Kahala Wedding
Polina and Scott at a Kahala estate. The story of their wedding license application was featured in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser HERE. I submitted a few shots and the one below was used on the front section jump. Shot with a Nikon D3 and a Nikkor 50mm f/2 H.C converted to Ai. I’ve surfed for years […]

The Standard Lens
Lenny and Jill walk together into the light at the Lodge at Koele, on the island of Lanai. Amazing what a 50mm can do. The 50mm lens used to be the standard lens that was sold with any SLR camera. For the last decade, most cameras are sold with a ‘do-it-all zoom lens’ and the […]

Trippy
Hey Howdy Partners, just back from the deep West South-West where I attended my sisters’ commitment ceremony to her partner Becky, both shown here doing a lovely spin on the dance floor. It was Country-Western night for the ladies bachelorette party (does that even make sense?) and it was great fun. I learned a lot […]

Breathless
Kind of leaves you breathless… Shot with my Baby Graphic, fitted with a 6×6 camera back and a Carl Zeiss Jena 105mm f/4.5 Tessar, on Ilford Pan-F+ processed in a very obscure AGFA-Geavert developer V-222.

Dynamic Range
There are some shots where the dynamic range of traditional black and white materials just seems make hard shooting situations easier. I’m certain that those of you who only practice digital would look at this shooting situation and think much different thoughts than I did. Shot with a Nikon F4s and a Nikkor 20mm lens, […]

Twirl
Lin twirls Lisa, on the beach at Hanalei Bay, Kauai. This was shot in the dark, literally. The sunset light had faded after the ceremony and portrait session of Lisa and Lin’s wedding at the St. Regis Princeville in Hanalei, Kauai, and Lin spun Lisa. I shot this with a Leica M4 (pretty sure the […]

Everybody Loves John Hook
John Hook is like Hansel, He’s So Hot Right Now. So Natalie and I were on our way to check out Art and Flea at Fresh Cafe, and we parked a suitably good distance away from the festivities (an old photojournalist trick, makes for a clean and fast getaway if needed). A small rain shower […]
