Recently we traveled to Bismarck, North Dakota to shoot a portrait of the president of the only state owned bank in the United States. Making a portrait of a banker probably isn’t high on a lot of people’s list of exciting things to shoot, but Jenn and I were excited about this shoot as it took us to a state we’re completely fascinated with. Our subject, Eric, was easy to work with which always makes our job a joy. We had plenty to talk about including the Vikings and his daughter’s interest in photography.
As I kid I would travel with my parents and sister to make the long trek across the endless landscape to visit our relatives on the North Dakota/Montana border. The drive seemed to go on forever but it’s stuck with me all these years and it was nice to return and explore beyond the interstate after the assignment for a new project we’ve started. More on that in a future post.

Tim – Mom and Dad (Bob and Connie) were just visiting your parents and I learned of your huge success in both a)finding a lovely wife who loves to do what you do (awesome) and b) pursuing a passion (photography).
You really should come visit again sometime. The trip isn’t as long when you are a grown up. Thanks for the shout out about your trips. We are all super proud of you!
Thanks Robin! My mom mentioned them stopping by. I’m not sure if we’ll make it towards Bowman the next time we’re in ND for our project but at some point I’m sure we will and when we do we’ll be sure to stop by!
