The Family

I am a husband, dog lover, and wanna be photographer living in Portland Oregon with my wife, daughter Savannah, and two pugs Joey and Ella-Louise. I’m also a mac enthusiast, working on a bachelors degree in finance.

My first real “job” was working as a project manager for a technology start-up. Since then I have spent the last seven years in the banking/finance industry and have moved more than 20 times over the last ten years.

I met my wife in late 2003 on an online dating site after joining under pressure from my friend (and then roommate) who suggested I give online dating a try. The rest is history.

“I promised her and adventure; so far, so good.”

My wife and I were married in July of 2006. In the short time that we’ve been married, we have lived in Washington, Oregon, and Texas. At the moment, we’re stuck in Oregon. We’re thinking about moving to the Dallas/Fort Worth area later this year. Of course, this changes daily. Austin and San Antonio would be nice as well.

This website was officially established in late October of 2000. All photos taken after 2005, were captured in the RAW format and post processed in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CS2. Some were done in Aperture 2.0, we just won’t talk about those.
