Skate park at night

I’ve been pretty busy preparing for my Lightroom Workshops and haven’t had time to post much lately.

I made a short trip to Arkansas back in Feb. and found a little skate park and decided to do some night photography of the skater kids doing jumps and tricks. It was fun and the kids were working hard to show off for the camera.

I shot these with 2 Canon Speedlights, a Canon wireless commander, and the assistance of my little brother Matt.

Leigh Anna Thompson - I love these!

Dominican Republic cab ride

I just finished teaching a 3 day Adobe Lightroom workshop in the Dominican Republic. Now I’m in Puerto Rico to teach another 3 day workshop this weekend! It’s not too late to enroll!

Anyway, my time in the Dominican was short and I wasn’t able to shoot much, but I snapped a few images from the passenger seat during one of my cab rides in the wild Dominican traffic. As is the case in many countries, stop signs are mostly just for decoration!

Mr. Coffee

I haven’t yet bought an HD-DSLR so I haven’t been able to produce much video lately. However, I recently joined up with Sunny Tsui to shoot this fun little video as a production test of the Canon 5dmk2. I wanted a quick and easy project to figure out the workflow, so one night I was getting a cup of coffee with Sunny and just as an example of something we could shoot easily, I came up with this idea. I decided to just do it and a week later we were shooting.

djd - A surprize ending!

belief in god is no excuse for hatred

Lyla Morrison asked me to shoot a photo for a poster project designed with the goal of creating an impact and sparking discussion. I think we succeeded, what do you think?

This photo was done completely in camera with the only photoshop work being basic sharpening, color balance, and the text at the very bottom which states, “belief in God is no excuse for hatred”.

Mitch Headshot/Portraits

Mitch is a musician from Atlanta, but lives in Boston. He needed some new promo photos, so he got in touch with me and we went out and had a fun photoshoot and got a lot of great pictures. I had a tough time narrowing it down, but here are my two favorite shots from the day!

djd - I like both but like the b/w best.

New Website for Project Tandem

So I know I’ve mentioned them before on this blog, but two of my friends from Maine made an 11,000 mile journey around the US to document what people are doing on a local level to help the environment.

Well, they’ve just launched a new version of the website complete with photos and audio and an interactive map of the route, so I’m highly suggesting that you check out the great work at www.projecttandem.org

Arcade Fire CD Cover Mockup

I was asked by my friend, Diana, to help with the photography and photoshop composite work on a mock-up CD cover for a band called Arcade Fire. She created a logo and wanted the logo to be in the blown out smoke from a candle on top of a cupcake.

So, grab a cupcake (with sprinkles), a candle, a few studio strobes, and we are all set!

Andrea Fremiotti Gallery at Big Studio

Lately I’ve been doing some freelance work for Andrea Fremiotti, who owns Burn Photo, and one of the things I did was help him prepare for a gallery show at Big Studio. I did the printing and coordinated the framing, designed and published a companion book, and then hung the show. The images are stunning aerial photos of housing development areas ‘on hiatus’ because the money ran out during the recession of 2008-2009. He calls this series “Arrested Development”. You should check out www.andreafremiotti.com to check them out and check out his other work as well!
