Meet John!

Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, I specialize in Wedding & Portrait photography. My photography seeks to express emotion. I wake up each day and adhere to a strict diet of eating, drinking, and sleeping photography. I love nothing more than to capture two people in love. My camera allows me to captures moments that may go otherwise unnoticed. I’m not your “stand there while I count 1,2,3…Cheese” type of photographer. My past clients would tell you it’s likely you will see me shooting from trees, hanging off boat docks, laying on my stomach in sub-zero temperature, or standing over the edge of a bridge. I do whatever it takes to “get the shot”. I love shooting people and can honestly say “I’m livin’ the dream”.

I live with my amazing wife Emily, my daughter Eliza, and my sweet dog Zoe. When I'm not carrying my camera around, I enjoy cycling, rollerblading, and listening to live music. Trying out unique food (Thai, Indian, Turkish, Russian, etc.) makes me happy!

Watch Her Grow – Part 2

24 November 2010 Personal

This past week, I took Emily out for another maternity shoot. I wanted to mix things up this time around by shooting the session on film. I have been so giddy all week waiting to see these photos and I’m just in love with what we got. For anyone wondering, these were shot on my Contax RTS II with a Zeiss 50mm lens using Fuji Professional 400h film. We even had to get the tripod out and try out the timer on my camera. I’ll say it again…I’m just loving these photos straight out of camera!!!

In case you would like to see the first installment of Em’s maternity photos, here is Watch Her Grow – Part 1
