Guiding Light – Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Cape Hatteras, Outer Banks, NC
I just returned from a much needed 10 day long trip to the Outer Banks. Tommy White and I kicked off the trip with our highly anticipated Mountains to Sea Workshops OBX Workshop with guest instructor Athena Carey. It was a blast and our group explored ancient lighthouses, dilapidated piers and marsh and dune scenes under some fantastic light. […]
Summer Nights – Charleston, SC
On a cool evening a little while back I had the great pleasure of sharing one of my favorite sunrise and night viewing locations with two new friends. We arrived late and worked our way back and forward on the long pier relishing the cool as the sun departed.
It was a special moment and […]
Photographing the Stars – Grandfather Mountain Nature Photography Weekend
Last night I had the great pleasure of talking at the Grandfather Mountain Nature Photography Weekend near Blowing Rock, NC. What an engaging group of folks we had. It was really fun to show a few of my images and talk about the process to capture them and even a little bit about processing. […]

Bulls Island and Spring in Charleston Photo Workshop
The rush of the water and the pull of the tide as a gnarled old tree still stands chest deep in the swirling Atlantic.
If you have never seen these boneyards along the coast of South Carolina and Georgia then you are missing out. This twisted speciman on Bulls Island is much more interesting in […]
Winter Workshop – Boone, NC
Is there anything better than great light and a snow covered scene. Maybe a little fog in the valley and mist all around. 🙂
The above shot was captured on the last day of the Mountains to Sea Workshops Winter Workshop in Boone North Carolina.
The entire week before I carefully watched the weather and I was psyched […]
Weekend Away – Hot Springs, NC
I just got back from a weekend away in Hot Springs near Asheville. It was my wife’s birthday and we decided a cabin in the woods with no cell phone coverage, TV’s or wifi was just what the doctor ordered. Our major entertainment was the outdoors and of course the wood stove. 🙂
While there […]
