My dream photo assignment is a small town powwow. Luckily, I’ll be covering six of them in Northeast Montana this year.

I shot all our photo spreads during a one month contract in St. Louis, Mo., with the Northsider newspaper. I love taking pictures of people.

Many of my closest friends and colleagues are photographers. As an editor, I like to cultivate local talent with an eye for candid portraiture and correct name spellings.
