Sunset On The Beach
Sunsets on the beach is a project I am thinking about starting. what it is going to be is simply portraits on the beach at sunset. Now I know what your thinking "that has been done hundreds of times". Well you are absolutely right, it has been. why I want to shoot this small project is simply because i love the light at sunset it is beautiful and I would say edgy. So i would like to capture that feeling I get in a portrait.
This image is more on the edgy side of how I saw the day.

Car shoot
So shooting cars has never really been something I love doing or something I think I’m good at. But my good friend said he really wanted me to take photos of his car. Of cores me being who I am and jumping on any photo opportunity I said yes. Going into this shoot I had no idea what to expect. I don’t know what to look for when I shoot cars I don’t know good angels when it come to shooting cars so you can say I went into this shoot blind. Sometimes that’s not always a bad thing. So I was thinking in my head well what could I relate a car to that is something I enjoy shooting. I immediately thought of the work I do with the body. And once I thought of that I thought ok well when I shoot a body in the studio what do I look for.
I look for
How the light is hitting the subject?
How can I adjust the light to get what I want?
Where are the appealing lines?
What am I trying to say/show my viewer?
So now that I got that out on the table time to think about it. Well the light was very flat because it was about to rain not a horrible thing but not the best to work with. Then the next question was where are the appealing lines in the car it self? Well I was able to see with the light that was available that I had some cool and fun shadows to play with. And the biggest question is what am I trying to show the viewer? Now this question I had no clue at all. I have never looked at car photos with any artistic view or anything like that so I don’t know what car people look for. Now to some people look at photos of cars and say that just a car and that is all fine and good but that’s not the type of photographer I am. I try for all my work to have some sort of body and presence. So I got to talking with my friend and he was telling me all the stuff car enthusiast look for so I worked off of what he told me and got these images. I really hope you like them I put a lot of time and thought into shoot / editing them.

storm chasing
So this is something I have wanted to shoot for a long time. But every time there is a storm I either never have my camera or its already raining way to hard. The other night I was in Madison and the storm was across the water and it was so perfect and I HAD MY CAMREA so I was really excited.

studio shoots
Hey all!!!
So this summer had been a little crazy and exciting to say the least. It’s had its ups and down but hey when dose life not have ups and downs. But it has been great and I wouldn’t have it any other way. You got to learn somehow.
But anyway with my photography. It’s been exciting. I have shot a lot of fun stuff. It has just kind of been me and my camera exploring life, witch is a great thing, it makes me stop and think about things other then just taking them for granted. But I hate to tell you that doesn’t just happen sometimes you need to really look at something to get the big picture. Trust me it takes a while.
So here is a shoot that I was able to do in the studio this summer witch was really fun. The model was great and we had a awesome day shooting. I think you can tell from the photos.
Something really cool we did during this shoot was something I have been wanting to do forever and it kind of just happen witch was great I love it when that kind of stuff happens when I’m shooting . At first it was just a new school style pin up shoot and she had this marilyn Monroe outfit so we recreated a few of my favorite marilyn shots
So here are some and there will be more

levis grad
so I shot a graduation and it was a great time. it was really dark and about to rain hahaha but in all the images came out ok i was shooting with my canon 10D with a 70 X 200 2.8. my iso had to go up to 400 then i had to go to 800 and idk if anyone has shot or shoots with the 10D once you go over 200 iso you get a lot of noise. but I think it adds to the images. Look and let me know what you think.
