We had an awesome weekend this weekend. It was NSOPgiving which is a fall party we throw at our house for all the local forum members to come have a great time. We also go out as a group (whoever is in town) for a sunrise or two. This trip we had Shawn Thompson from […]

Had a little party for the forum at the house this weekend. What a blast! We ended up with 25 adults and 15 kids in the end and everyone had a great time. It’s always a blast to catch up with old friends and meet some new ones. It’s also crazy meeting someone in real […]

Went out to Point Judith Saturday to shoot the sunrise. The weather man said “windy” but didn’t mention 30~40kts… It was so windy even with me leaning on my tripod I couldn’t keep the camera still (none of these are critically sharp). It was still fun shooting but challenging.

Another week in the books. Not much to report since our trips to Ikea. We got Elias bed and swing together and he LOVES them. We returned the table we picked up for the same one in black (instead of birch which was too light) and the next size down. This weekend was spent getting […]

Made it out to ledge road again last week. I tried to shoot there Saturday am, but I left the house w/o a raincoat (it wasn’t raining at the time) and drove down there only for it to start pouring as soon as I crossed the Newport Bridge. So I went back Sunday as I […]

You bet! It was a gorgeous weekend with highs in the 80s so we took the chance to get out to Block Island this weekend. We made the 5:15pm ferry Friday night and had a great 1.5 days out there returning Sunday AM in time for a brunch party at the Plumbs. We made it […]

Nikki’s Mom’s Mom Vovo turned 100 Monday! The family threw a huge party for her Sunday which was a ton of fun. It was crazy having the entire family and all her friends together in one place again, it was like a wedding reception! Beyond Vovo turning 100, Isabella managed to get bronchitis. The machine you […]

OK, to be 100% honest, I’m writing this post having already sold the camera. I bought this camera 10/4/2011, here’s the first shot I took with it: I owned the camera from October 4th until November 2nd. I took 797 images with it. I loved the camera and I hated the camera. I, like everyone […]

I’m trying not to let the personal blog posts get too behind here either, so I’m adding the last weeks update now, even though it’s less than a week from the last update. Anyway, I found some shots on my NEX after hiking with it this weekend from a day I got to get out […]

Went to Mount Washington this weekend. I’m working on a project with some friends for PBS right now, so we hiked Tuckerman’s. We also had enough time to go all the way to the top for my first time ever. It was a great day for it, ~70º at the bottom and ~50º at the […]

Made it down to Trustom Pond for the sunrise this past weekend. My parents used to live less than 10 minutes from there when I was in college, so I knew the area had (has) potential, but I hadn’t been in a while. I ended up waking up about an hour late (5:24am when I […]

Well it’s been a long week and a half since my last update. Sorry about the delay, but I’ve been quite busy with photography work taking my processing time away from personal projects. This is a good thing though. Not a whole lot to report this week. Isabella is now eating and “demanding” food (if […]

Shot the new Newport Federal credit union in Portsmouth last week. It’s a very nice property. I’d driven by as they were building it, so it was fun to be able to get inside and see what it looked liked. It was also 49º the morning of the shoot which was a nice surprise for […]

I got the opportunity to do some product shots for Mike Behan and his project Njabini Apparel. Their website is a work in progress right now, so be sure to head on over to their facebook page and check them out. These are some amazing items and you really need to read the story about […]

The thinktankphoto speed series is an interesting line of bags. They’re belt bags, they’re shoulder bags, and they’re a combination of both. ThinkTank uses a nice soft webbing loop to attach the shoulder strap to, so it’s easily removable. They also include belt straps that tuck neatly away into the side of the bag. So […]
