Last January Jordan and I spent a week in the city of lights for our 4 year anniversary. For those of you who don’t know, we feel called to move to (in my case, back to) France to plant a church. We had been thinking Paris but Jordan had never been before, so after all…

Visitors to the MET
I recently put up all my photographs from our trip to NYC on my flickr account. Below are five of the photos I touched-up and/or modified out of twenty-six. Let me know what you think!
Read MoreNew York City!!!
It has been a few weeks since we returned from NYC but it was a really fun trip. After finals were done we headed to the twin cities and took off the next morning for New York. The balance of just finishing another semester with being somewhere on vacation is just awesome.
Read MoreState Fair Food!
Yesterday Jordan and I went to the statefair and had our share of food and free stuff. This is the food post. Below are thumbnails that link to full size pictures of everything we at at the fair. It was her first time at the fair and she loved it, and now understands why I…
Read Morevideo: rural wisconsin
With summer winding down to a close and courses starting again in a matter of weeks, Jordan and I took our last run away date for the summer. I realized I didn’t have any footage of the Wisconsin Countryside so here are your cows, corn, barns, and forests.
Read MoreLeaving France
It’s been a while since I arrived here and that means that the time to leave is rapidly approaching. Approaching so quickly, in face, that only 15 hours from now I will be on a play to Frankfurt and then back to the U.S. As of right now I really don’t know what to think.…
Read MorePhoto: Doma in a puddle at night
The last I’ll post to my blog from my trip to Florence with my parents. It was a great trip and this is one of, if not my, favorite photos. The ripples all blurred away with the time exposure that was needed to take a well lit shot. Kind of a bummer. But I really…
Read MorePhoto: Baptistry and Doma on a rainy night
There is something refreshing and cleansing about a rain that happens. That brings about this refreshing breath. I love it, and as much as I enjoy staying dry, it was nice to be out this night taking pictures. It was a new kind of adventure that I have been missing as of late here in…
Read MorePhoto: River Arno, Ponte Vecchio, and Cars at Night Time
A nice long exposure shot of the city. I have a hard time taking images like this in old europe because of the contrast between the modern in the cars, and the old in the architecture. Yet there is something beautiful about it, and it’s simplicty. A 15th century bridge, and a 21st century car…
Read MorePhoto: Merry-Go-Round in Florence
I have a soft spot for any old-school merry go round like this. With the poor weather it came out great in B/W after some minor post processing.
Read MorePhoto: Terracotta over a rain washed city
A slight manip playing with colors, BW added in post processing. The day was pretty gloomy with rain and everything was pretty gray and bleak. On a bright blue day I’m sure that is a beautiful view with the terracotta in full color against the blue. It would be beautiful. For our trip… we were…
Read MorePhoto: Florence Doma Choir
An image from the large church in Florence of the chairs lining the choir in the center of the church. Levels and Curves adujsted slightly.
Read MoreTime in Florence
A couple days ago I returned from my time in Florence, Italy with my parents. It was a lot of fun and got to see a lot of the things I had studied in my survey of art history courses. So unreal, to think that I was talking on the very street of Dante, and…
Read MorePhoto: Fishing at sunset
This shot is easily my favorite from the trip. It was our free day to spend as we liked. The majority of the conference left Nerja for the prospect of discovering something that their anxious hearts pulled them to. I stayed behind, wandering the streets of this small coastal nook on the coast of the…
Read MorePhoto: Dome of St. Peters Basillica
Jumping from the Tower in the previous post over to Rome and the Vatican City. This is a shot from inside St. Peters Basillica looking up into the vaulted dome as the sun pierces the air. To see my favorite photos (like this and the one of tower bridge) from this trip please visit the…
Read MorePhoto: Tower Bridge, London
Photo taken from the Tower of London of the Tower Bridge just as the sun was starting to set. I really like this photo of that iconic bridge.
Read MorePhoto: Cathedrale Ste. Célice
Last Saturday Tiffany and I met up with a friend in her home town of Albi, France and we saw this beautiful church. This is a great shot to capture the size and detail that went into making the whole church. It is the Cathedrale Ste. Célice if anyone cares to look up more information…
Read MorePhoto: Opera du Montpellier
We had our fall retreat last weekend in Montpellier and this is a shot from the main place there. The Opera house is at the end of the place and some resturats to the right. Simply beautiful.
Read MoreBig Break Blog!
I had the oppertunity to go down to Panama City Beach with Campus Crusade for Christ on what they called Big Break for my spring break. It was awesome. A week where there was some sun and a lot of living out my faith in Christ, God reveals himself to those who obey what he…

Our Day of Travel | 13:31 November 19, 2004 Is this really happening to me, am I really sitting on a 747 on my way over to east asia? To think that God is so large that he could send me here, when a month ago it wasn?t even something I was planning on. Being…
