New work

It's been a while since I've posted anything on this blog, so I thought I'd share some new work with the MSU crowd. Take a look and, if you feel so inclined, let me know what you think.

Love the Holga

© Katie Lykins

My younger sister, Katie, is my assistant at all the weddings I am shooting this summer. Her assignment= carry my stuff, do what I tell her, and shoot 1 roll on the Holga per wedding. She's quite the artist. This is my favorite shot so far.

Foggy day at work and a night in town

some photos from the Jersey Shore, I'm pretty sure one of the girls in the bottom image is snooki

Hauser Dam

A few images from the Hauser Dam trip during the summer landscape class.

Getting Published

I was recently informed that this image will appear in next months Climbing Magazine as the photo of the month. If you get a chance, check it out.

How I spent my weekend

after a hard day of work on Saturday, I drove to Hamilton, MT to climb the Flathead Buttress. This is one of the better images i was able to get. This is about 300 feet up the 1200 foot wall.

Paul from Wilsall

I went snowboarding yesterday on Sacajawea and when i came down this gentlemen was getting drunk before his drive home back to Wilsall. Paul is an old Military Pilot who is currently writing a book on his flying days from 67 to 92.

Nice work Kimbre!!

Wedding Photographers

Hey all you fellow wedding photographers! It's that season again, and please, for the sake of all humanity, please don't do what this photographer did. Happy Summer!

Flathead Lake 6-29-10 5D Mark II Last night there was a really awesome electrical storm, the first two images were right before the storm and the last was during. Each exposure is between 6 and 32 seconds.

Better Scanning Trays

After reading about Jackson's success last year with the "Better Scanning" trays, I had to give it a shot. I just completed a whole bunch of tests and this is what I have gathered. The top image is a 100 percent crop @ 2400 DPI with the standard Epson 4x5 plastic trays that come with the V-750. The bottom is also a 100 percent crop @2400 DPI with the Better Scanning 4x5 tray. The difference in quality can easily be seen. The Better Scanning 4x5 tray is a little different than their medium and smaller format trays, in that you can either wet or dry mount the sheet to the glass. I opted for the anti-newton ring glass so I could dry mount (faster and easier) or have the option of wet mounting. What really made the difference was a matter of .2mm.

Warped Tour

I'm on The Van's Warped Tour all Summer. I'm updating my Tumblr page daily with photos and blogs about the tour, so if you'd like to follow along here's the link

The photo above is Tyson Ritter of The All American Rejects performing yesterday in Mountain View, CA.

Cape Town Gallery

The Cape Town Gallery is Live on the Website. Check it out. This is what winter in South Africa looks like!!!

Outside Bozeman Photo Contest

The 3rd annual Outside Bozeman Photo Contest deadline is coming up. I encourage you all to take a few moments and submit some of your best outdoor photographs from around the area. Winning images will be featured in the Fall 2010 issue of Outside Bozeman Magazine. Good Luck!

Street Vendors

Here is a quick unedited scan of a portrait I made about a week ago in Union Square. It is for my street vendor series, in which the USP grant is supporting. This guy was ridiculous. He was rehearsing to me a very fictional and confusing story about "Sausage Head" (the book he is holding). He was very anxious to leave and I literally set up the tripod, leveled the camera, focused, put the film in and pulled the darkslide in under 2 minutes flat. Everyone moves so fast in the city, I still do not know where 95 percent are going. I am also pretty sure cab drivers are like hermit crabs, once one car dies they crawl into the next and drive away.

Substream Music Press Cover

I shot Hey Monday with Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman for the cover of Substream Music Press. Just released!
