Retrospect

The end of the year is always a good time to look back see where you’ve been and to try and articulate where you want to be this time next year. So, the next couple of weeks will be filled with that, as well as family and good food. One of my recent stated goals was to have a photo selected as one of Strobist’s favorites. I am a geek when it comes to photo stuff. The blogs I read would bore most of you, but I found this gem of a site. It’s a great place for someone that is just beginning to use off camera flash in their photos, all the way to someone who has been doing it for years. I have found tons of useful, and some useless information, but all entertaining. So last week I posted this photo that I have been wanting to post on my blog for some time, just never got around to doing it. It was chosen as a favorite in the Strobist Flickr Pool. Geeky I know, but one goal met for the year! (hopefully more to come). The photo ran in Portico magazine as an illustration on the resurgence of Raquetball. My good friend and ever present model, Seth Newell was gracious enough to channel Ron Burgundy.

*EDIT- How freaking cool that Strobist himself David Hobby not only commented but was the first one! Thanks so much!

Whatever Happened to Raquetball?

I am Terrified

From the US Postal Inspection ad job we did I met Paddy. He was the one with the tattoos, sunglasses, and faux hawk. Paddy is the lead singer of a hard core band, and we got to talking and figured I should photo his band, I am Terrified, at some point. A few weeks ago we finally got to do that. I have been wanting to post some of the images, but haven’t had a chance to edit them. So, my other friend Brad Davis was kind enough to create a poster for them. This is the image that will make the poster.
