Sneak Peek – Jessica’s Senior Photos

Here is a little teaser of the photos I am working on from yesterday’s Senior Photo session with Jessica.

Cocolalla Teen Camp – Photo Booth (Sandpoint Photographer)

Day 4 at Cocolalla Lake Bible Camp’s Teen Camp started out with rain.  What a perfect day for a photo booth!  Of course Cocolalla had plenty of props and I had the right equipment so we set up for some photo booth action in the gym.  This was a ton of fun and we ended up with well over 300 great photos.  Here are a few samples.

Cocolalla Teen Camp – Day 3 (Sandpoint Photographer)

Day 3 of the Cocolalla Lake Bible Camp Teen Camp was a blast!  Of course there were a lot of wet games to be played, but this time one of those games came at a price.  During what was supposed to be a harmless game of “Water Bomb Baseball” a slippery bat went flying and found a new home in the back seat of the Assistant Director’s truck.  Of course the bat forgot to open the window first!  The first photos here are a little reenactment that we did for the camera.

Now that is some brotherly love!

And now for the final photo, check out last night’s amazing sunset!

Cocolalla Teen Camp – Day 1 & 2 (Sandpoint Photographer)

One of the things I look forward to about summer is camp!  For a number of years now I have had the privilege of being involved with Cocolalla Lake Bible Camp, they do a great job and have an outstanding staff of servant hearted people that love what they do!  This week they kicked off the summer camp season with the Teen Camp.  Here are a few shots from the first couple of days of camp.

Marissa and Rhaelyn (Sandpoint Photographer)

A few days ago Marissa joked with me that the wait to see her photos was giving her an anxiety attack, a little sneak peek helped hold her over for a little while.  Now finally her wait is over, the editing is finished and the completed photos will upload tonight!  Here are a few more photos to hold her over until the morning.  You will see that she is not alone, we were also joined by her niece for a few photos as well.  If you want to see some more photos from this shoot see this link.

One more for fun.  Marissa has an interest in photography and she volunteered to help me out whenever my assistant Shea is not available.  So, I figured it would be good to give her a little job interview right on the spot.  Here is her resume, what do you think should I give her the job?

Marissa’s Sneak Peek (Sandpoint Photographer)

This last week I have been blessed with photo shoots at some beautiful locations containing fields of tall wheat stalks that were just begging to make their way into the photographs.  For this shoot with Marissa we not only had great wheat fields but some of them were filled with daisies which of course begged just as much, if not more, than the wheat stalks!   I only have a handful of photos edited from our session, but since Marissa is getting a little anxious I better give her a sneak peek, here you go!

Willie and Amanda’s Engagement

A few days ago I embarked on a mission to the beautiful home of Amanda to take some photos of her and her fiance Willie. The location was beautiful, a great spot for some fun engagement photos.  The only downside . . . the mosquitoes! I am thankful for bug spray and I am thankful for the bug zapper tool, called the clone tool and the healing brush, because I ended up having to zap hundred’s of these little buggers in Photoshop.  Enough about annoying insects and on to some photos!

Demers Family (Sandpoint Photographer)

This last weekend the Dave and Cindy celebrated as their son Eric got married.  Just days before the event I had the opportunity to take their last set of family photos before Eric set of on the adventure of starting his own family.  I am blessed to have had the opportunity to capture this moment in time for such a great and beautiful family!

Joel and Moriah’s Engagement #2

A number of weeks ago I published some photos of Joel and Moriah’s first engagement shoot,(if you missed that one you can see that post here).  One of the locations that this couple really wanted to get some photos taken was down by the beach, but due to the rain we had to reschedule that part of our shoot.  Thankfully we were able to get some acceptable weather on a day that did not conflict with our schedules.  Here are some of the photos from our second round of engagement photos.

Shea’s Senior Photos (Sandpoint Photographer)

I am very blessed to have as an assistant a High School student that loves photography.  He is a very big part of running an efficient and successful photo shoot and is often instrumental in helping me produce great quality photographs.  Yesterday he assisted me in a Senior Photo shoot, but this time not only was he my assistant, he was also the model!  Here are some of my favorite photos from our shoot.
