It’s been awhile! My design work has been quieter this summer, keeping busy with my roles at Oak and now Miller’s too. I have some book projects brewing for fall that I’m excited about. It’s been a fast moving summer, filled with lots of opportunities to work on photography. Many with my growing boys, and their many critters: fish, frogs, caterpillars and butterflies. (a post to come). Here are some recent shots from a short hiking trip “Out West.” I will always have a heart for landscapes!


This is Lost Cabin Lake. It is one of my favorite places in the world. A hidden lake in Montana’s Tobacco Root Mountains, you can get here only on your own two feet, on a horse, or as I learned with amazement this trip: on two wheels (mountain bikes!) This photo is my favorite view of the lake, taken in the morning as the light began to move across the water. Our campsite was in the trees on the right side edge of the photo.


A view from the slope behind the lake. The hike to Lost Cabin brings you 5 miles through the trees and valley in the distance. Numerous high peaks (10,000 feet+) guard the lake on its remaining sides.


An evening storm rolling across the North Boulder River Valley. This was only rain we saw, making it my first backpacking trip that I didn’t even put my rain jacket on. What a treat! Many more photos to sort through, but at a quick glance, these were my favorites.
