2024 Workshops
2024 was a great year! A big thanks to everyone that attended my workshops.
NEW WORKSHOP Central Oregon Workshop date: December 9 - 11, 2024
2025 Workshops
NEW FORMAT FOR 2025 For a successful Milky Way workshop the skies must be clear of clouds and smoke. To provide the best chance of clear skies, all workshops are being scheduling on multiple dates. There will be a primary date for each workshop, but you will be registering for all the dates listed. This new format requires flexibility on your part as the final date for the workshop will be determined 4 to 7 days prior to the first date listed for the workshop when sky forecasts become available.
Here are my workshops for 2025! Most of my workshops sold out in 2024. Register soon for 2025!

Photography judging

On May 15th I was chosen as the photography judge for The Sociary of Washington Artists Spring Art Show. It was a lot of fun and very challenging at the same time.

On June 17th I was chosen as the photography judge for the Vancouver Arts and Music Festival. I'm looking forward to another round of judging amazing photographs.

Tony Kuyper beta tester

Late 2023 I started working with Tony Kuyper Photography as a beta tester for his TK Photoshop plugin (currently TK9).

Northwest Aperture is a photography consortium I co-founded with Eric Wilson and Adam Blank (two amazing local photographers).
