iPhone PHRENZY
Today thousands of peeps are waiting (camping) in front of Apple Stores in hope to get their first iPhone. I was tempted, but I decided to buy a really cool Italian bike instead. My t-Mobile contract suckered me all the way until May 5, 2008. I even considered paying the $200 penalty [...]

NEW WEB SITE!!!!
ITS DONE!!! (well almost - I just found the most easily accessible images for the galleries, and I need to put a little more thought into them), but it’s everything I wanted - widescreen cinematic, fully custom, clean, sharp, simple, not a lot of clutter, and the ability to add new photographer’s gallerys as [...]

Buena Vista Work Retreat!
Once again, Jenny and I were feeling like we needed to get out of Denver. It’s been crazy hot and congested in perfect Denver form. We love packing up our laptops and heading out to a cute little cabin in the Mountains for a few days. We got so much great work [...]

GIOS MIO (Take II), etc.
Well it’s been a rollercoaster ride since I posted GIOS MIO.
So I gets to the bank to wire money to Turin Italy for the frame and was taken aback from the exchange rate. It was HARSH. Far worse than I expected. I backed out.
I felt like a real chump and a half [...]

Ingrid & Jeff, Estes Park
Last weekend it was off to Estes Park to photograph a wedding for Ingrid and Jeff. Once again, another couple who said, “Hey Mark, we’d love for you to just do what you do best and capture our wedding with your candid approach” and they didn’t give me the kind of LONG list of [...]

It’s June 21, which means you will have the most daylight of any other day of the year. I have already blogged way too much this morning, but I feel compelled to offer one quick message of advice: I challenge everyone to do something fun this evening! You can see well all [...]

Me and my Boy / How to make a good meat-a-ball!
Jenny has been out of town these last few days, which meant that I have packed up my work and have been working from home, vs. the studio so that I could also take care of little G. I HATE working from home, I am always so much more pruductive when I have an [...]

GIOS MIO!
To follow up from my recent post on which set of wheels to go with… I was chosing between German-Made Fixie Inc. and Italian classic, Bianchi. My final decision…
…is NEITHER!
I wanted the following:
1. Classic Steel-Frame with character
2. Italian-made (of course)… but there are so many dang Bianchis around here… I wanted something [...]

Melissa & Jeff, Sanctuary Golf Course
I had the best wedding on Sat. You know, I often get hired by couples who are a little older than your typical newlyweds, who are on their 2nd marriage, etc. I LOVE these kind of clients. It’s like they know exactly what they want, they are so concerned about their guests, [...]

Like I said, I am not totally satisfied with these results, I am changing a few things this time around. Also my before photo isn’t as disgusting this time [...]

Personal Project: Big City Messengers
Nothing against weddings, I wouldn’t be shooting weddings each weekend if I didn’t love the photographic opportunities they provide. But I have been dying to take on my own personal project. I have always been intrigued by the Big City Bicycle Couriers. They are an interesting bunch and a fascinating American Subculture. [...]

New Wheels: Sporty German, or Classic Italian?
I’ve decided that it’s about time to get some new wheels. My current ride is nice, but I’m getting bored with it…. and I have saved so much money on gas savings ever since I decided to “pretend that I don’t own a car”, that I’d like to think that this is payng for [...]
