August catchup…

Yes I’m very behind with my family blog posts… I’ve been all over the place doing things lately including shooting weddings on the weekends as a second shooter for the Baillys… We’ve been doing a lot of fun things at night as well so I don’t have as much time at home to process and […]

Lake of the clouds!

2 Sep ’12 by Ben

Well, I finally got up on/around Mount Washington for a good/great sunrise. This was actually taken OF Mount Washington FROM the summit of Mount Monroe. You can see the lake of the clouds as well. I was lucky enough to get a free nights stay at the hut from my buddy David Simms. I jumped […]

Gradual Neutral Density Filter FAQ

28 Aug ’12 by Ben

Filters are one of my most used tools in my kit. After the obvious camera, lens and tripod I use for my landscapes, my filters are always the next pieces out of my bag (followed by my remote). I prefer to capture my images as best as possible in camera to avoid as much processing […]

Beavertail!

27 Aug ’12 by Ben

Made it down to Beavertail Saturday and was treated to a pretty epic sunrise. It was quite calm and VERY low tide so I could get out on some rocks well south of the light reasonably safely (I didn’t even get my boots wet!). Enjoy.

Ned’s Lighthouse

19 Aug ’12 by Ben

Made it out to a new location last weekend, Ned’s Lighthouse. Dave (Simms) suggested it so we headed out to a fun lighthouse in Massachusetts with easy access. It’s was almost weird having it be at the end of a street in town with a park with plenty of parking and no rules. Enjoy.

Beach Night

15 Aug ’12 by Ben

Let’s see here… this update covers a beach night, a boat ride night, and a birthday/graduation/pool party. Bella also learned to sit at the table all on her own. She’s been walking all over the place which has been awesome. I also think she can already dance better than I can! Enjoy!

Gray Days

14 Aug ’12 by Ben

Sometimes I go out on my sunrise shoots and find drab gray mornings. I don’t let it keep me from shooting. I always work to get something worthwhile from every shoot. Let me know what you think!

SHE WALKS!!!!

2 Aug ’12 by Ben

After all these updates and all these “she’s almost walking” comments, Isabella is finally walking! I know it’s been a few weeks since my last update, but in that time she’s really walking now. She can go from the front room through the kitchen to the back room w/o any help and will even do […]

Made it down to Black Point in Narragansett this morning. This is another place I’ve been before but never gotten anything I really loved. That changed this morning. Enjoy.

Mount Washington Sunrise!

30 Jul ’12 by Ben

Mount Washington open’s it’s auto road for sunrises 3 times a year. I learned that last week, and this Sunday just happened to be one of the days… So David Howland and I hopped in the MINI late Saturday night and headed up to see what sort of fun we could have. We got there around 2:30am […]

Hazard Ave 7.26.2012

26 Jul ’12 by Ben

This was actually meant to be a Bass Rock shoot this AM. I even went there and shot for about a half hour during blue hour. But there were 6~8 fishermen there and a TON of their trash. I was totally discouraged, but the light was so amazing I wasn’t going to not get anything […]

Brenton Cove

22 Jul ’12 by Ben

I finally got out to Brenton Cove for a sunrise. Why? Because I was asked to leave Castle Hill… Anyway, Brenton was actually a nice place to explore. I haven’t shot there before (for a sunrise/sunset at least) so it was nice to try something new. The sunrise angle was a bit far north for […]

17 Jul ’12 by Ben

My buddy Dave Simms and I made it out to Sachuest Sunday morning. He and I always have a good time shooting together, but this morning mother nature put on a great show with a pretty special sunrise we both enjoyed.

Friday we had the annual Portuguese feast near Nikki’s parents house. That night we spent the night, then we went […]
