Secret Tube Land

Somewhere on the remote frozen tundra outside of a Russian gulag, three inmates make due in a frigid icy desert, using only what scraps of materials they could scrounge, in order to cling to life.  Hopefully the dog has moved on once dinner time rolls around...
Bart Patitucci, Matt Penny, Robbie Hutton, and Max. Gettin shifty on the corrugated.

Northwest Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.

Tucked near the woods on the Nooksack River in the small Western Washington town of Deming, the Northwest Wildlife Rehabilitation Center receives and treats hundreds of native wild animals every year.  Run entirely by donation, the center operates under lead rehabilitator and lone staffer Stacy Wise.  With a team of seasonal interns and volunteers year round, Wise and the people who dedicate their time and effort to the center help save the lives of native wildlife that have been injured, abandoned, are sick, or disoriented.  These images are the culmination of several months spent in and around the center. Some are releases for success stories of animal patients brought in, even some of whom were raised by Wise and the volunteers and interns, to be released as thriving adults. And some are the depiction of the sad reality of our own human influence on wildlife.

Weddings Wrap up, two down and one to go!

I got to do some of my first fall weddings this year, and was so thankful for the people I was lucky enough to work with! In case you didn't know, fall in the Northwest, is not exactly nice, or cooperative, or warm...or sunny... but anyways whining aside, I had a blast with so many people with such great attitudes that it made it a breeze (pun intended) and made for some of my favorite wedding shots I've made so far.

so thanks!
