A few snap-shots while we cleaned up after hurricane Gustov. Sorry for the poor quality...these were shot with a P&S borrowed from my daughter. We are fine. We have electricity. Most of our city does not. Things are crazy, but we have it under control in my household. Thoughts and prayers are welcome. -1 My son raking 2-Piles of leaves and small limbs I rinsed off the roof....

Well here is my first paid photo engagement shoot and I'm hoping it will help lead to many more! It was my second time doing engagement photos and I was definitely more confident in running the shoot which I think helped me get better pics. All shot with my 30D and my new Tamron 17-50mm 2.8 which I loved using for this, much better than the 18-55mm kit lens I used last time I did a photo shoot!...

My daughter on her 9th birthday. C&C welcome.

Shot this with Tmax 400 film, but can't tell you anything else about it. Developed myself in D76 @ 20C and then had it scanned in with a photo lab. This is the scanned copy. I think the kid's head in the basket is a bit creepy. Anyone else?

I'm thinking of doing a 1.66 day (whole Saturday and 2/3 Sunday) fashion/model portraiture class next spring, April-May 2009, here in Conejo Valley (so I don't have to move my lights too far, and it's only 40 min from LAX anyway). The curriculum I'm thinking about may include some or all of the following topics: studio lighting 101 light modifiers and what they do various light setups ...

Here are a few photos from a session a few weeks ago with a two your old. I love working with kids this age and this one was a lot of fun. Please give me your honest C&C. I really need input to improve. Thanks for looking. (By the way, I miss all of you. I need to get back on here again.

This series of photos came about due to a second idea I had for the recent DSS Mega Challenge (the "failed" idea is the last in this set). Though I didn't run with this idea, this series demonstrates a ton of firsts for me as a photographer: using a multi-light set-up, working with a "model" and posing, and post-processing utterly unlike anything I normally do. I wanted to capture a style...

She can also be a bit misterious: 4. She can get ya if you're not careful: 5. But sometimes she can be dreamy: 6. Or fairly sensual: 7. She liked to ...

All of Alaska woke up with excitement over the news of Sarah Palin's appointment to be running mate for the Republican party. I was just getting my kids ready for school when the phone rang when my mom called to tell us. And then the celebrations started. Every where I went yesterday everyone was buzzing about it, so I thought I would share with all of you how excited we all are and some ...

So, I'll preface this with a bit of a story. A couple hired me to do their engagement set(ironically, not this couple here, but her older sister). It then turned into 2 shoots in Ocean City, MD first, the couple and their engagement set and then family portraits just out having a good time at the beach near sundown. So I was playing around with this couple, having them out near the water ...
