  • Nature Photography Around Washington

    Nature is God’s Poetry

    I love photographing nature, though with wedding and portrait shooting keeping me busy I don’t get a chance to do it as often as I’d like. It’s so peaceful to get out and just take in the world around you. The things God has placed around us are so amazing, and I overlook them nearly everyday. Today I just wanted to post a few random favorite’s.

    These are available as prints on the Signature Series Store. Most of these were taken around the Columbia basin area. Click any shot for a larger view, and enjoy… Gav

  • Moses Lake

    This is a sunset I captured on the way home from a Moses Lake session a few weeks ago. Seeing how good the sunset was, I knew I needed to stop, and I also knew a good vantage point to go get the shot from.

    This shot was taken using the HDR technique, in which I take multiple exposures are varied levels of brightness. Then in post I combine the lights and darks on all three.

  • Jacobs Senior Portraits – Lighting With Headlights

    Here’s a few shots from Jacob’s Tuesday session. There’s lots of cool ones, but these are some of my favorites. I especially like the birds in the background and the mood of this fist shot.

    These were taken near Ritzville Washington, on a bridge that spanned this pond. It was getting pretty dark and I needed something dramatic. The clouds had wasted out my dreams a stunning sunset, and I knew we had to try something fast.

    Looking around at the light, I got an idea (almost by accident) The car headlights had gone on, and cast light and shadows across their path. I decided to try something I had never done before by parking the car across the road with the lights on Jacob. After editing, and a few of my Lightroom effects I was able to get some super cool results… Gav
