comes to an end it’s time to get back on the saddle and get working on all my new ideas for this summer.

Similar to getting back into the gym after a long hiatus, it can be hard to get the artistic train rolling again with such a massive backlog of cool shots from the past few years. I decided to get out and shoot something simple as we started getting snow for the first time in over a month. This poor little pasque flower getting coated in snow after thinking it was safe to bloom during this early spring seemed like a great metaphor for how I feel right now…

Can I bloom yet?

A warm Winter Solstice in Telluride

I’ve been getting a bit frustrated at all the amazing sunrises and sunsets we’ve been getting the past couple weeks because of the severe lack of snow on the ground to round out a nice picture. Gator don’t play no brown grass and poopy dirt foregrounds!

However I had a dear friend reach out about commissioning a specific composition he wants printed, so I figured what better way to enjoy the solstice than to go out and test out some Orion glamor shots over the resort! It was definitely the inspirational push I needed and now I have so many ideas for compositions and time lapses once the snow finally returns 😁

Just got back home to Colorado after a quick little 48 hour trip to the Midwest to shoot another run.

I seriously can’t get enough of these guys; their music is like the puzzle piece that was designed to fit perfectly in my auditory cortex. No one makes me dance and smile so hard that my body and face are sore leaving the show.

I am forever grateful for all the new friends I’ve made, places I’ve visited, and opportunities to progress my photography career over the past 8 years of seeing this band. Almost nothing in this world makes me happier than being lost deep in an untzy groove and looking around to see all my friends, new and old, getting tf down with the biggest smiles on their faces. In these fleeting moments all the troubles in my head and the world around me completely melt away. These are the moments I live for. 🫠

Do me a favor: if you ever see Spafford playing in your neck of the woods, GO SEE THEM FOR ME!!! (and maybe invite me if I wasn’t the one to bring it to your attention in the first place.)
