Earlier this year I got the great privilege to photograph the Arizona Capitol building’s dome! The state had just replaced the original copper plating so it was very shiny, like a new penny!

The intent was to do something […]

Once again on Saturday I had the honor to photograph The Downtown Chamber Series performing at the Ice House.
