Went out with the forum guys on Saturday AM. We were treated to a great sunrise and low tide which gave us some great shooting options. I love the exposed rocks and weeds thanks to the tide. The full moon was also out which added a nice bonus before the sun came up.

“Listen to me Daddy, Mommy told you not to eat pizza!”… That’s his longest sentence yet, not sure what it means because we were eating pizza for dinner….. But that’s a lot of words strung together that made sense. It’s been a hectic week with work and grandmothers covering the first 3 days of Elias’ […]

Got to go down to the pub today to grab some shots of the Banquet room in use. It’s a great space with tons of natural light. The food and setup looks amazing and of course, they fed me! Click here to download the images.

Went out before the rain this morning for another landscape at Sachuest. Unfortunately I slept through the watch alarm and ended up being ~15 minutes late, and wouldn’t you know it, as I was walking in the path to an amazing sunrise, it faded before I was even 100′ from the car and left me […]

Yeah Sure? That’s Elias’ new saying for yes. He’s been using Oh Kay for a while now which was cute, but today he started with Yeah Sure! which brings it to another level of cuteness! This weekend was a pretty good weekend. Saturday was gorgeous and Elias and I got a nice long walk on […]

I’m a bag whore. I admit it. I’m always looking for a better bag solution for my use and I really like the idea of slings. So I’ve been looking for a sling that I think will work for me and I had it narrowed down to two options, the new lowepro classified series (180 […]

I put this video together very quickly today just to show why L-Brackets are so nice. Yes, they’re expensive, and I know a lot of people wonder what the fuss is about and why you’d want to spend that much money for a clamp and bracket… But I can say it’s one of the few […]

I got lucky this week! I didn’t want to wake up and almost fell back to sleep. Fortunately I did get up and made it down to Narragansett… As I drove down there was some color in the sky, and it was looking OK, but all of a sudden, AFTER I was setup, the sun […]

I finally picked up an old school MF only, manual exposure body! A friend found this at a yardsale and actually traded me for a NSOP strap (actually two). It’s perfect because I have the OM to EOS adapter and the 50mm 1.4 already so I can use the new 24mm 2.8 on the 5Dii […]

I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now, but watch the above video, it should clear up any questions anyone has on how to use filters with lenses that “can’t” take filters. But that I mean wide lenses w/o proper threads for filters on the front. The 3 biggest offenders are the sigma […]

I got the opportunity to shoot Brick Alley Pub the other day. They’re working on a new website and wanted to get some images for that. It was interesting being in the restaurant so early no one else was there. Restaurants and bars are NOT easy to shoot though, the lighting is pretty difficult. It was […]

I made it out to Sachuest yesterday morning. I didn’t call the gang because I wasn’t sure if I’d sleep in or not, but I managed to get out of bed and not miss everything… It was a decent sunrise with thick enough clouds I could shoot for a while w/o missing the best part […]

Well it’s been a quiet week this week. Last week Moseley ended up snapping at Elias so we were forced to take him back to the shelter we got him from. We couldn’t risk anything worse happening (it left a tiny mark on Elias’ forearm and Elias provoked him, but it could happen again and […]
