This image shows the beans after they have been released from the roaster while they are turned to cool evenly. The problem with shooting this image was actually how mesmerizing the movement was – I actually had to shoot this process multiple times because I kept forgetting to take enough frames as I watched the wheel turn and turn and turn over the monochromatic contents.

In a scientific world, like Jessica & Mike live in, there is still room for those things beyond our control. Snow, like love, is visible, observable, magnificent, and totally beyond our dominion. All we can do is acknowledge that it exists, and be thankful.

winter portraits with minneapolis skyline

Task: bring a noir feel to a portrait with the Minneapolis skyline. Solution: off-camera flash to create moody shadows and allow me to stop down on my camera for a darker sky and background. Also vital to this portrait – the right clients. Thanks, Tonya & Emem!

As much as I love black & white, I show mostly color images on my blog because it is hard to hide flaws in color – I want to show that I am capturing, editing, and processing images without flaws (at least, not technical ones).

However, sometimes a photo just demands monochrome, like this environmental portrait from a Erin & Paul’s lovely winter wedding in the stone basement of WA Frost in St Paul.

a) Bunky’s is a very nice restaurant with range of medditeranian food
b) Midwesterners know what actual Italian food is like, and this is not actual Italian food
c) this is a very fun way to have a night out with friends.

With that disclaimer, I present the “Spaghetti Board” from Bunky’s Cafe in Madison, WI
