Cody swinging in the sun

I found these while cleaning off some cards for a shoot today. Shooting into the sun is always a little tricky, but add a moving target like a kid on a swing and it gets even tougher. Here were a few I was proud of out of the hundred or so I took.

He asked for it

My brother, Cody, keeps harassing me for not posting anything “funny” on my blog. Then he made the mistake of sending me this self-portrait he took yesterday using Photo Booth.
Tim had a great idea, please give it a caption in the comments.
So there. Funny enough for you?

Still alive

I just wanted to check in and let everyone know I’m still alive. We got Cody out of the hospital last week and he has recovered nicely. Conner and I are sick, however, and that’s kept me down for the better part of the week. I’m still not feeling great, but I’m at least functional [...]

What a day it continues to be

In case, once again, you haven’t been following on Twitter, I should let you know we are still in the hospital.

I’ll head to Weinerschnitzel later this week and do [...]

Become a better photo marketer

There are a million sites out there dedicated to making you a better photographer. Many are great, some are not.
One of the great resources, though, has always been Zack Arias. The past few days, he’s started presenting video critiques of photographer’s websites on his blog. These have been amazing so far. After just two episodes, [...]

Thank God we didn’t start the shiv-making lessons yet

We’re just enjoying a hectic Friday deadline day when the phone rings.
It’s Colton’s vice-principle.
Colton is in trouble.
For stabbing a classmate.
With a thankfully unsharpened popsicle stick.
It’s really not as bad as it sounds. Just two boys doing what boys do when given anything resembling a knife or sword. They fought. Somehow though, Colton managed to draw [...]
