**THIS OFFER HAS NOW ENDED** To celebrate the launch of the new Website, for a limited time you can get one of my original, hand made, silver gelatin prints for only $75! A substantial savings off the usual price of $125 for similar, open edition prints. This one, “Levering Road – State of Bliss, 2013” is a favorite new print of mine chosen for the front page of the website for the new launch. It is also the first photograph to be released from a new project I am working on in Northern Michigan. From now through Monday, December 2nd, this print will be available at this price. After that, it will return to the regular, open edition price of $125. If you’ve been interested in getting one of these small, original prints, now is the time! As with all offers I make of these smaller prints, this is an open edition printing and comes unmatted and unframed as shown. With an image size of 4.25 inches square on an 8×10 inch sheet of paper. this hand made, silver gelatin print has a beautiful sepia/selenium split-tone. Suggestions for mounting and framing will be included with your print and, as always, […]

Just a quick entry to pass along the great news that the dedicated septic system and water lines for the workshop building have been installed! This puts us even further toward completion of the facility and far ahead of where I honestly expected we would be at this time. Of course, the dreamer in me had a full working darkroom by this winter, but the realist figured it would be at least spring before the tank and lines could be financed and installed. This puts us well on track for having the darkroom ready for the first workshop in May of 2014. This will be for the wet plate collodion process and if interested, you can find more information in the North Light Photographic Workshops site at the following link. It would be great to have you there! North Light Photographic Workshops

Getting ready for the official launch of the new site and printing the proofs of the special print offer that will accompany the announcement. You’ll recognize it as the first cover photo for the new site and the first release from a new project I am working on. Tentatively titled, “State of Bliss”, the project will encompass Bliss Township and surrounding northern Emmet County, MI where we are building the Photostock Workshop. The normal price for these small, open edition prints is $125, but through December 2nd, this print will be available for only $75. After that, it will still be available, but will revert to the other price. Although the sale will be announced soon through my newsletter, those of you so inclined can get a jump on ordering right now by heading over to The Store and look for the print offer there. Thanks for your consideration!

Welcome to the new site! If reading this close to the date of this post’s publication, you are one of the first to see this new version, so I hope you will bear with any glitches as we continue to tweak the place before the official launch. I’ve lost track of the version number on this one… Maybe 6.0? In any event, it’s been a long time coming. I’ve had a web presence since 1994 – going on 20 years now, back when a search would show less than 100 photographers online… crazy. A lot of things with my web presence were getting pretty archaic and it had been a long time since I had added anything to the site. It is time for me to get back in the program with a fully integrated approach. In addition to the galleries and this new blog, it’s exciting to have integrated a gallery store where I’ll be consistently offering a selection of prints and books as well as the special offers I’ve been putting out there for over 10 years now. Now there will be a place where collectors can order the latest offerings whenever they feel the urge, not only when I send […]

Looking at the last post made back in January of this year, it is hard to believe all that has happened in the time since. At that time I was still dreaming of a workshop facility on my Northern Michigan property and exploring ways to get it funded. Then came the Kickstarter campaign and the rest is history. Little did I know that less than six months later, I and about 75 friends and supporters would be celebrating on its porch! June 22, 2013 was the official dedication party and we made it just in time. The exterior of the building has now been completed according to the original plan and we have gone well beyond that with the interior well on its way to completion. What is more, we have already held 2 successful, sold-out workshops with even more planned for the next year! I have to say that it has changed life as we knew it around here. It has been a full time job since reaching our funding goal in less than 2 weeks. I’ll spare you all the details, but between builders, inspectors and sweat equity, it has been quite a ride. In fact, it continues and […]
