Sockeye Wildfire - Deedee Jonrowe & The Chevak Firefighters
It was a day many of us Alaskans will never forget - it started with a sunny blue summer sky & warm temperatures that promised a wonderful Sunday full of fun. But the sky soon turned hazy gray in Willow, and by the time sunset came around it was an omnious blood-red threat that had already devoured homes and the lives of beloved pets. Most of us were lucky to not lose anything in days that followed, but many - like Deedee & Mike Jonrowe - lost so much. Being the person that D
From Miss Alaska to Milk Bath to Halloween to Modern Woman - Meet Malie with 101.3 KGOT
Meet Malie Delgado - she is a radio personality at 101.3 KGOT, former Miss Alaska (Miss America Pageant system) and a fabulous model! And eventhough we photographed her entire Modern Woman / model portfolio style session & Halloween portraits session before she finally got into the milk bath (yes, we tapped it BEFORE she arrived at our Midtown Anchorage studio), she braved through the Cold - and the resulting milk bath portrait is pure amazingness! We <3 Malie #EageRiverAlask

Flour Ballerina Photo Session - "Getting Dirty for the sake of Art"
"Do it for the Art!" is a common phrase in our studio - and one that Kateri (with Alaska Dance Theater in Midtown Anchorage Alaska) fully embraces everytime she's back infront of the camera. And especially when we suggested a creative flour dance (ballet) photo session ... As we were getting ready to move out of our studio and into our (huge!) University Center Mall studio, we decide to make the moveout-cleaning a bit more interesting - as it turns out, flour goes EVERYWHERE!
A girl & a horse - outdoor photos of a beautiful relationship (Model Portfolio)
Jerryn comes from a talented Wasilla Alaska family - her brother is a model / actor featured in the movie "Fight Club", and Jerryn is well on her way of becoming famous herself. We photographed both her brother and her for their Model / Actor/Actress portfolios (both in studio and outdoors) - and here are some of the gorgeous portraits from our outdoor portrait session in Wasilla AK.
(And yes, this is her horse - and yes, I was terrified the whole time. I love horses, but
A Photographer's Creative Self-Portrait
When an idea has been kicked around for years, waiting for the perfect moment and place, then the lightning storm of a decade will not keep it from finally having it's glory day. True, there are fields in Palmer, Alaska that could have worked, but in my mind there was no room for mountains in this long-time planned self portrait. So, enter a family trip to Minnesota, a storm that shut down major highways in the state, and a crazy photographer - and this is what you get. The
