I’ve put the camera down for a few minutes and jumped back on the decks to bring you an all-new mix to help power you through the week! Check it out below and if you want to see me play LIVE come to Beacon Denver this Saturday 5/17 from 11pm-12am! Enjoy! šŸŽ§

Well this is a different post than normal—but in addition to amateur photographer, I’m also a DJ for my Burning Man camp and am playing an all-new set this Saturday 5/17 at Beacon Denver from 11pm-12am. If you’re in Denver come out and say hi and shake that booty with me!

Is it Monday again already? Get yourself cleaned up from the weekend like this robin (before I rudely interrupted its bath) and hit the ground running this week! #Photography #Birding #BirdBath #Canon #CanonPhotography #Wildlife šŸ›

Happy Saturday! Take a bow that you made it through to the weekend, folks! Check out this American Avocet I captured this past week wading for food in Kuntze Lake. #Birding #Photography #Wildlife #Canon #CanonPhotographer

It’s Bear Fight Friday! I wasn’t sure if I’d post this shot—shooting through thick plexiglass rarely ever results in good images, but I love the contrast of the bears play-fighting in the pool vs the kid’s hand. #Photography #Canon #CanonPhotography #Animals #ZooPhotography

Peacock-a-boo! It’s Thursday and we can almost see the weekend! Keep going and you’ll be shaking those tail feathers on Saturday in no time! #Photography #ZooPhotography #Birds #Birding #Canon #CanonPhotography

Happy Tuesday! Check out this weird horse that got its neck stuck in a taffy puller (kidding); it’s one of the amazing giraffes at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo—the tallest living terrestrial animal on Earth! #Photography #ZooPhotography #Canon #CanonPhotography #Giraffes

Ever feel like someone is staring at you? Well this fine tiger’s name is Chewy and if he’s staring at you like this—you in danger, girl! #CheyenneMountainZoo #Photography #Canon #CanonPhotography #Tigers

It’s Monday, folks. Wipe the sleep from your eyes and hit the day running—or if you’re this Red Panda—stay curled up like your own little pillow! So cute! #Photography #ZooPhotography #Canon #CanonPhotography

While I normally don’t like zoos and believe animals should be seen only in the wild—the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo is one of the better ones I’ve been to. Plus this guy is insanely beautiful and I’m grateful I got to take his picture. #Photography #animals #Canon #CanonPhotography #ZooPhotography

So I went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo yesterday with amazing friends and was so caught up having fun with them I didn’t realize I had not set up my camera correctly and was shooting in a crop mode with reduced resolution all day. I kept wondering why the lenses seemed closer than normal. Whoops. 😬

Have I mentioned that Colorado sunsets really are šŸ”„? I mean, come ONNNNN….. #Photography #Sunsets #Canon #CanonPhotography #SkyFire

Happy Feathered Friday! The M-F week is nearly done and we’re about to take off to the weekend like this beautiful Say’s Phoebe! So excited to go to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo tomorrow with friends. Hope to have a ton of new images next week to share! #Photography #Birding #Canon #CanonPhotography

Switching it up from birds to muskrats! I was hoping to spot a beaver so I’d be able to use alliteration but alas it wasn’t to be-(ver). I’ll see myself out now. #Photography #wildlife #Canon #CanonPhotography #Animals

The odds a baby great horned owl will kill you are pretty low. Unless you’re a small rodent or me trying to get a photo closer than it wants me to. #Photography #Birding #Owls #Canon #CanonPhotography #NatureIsWild

Y’all probably see these images and think I’m making it all up since I’m posting so prolifically. Trust me, I’m shooting all these images myself on my walks with the dog. I’m surprising myself just how many images I’m getting. (And so is my Lightroom account…)

This baby Great Horned Owl tried hiding in amongst the trees after one of its very first flights out of the nest last night. Incredible experience to watch. #Photography #Birding #Nature #Owls #Canon #CanonPhotography

Ever seen a great horned owl look at you like your parents did when you got caught sneaking out of the house? Well, now you have. #Photography #Birding #Owls #Nature #Canon #CanonPhotography šŸ¦‰

Just a little further up Bear Creek, I spotted this Black-crowned Night Heron who looks to be in need of a good bathing! #Photography #Birding #Nature #Canon #Canonphotography

Last night’s walk with sega (my dog) was extraordinary for spotting wildlife—not to mention in gorgeous lighting too! Here’s a Northern Flicker to start the parade of animals I saw! #Photography #Birding #Nature #Canon #CanonPhotography

