We managed to have a great time in Iceland even though the weather did not cooperate. There was fog and rain and wind, probably the tail end of a storm that hit the East Coast a couple weeks ago. But we made the most of it, heading into the interior in Iurie’s intrepid bus, where Read more...

As you may have heard there has been a record salmon run in Bristol Bay this year. In Katmai there are always a lot of bears and salmon, but this year the numbers were off the charts! Though I haven’t been in many years because of the crowds, we made the effort to go to Read more...

Its been a warm and dry summer here in the Pacific northwest. Until this past week, we hadnt seen a drop of rain in the city most famous for it in nearly two months, and more often than not the temperatures have been in the upper 80s and low 90s. Ive been fortunate to get Read more...

Is print dead? Definitely not! Call me old school but nothing beats a photo in print. There is simply no substitute for bringing an image captured out of the digital realm and back into a tangible, tactile element on your wall or bookshelf. Recently I had the pleasure of working with Tomasz Trzebiatowski who founded Read more...

Short but sweet today, as our group arrives at the lodge up here in Katmai, Alaska. I missed out on visiting last summer, so Im excited to see how things have changed in the past couple of years. My visits to this region have been so frequent that Ive grown to recognize individual bears over Read more...

Im in the midst of going through all my photos from several recent workshops  all back to back, so my editing time has been limited! I did pull a few of my favorite shots from Oregons Lost Lake, looking out to Mt. Hood  the tallest mountain in the state, and also a dormant Read more...

I took a hiatus from visiting Katmai last year; not necessarily as a consequence of the pandemic, but due to some other trips that I had to fit into my calendar. Im as excited as ever to return this salmon season to check on on the bears Ive observed on a regular basis for years Read more...

Social engineering scams are one of the hazards of the internet. It seems a scammer has been using my name in a modeling scam. I can say unequivocally that I am NOT doing model shoots for Adidas or any other apparel company, especially those based in Russia. If you see or receive a phishing email Read more...

While Im always adding new workshop location destinations to my list, its inevitable that I end up photographing in many of the same locations time and time again. Part of the draw of an Art Wolfe workshop  especially here in the Pacific Northwest   is the expertise we have on these locations. So how Read more...

Recently vaccinated and ready to get out? We are coming up on the final stretch of West Coast workshops, with limited space left to join me at several haunts up and down the shores of the Pacific.

Not every image needs be tack sharp to succeed. In the good old days of film ISO 100 was considered fast and on the margins of the day with every increasing exposure times you had no choice but to pan with your subjects as they moved. Today were getting spoiled with digital cameras that yield Read more...
