Sierra Club Calendars

Originally published March 10, 2011

I have long admired the nature images found in the Sierra Club's calendars.  They publish a large, monthly wall calendar and a spiral bound, notebook sized weekly engagement calendar.  I decided quite a few years ago to make it a goal to become one of their photographers and I am ecstatic to say that goal is being realized very soon.  I found out last summer that they had chosen one of my images to be included in the 2012 Engagement Calendar, but since it was subject to final proofing, I waited to make the announcement until it cleared all the necessary hurdles and became official.

The calendar will be on sale in July.  Having sold over 8 million copies, it is easy to see why they are the most popular nature calendar published.  That is a big audience!

I have always loved photographing nature.  Here is one of my first landscape photos, taken when I was about 12 years old.

And here is a  landscape photo I took a few years ago.  Combining the skills of landscape photography with architectural work is a definite plus to creating exterior images of architecture.

The Sierra Club photo?  You'll have to pick up the calendar in July.  I'm pretty excited to see it myself.