Last night the colors of the sunset were just incredible. Captured this quick shot and love how it came out. #Photography #Birding #Sunsets #Canon #CanonPhotography #Nature

I used my new lens yesterday for the first time properly on a hike and can’t wait to see the final shots I captured. I’m hoping I don’t disappoint anyone! Haha

It’s a rainy day here in Denver and I’m sure this duck is loving the moisture! Apparently others wanted to get in on the photo-shoot action as there’s a few mosquitos in the background trying to steal the attention! #Photography #Birds #Birdphotography #Canon #CanonPhotography

I was so fortunate last night to not only see a Cooper’s Hawk, but maybe more surprisingly this baby owl (look at all that fluff!) stretching its wings after climbing precariously out of its nest! The light was super low—so forgive the poor quality! #Photography #Birds #Canon #CanonPhotography

While out for a walk with sega I noticed small tufts of fluff and feathers floating through the woods. Decided to follow them and found this Cooper’s Hawk having a dinner of another unlucky bird. #Photography #Birding #Canon #CanonPhotography #Birdsofprey #Nature

I hope your Wednesday is as filled with as much attitude as this lil guy. He sat immovable in the sunset light until sega was mere inches from his face—brave! #Photography #Nature #Canon #CanonPhotography #Bunny #BabyBunny

Caught this beautiful as it perched near me yesterday to do a quick preen. I can tell the new lens is going to work like magic—so sharp! Can’t wait to see what else I can capture. šŸ“ø: Canon R6M2 & Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM #Photography #Birds #Birding #Canon #CanonPhotography

So I am welcoming a new member of my photography equipment family this weekend. …and saying GOODBYE to a bunch of $ in my bank account. Someone should shut off my credit cards. #SpendingSpree #Photography #Canon #CanonLLens #CanonPhotography

Happy Saturday, y’all! The weekend is warming up and the chilly snap is behind us. Made for some beautiful moments though like this lilac bush with snow and ice melting. šŸ“ø:Canon R6 Mark II & Canon RF 70-00mm F/2.8 L IS USM Z #Photography #Flowers #Canon #CanonPhotography

Happy Friday! It’s snowing here today so I’m posting a shot taken in sunnier weather earlier this week of this Double-crested Cormorant gathering materials for its nest while dipping its feet in the lake. Now it’s off to fly into the weekend! #Photography #Birds #canon #CanonPhotography #Nature

Are we still doing #TBT? Cause this one’s from last year—my trip to San Francisco to DJ at my Burning Man Camp’s fundraiser. Hitched a ride in a Waymo and visited Marshall’s Beach to take this shot. šŸ“ø:Canon R6Mark2 & RF 24-105mm F/4 L IS USM #Photography #Travel #Canon #CanonPhotography

Whooo boy it’s been a day! In honor of my allergies here’s a photo of some crabapple blossoms I took this week (before the snow arrives to knock them all off) to cheer your day! #Photography #Spring #Blossoms #Canon #CanonPhotography 🤧🌸

The last few shots for this #WildlifeWednesday are of this amazing Great Horned Owl I spotted walking Sega the other night. These were shot in near total darkness so I’m amazed they came out. #photography #Wildlife #Birds #Birdphotography #canon #CanonPhotography #owls šŸ¦‰

Just wanna *boop* this squirrel! šŸæļø #WildlifeWednesday #Wildlife #Squirrels #Photography #Canon #CanonPhotography #Wildlifephotography

It’s #WildlifeWednesday so here’s a photo of a double crested cormorant watching the sunset to start your day! Stay tuned for more wild animals coming up! #photography #Wildlife #Birds #Birding #Canon #CanonPhotography

A swirl of blossoms in sunset light #photography #Sunsets #Nature #Canon #CanonPhotography #Blossoms #Spring 🌸

Great Blue Heron taking a nap on a fallen tree at Bear Creek Greenbelt in Lakewood, CO. I’m amazed by this—I have difficulty just not rolling off my couch when I nap much less doing it on one leg in middle of a pond! #Photography #Birds #Birdphotography #Canon #CanonPhotography #Nature

What I think I look like coming into work on a Monday vs how I actually look. This is the same goose though—and same landing sooooo #MondayProblems #Photography #Nature #Birds #BirdPhotography #Canon #CanonPhotography
