Project 52….”Guitar Man”

Here is another “Project 52″ self portrait. If you haven’t been following along I’ve been trying to do a self portrait a week for the entire year. You can check out the earlier pics here.  Here is a little back story on this pic. While growing up I had an old guitar that I goofed around with. I never got very good. I did play back-up for our church band for a VERY short time. My guitar actually got stolen out of the church…hmmmm, I think someone was trying to send me a message. LOL.  Well, my oldest son loves music and wants to learn to play so we bought him this guitar and he’s been messing around with it. As you can tell it isn’t a full size guitar but it works great for his hands. I shot this at 9pm with three off camera flashes. One camera left slightly behind me. One camera right slightly in front of me and one on a boom arm above me. This was shot at 1/30 at f8 at ISO 100. Let me know what you think …..and…..ROCK ON!!!

Project 52…week 9

I started a personal project at the begining of the year. The idea was to do one “self portrait” per week for 52 weeks. My hope was that I would push my creative juices. Also my wife and kids were getting tired of me pointing the camera at them .  The year started off good but I quickly got behind and now here we are half way through the year and I’m only on week 9. I’ve had several people drop me emails asking me for my next installment. So to all those faithful viewers I make a vow….well, atleast a heartfelt promise…errr, it’s my sincere goal. To get back on track and to catch up with this project. With that in mind let me present….”Old McDonald”…this image was shot at 3pm in my back yard using off camera flash. I then tweaked it in photoshop, added a texture layer, used a sepia action and added an old border. I had a blast creating this one and have several more good ideas for the next few weeks. So I hope you enjoy this and please let me know what you think.

Trash the Dress

Last weekend I had the opportunity to do a fun and creative “Trash the Dress” shoot with Tina.

What may you ask is “Trash the Dress.” Well, instead of buying the wedding dress and then letting it sit in the closet for the next 50 years, why not pull it out and have a creative photo session in some crazy, creative locations. The “TTD” shoot can be done weeks or months after your wedding when you are no longer worried about getting it dirty.
Well, Tina, I had a blast during our session and I think we got some great images that you’re going to love. I can’t wait to build your album. Here are a few “Sneak Peak” images……
