It's not often that I have extra time these days, but every once in a while a few minutes pop up. Now, pair that with the right location and photographic fun ensues.Take these for example. I had some time to burn on a recent trip to Alaska waiting for a late-night return flight out of Anchorage where there is a publicly accessible area just past the end of the runway - similar to Gravely Point at

The colors of the year blazing into brilliant reds and oranges. The weather holding out the last vestiges of warmth.

Montana is called Big Sky country for a reason! The horizons go on forever, yet are also suddenly and forcibly broken by some of the most majestic mountains around. The azure blue can settle itself on the world below with such calm that its very breath speaks peace. Even in the depths of winter's cold, the clear, crystal air smells of warmth and hearth and home.But, when that same sky dances...It

This has been a year to remember. In some very strange ways. But, whatever the suffering, there was also strength. Whatever the discouragement, there was also hope. Whatever the darkness, there was also beauty.As we consider the many, and varied, facets of this departing year, we here at BKP are taking a look back and giving thanks for many of the amazing, beautiful, and strange moments that we

It's eight days into a 12-day trip. We've driven nearly 2,000 miles. The trees lining the straight Wyoming roads blur by as if on a infinite film strip. My mind is constantly wandering as the yellow painted passing line flicks by. Not even the drawling of the road trip playlist breaks the monotony.There's no way I'm going to do it. All I want is to sleep until the sunlight taps me on the face. No

To stretch - both mind and body.From a few miles off, it looks spectacular. And unnatural. As if

We found prairie dogs and an elk with a rack the size of a nice Christmas tree.

"Let's take some pictures," she said."Where?" I asked."Here." She said.So we moved the two ottomans, the coffee table, the side table, the recliner, and the entire couch to make room in our 700 sq. foot apartment. And, took pictures off the wall. Then, built a home photo studio - using everything from a bar stool to a six pack of TP and a punctuation book.The studio: two Profoto B2 heads on light

What an incredible year 2019 was! We here at BKP have had the chance to capture intimate moments, share encouragement and joy, and find our own history while traveling the world. We've seen families grow. We've had friends move away. And had others with whom we now share our lives. We've found loneliness. And we've found great comfort. We've found freedom. And we've found great longing. And

A cozy village in Scotland. A castle at the convergence of firths. The Isle of Skye. Castles standing and fallen. Many generations back, part of my family called Scotland home. So for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary, we went back in family history to discover our roots and celebrate our history from so long ago and from these past 40 years. It was a trip generations in making. As you know,

How amazing is it to get to watch your friends grow in hope, joy, and family! And what an honor to be asked to capture such a sweet moment. We here at BKP (all two of us) love that we get to call Matt and Kellyn friends and can't describe how wonderful it is to be able to walk alongside them as they step into this incredible adventure called parenthood.

Ok, sometimes, you just have to have fun. What's better than hanging out with animals playing. And, it's a seriously fun way to practice your photography skills. Learning to see your subject and anticipate when they will be in that perfect pose, especially when you can't direct them, is a skill any serious photographer needs. Whether you're capturing events, family portraits, or just playing

This year at BKP, we're giving our photographer a little more free reign over what he gets to shoot. You'll still see weddings and engagements. Family shots and head shots. But you'll also start seeing a little bit more of life. Plain and simple. As it unfolds. Like this businessman stepping away from a reception to check his phone. A quiet moment alone, but never alone. Brad Kehr specializes
