John Mark Mitchell, Photographer

Hi! My name is John Mitchell and this is my blog. If you are a client or a potential client, feel free to email me or contact me through my studio website, or click here.

Photography has been a passion of mine since I bought my first film SLR camera from a pawn shop, shortly after my 12th birthday. I went on to study Photography in school (University of Missouri, Kansas City) and be mentored by some great photographers. It is such a blessing to be able to make a living doing what I love!

This blog will mostly feature my professional life & images, I also plan on throwing in notes & images from my personal life. I'm a better photographer than I am a writer, so expect a lot more photos than words :-) Feel free to leave comments so that I can get to know you while you get to know me!

Oh yeah, if you are a professional photographer and would like to connect, please email me as well!

You may have noticed that I've been a little absent lately -- well, here's why: my wife and I just gave birth to our first child! Interweb, meet our little girl Mallory

Katie and I got to be there when our best friends gave birth to their baby girl! University of Washington Medical Center.

Okay, this is going to be a little different than most of my posts. Tonight I had the unthinkable occur -- I went to open up my lightroom library to export some images and my entire drive had been corrupted. I tried several image editing tools to try restoring the data but none of them worked! The drive was a 500gb disk that was almost full! There one day, gone the next -- a full year (2007) of work!

Fortunately, I put a backup strategy in place a long time ago and had 3 copies of the data stored in different locations so my data was safe :-)

I'm posting this for two reasons. The most important: to remind you to take some time today to backup your important files! Second: to assure my clients that your files are safe with me! My backup plan is pretty solid and unless there is some kind of a disaster that takes out the West Coast, we're covered.

If you are looking for a good backup solution, let me know and I can send some resources.

I'll buy you a Jamba Juice. Or coffee, but I really like Jamba.
