I had the pleasure of working with Realtor Gene Smith and homeowner Sharon Sprott last week, shooting the Sprott’s amazing listing north of Greenacres. This home on 10 acres is like a private nature retreat! Miles of trails with views of Mt. Spokane and Newman Lake– this home is for the serious outdoor aficionado.
Broken Lance Road in the Quinimose development has a spectacular view of both Saltese Flats (Saltese Uplands Conservation Area) and Mica Peak. I had the chance to shoot a home there for Mary Moulton recently, here are a few of the shots showing the view and the nice interior– (23409 Broken Lance, Liberty Lake, WA)
LaunchPad at Main & Stevens, downtown Spokane, has a cool event space hidden in the basement! There are couches & love seats, some bistro-style tables and a couple chairs at the bar. It’s a perfect location for a private birthday party, retirement party or casual get-together. There is a foosball table and ping-pong table for …
One of the difficult aspects of Commercial Photography is the drudgery of “self-assigned” photo shoots. Every now and then a photographer needs some fresh ideas or new challenges. So we think of a place or situation outside of our everyday experience and go there to suffer for out art. A photographic hairshirt, if you will. …

Pinterest may soon have a brand value that exceeds …
There are many ways to tackle special images in photography. As always, though, the problem is Light. And creating dramatic evening shots of property or buildings can be tricky. You actually need light from various stages of the fading day to compose the scene. In the scene shown here I captured the home repeatedly over …
Had the chance to shoot a very nice listing recently with Pam Frederick– 5715 E. 21ST AVE, SPOKANE, WA and in the process, the owner’s dog wandered nearby, curious what we were up to. So finally we had him sit down for a quick portrait while framing one of our last shots. Just a casual …
Here’s an idea for those of you looking for a new way to express yourself– a couple weeks ago I went around downtown with Doyle Wheeler of KinetekMedia looking for interesting backdrops to convert to High Dynamic Range, or “HDR”. We used both wide angle and tight, zoomed in perspectives. This particular shot seemed nice …
