December 2011Did a photoshoot for the Purrfect Pals Shelter headquarters located in Arlington, WA. Photos were used for their annual holiday cards. These cards are sold online and in local stores throughout Washington, to raise funds for the animals.
October 2011Designed and developed a simple web site for Cibola, an independent retail store. Original product photography and advertising copy were all provided. This site is built using Wordpress and is meant to be self maintained with an easy to navigate CMS.
September 2011Completed two business card designs. One for a new client Ray Couture, who received a fresh update on his business Identity.

May–August 2010Participant in the 3rd Thursday Art Walk festivities held on Mercer Island. The Mercer Island Reporter ran a front page article with a photo on Wednesday, August 18th to promote my work in the paper and online. A Discovery Park beach landscape received a lot of exposure. I sold three framed peices and a select number of fine art cards.
June 2010A fine art submission wins Honorable Mention at the annual photography show held by Art/Not Terminal Gallery. This was my first juried show and I ended up winning something, wow- how great is that?

February 2010Pet portraiture photoshoot for Whiskers At Home, an independent pet sitting business in Bellevue, WA. That was so much fun! Check out some of the photos by viewing whiskersathome.com
2009The past year has been a time for building new skills and revisiting old ones. I forged new client relationships with several local small business owners. Identity and branding systems were designed; resulting in customized business cards, logo graphics and marketing collateral. Over the summer and fall I shot a series of northwest landscape photographs. Out of these, a select number were printed on fine art greeting cards. They turned out great, so this line is expected to grow as the collection expands. Each week I also continue to shoot portraits of rescued cats in support of the animal shelter, Purrfect Pals.
