I'm excited to share something brand new: Outdoor Adventure & Lifestyle Photography is officially live on my website. It's a new way for me to document the things you're already doing around Lake Tahoe and Truckee — skiing a storm day, hauling in a trophy trout, paddling out at sunrise, or anything in between — and turn it into photos and wall art you'll actually want to keep.
A Different Kind of Session
This isn't studio photography, and it isn't a posed outdoor portrait session either. For most adventures, I come right along with you — skiing next to you, riding in the boat or kayak, hiking the trail alongside — so what you get back actually looks like your adventure, not a staged version of it.
I cover a lot of ground (and water, and snow): skiing, snowboarding, boating, fishing, whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, backpacking, mountain biking, even private plane and helicopter sessions — with aerial drone photos available as an add-on through my FAA Part 107 certification. The full list of adventures I shoot is on the new page, and if yours isn't on it, ask — there's a good chance I can still make it happen.

What's Included
Every session includes a 20×30 metal print, shipped right to you, plus a set of medium-resolution digital downloads perfect for sharing on social media or your blog. Want more to hang on the wall? Additional prints in metal, acrylic, canvas, and more are available through my print shop at TruckeeTahoePhotos.com, and full-resolution digital files can be added too. Since every adventure is different, pricing is put together once I know what you have planned — there's no one-size-fits-all package.
