Another successful year of commercial photography with great clients and the opportunity photograph some amazing homes.

A Late Winter Shoot on the South End

This was a late winter shoot and those are always a challenge in the San Juan Islands. But this was a lovely South End Lopez Island Home on Mud Bay that belong to some friends of mine, so it was all good.

A Very Eclectic Cabin on Lopez Sound

I have a love for small, quirky homes so this little cabin was right down my alley. We got a great break in the weather and this sweet home was a blast to shoot. Stunning location on Lopez Sound with views to Decatur Island and Center Island.

Views of Both Swift and Shoal Bay

Located on the spit that leads into Humphrey Head, this property has stunning views of Swifts Bay, Shoal Bay, Upright Head, Spencer's Landing Marina and of course, the occasional Washington State Ferry making its way from Anacortes to the San Juan Islands.

A South End Cabin Tucked in the Woods

I never quite know what I'm in for when I head out for a job and the description of an "all wood cabin in woods" often makes for a tough shoot. But this little home was quite a nice surprise. It was well done and simply furnish with nice nice ambient light. A touch of fill light to bring up the shadows and it just popped.

A Beautiful, Minimalist Home & Guest House with a Stunning Garden

As soon as I pulled up to the house, I knew that Christmas had come early for me. A sweet little cottage with a guest house and a beautiful garden. My only complaint was that I didn't get to spend days shooting and exploring this gem. Situated in a quiet Lopez Island "neighborhood" with views to Mt Baker, this is a place I could easily call home.

Perched on the Cliffs of Davis Head

An amazing Davis Head home with close up views of Charles Island, Long Island, Mummy Rocks and Whale Rocks. And in the distance, the Olympic Mountains.

Lopez Farm Cottages and Tent Camping

This was a very enjoyable, multi-day, Advertising Photography shoot for the Lopez Farm Cottages on the north end of Lopez Island. Each of these little cabins were darling and amazingly photogenic. I shot way more images than the client needed but I just couldn't stop.

A Small, Simple Home Perched on a Hill Overlooking Richardson

There's no shortage of amazing view homes on Lopez Island, but the view from this little house perch on a hill overlooking Richardson and the Olympic Mountains is just stunning.

A Well Done Manufactured Home on Upright Head

This was an unusually nice manufactured home on Upright Head with views across Upright Channel to Shaw Island.

Lopez Sound View Home

Sunrise and twilight shoots for east side Lopez Island homes during the summer are a very early morning affair. But once up, they are so worth it. Another glorious Lopez Sound View home overlooking Center Island and Decatur Island.

An Architecturally Designed Home On Hunter Bay

This was another home owned by friends and designed by Greene Partners Architects on Lopez Island. A lovely Northwest themed home with plenty of wood and exquisite details.
