Dodging shifty bad weather and smoke clouds from numerous local fires while sweating profusely in the lovely June heat in Florida we had a lot of fun and made some great images. [...]

Delivering images to clients above and beyond what they ask for and then having them run with my idea for the 2 page spread is very rewarding. This short clip is just a rough time lapse compilation of the images shot to create this double page spread. Follow up to this post. Song: March of [...]

During my trip to Arizona in January (same trip I met this guy on), I made some time to head out of Phoenix and into the Tonto National Forest. The weather was quite nice and the light was pretty good, albeit for a few clouds. I love the southwestern U.S. If it weren’t for my [...]

Lately I’ve been fascinated with time lapse film. Time lapse is a concept that I’ve been familiar with for a long time.

Last December I was hired by Independent Banker Magazine to photograph an executive for an advertorial spread. I do a lot of corporate editorial work, and typically there’s not a lot of time to get the shot on the day of the shoot. Executives rarely can afford give me as much time as I’d like [...]
