19th Hole Magazine Event / Kent Rock Manor

Kent Rock Manor | The 19th Hole Magazine (Thanks to TC for taking my picture!) _____________________________

Location Scouting: Kent Rock Manor

Notes: Thanks to Kent Rock Manor for allowing me to photograph their lovely property. Great place for everything from weddings to cinema.

Flirtinis in the Garden

Location Scouting: Water Museum

Notes: Used the Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center on many occasions, but always good to revisit with a different angle. One of my goals is to record places for future reference, either for model shoots, or spots that might have cinematic or storytelling appeal. Plus it gives me a chance to do purely composition based […]

Vidicon

Notes: Found this Ampex Vidicon 25mm f/1.4 on another treasure hunt. The other 25mm I have focuses, but you can’t change the aperture. This one, you can change the aperture, but the focusing seems to have been set to infinity by the factory. A workaround is to “focus” by not threading it all the way […]

P&M Wedding

Myrtle Beach, SC

Fake A&F Ad

Miss Fil-Am 2011

Miss Georgia 2010 Christina McCauley 🙂 Cheesecake and Raspberry ★★★★☆

Location Scouting: Cotton Mill

“Rosanna Roll” Avocado, Sriracha Sauce, Rice, Seaweed: ★★★★★ Tofu House: That fish cake tofu delicious thing: ★★★★★

In 3D (with the Loreo 3D Lens Cap!)

Ana in 3D

Notes: To get the 3D effect you have to use a Pokescope, or probably any other stereoscopic viewer. The Loreo lens is limited to f/11 or f/22, okay for outside shooting, but then I realized you can still shoot off camera speedlights with it. Brilliant! The plastic lens also creates lens flares that remind me […]

In Stereo

Notes: I’m done with regular old still photos and moved on to the next level ;). Playing around with the Loreo 3D Lens in a cap which is a stereoscopic image creator. Combined with the Pokescope, it sure does look neat, with a convincing 3D effect. This old world technology combined with the digital photography […]

Figure Drawing – 5-25-2011

Notes: Atlanta Artists Center, Charcoal on Newsprint, which I think will be my main medium from now on. It’s simple and affordable, with a good texture.

V&A Sacred Heart Wedding, Augusta

Wedding Photography and Videography at Sacred Heart Cultural Center in Augusta, GA.

Location Scouting: Railway Museum

Indian Food: Vegetables and Tamarind Sauce, Nan, and Curry: ★★★★☆ Notes: Second trip to the Southeastern Railway Museum. They love photographers or visitors in general so highly recommended for anyone interested in colors, urban decay, and a trip through time. Why modern day life isn’t as colorful I don’t know. Great place for both Lookbook […]

The Scientist

“…Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry, You don’t know how lovely you are…”

Figure Drawing – 5-18-2011 – Atlanta Artists Center

Notes: Atlanta Artists Center. Charcoal on newsprint. Male model reminded me of Perseus from Greek mythology. As for the drawings, like a ballplayer, I had an off night tonight, maybe going something like 2 for 4, had other things on my mind.

Road Trip: NE Georgia

Bell’s Hamburgers: Georgia Fried Chicken with Fried Okra and Rice and Gravy: ★★★★☆ Hot Boiled Peanuts: ★★★★★ 🙂

Team Square / Triangle

Film School

Sacred Heart

Notes: Helped out a friend on a pre wedding test shoot at Sacred Heart Cultural Center in Augusta. Place was massive and definitely a visual and architectural delight. In going through images to post, I normally cull the ones that fit the theme that I was trying to go for. For this one, the natural […]

Mr. Tea

Chicken with some spicy sauce sitting on bean sprouts, with a fried egg and mixed vegetables: ★★★☆☆

Sithiphone

Notes: Quick shoot a day or so before he had to go back to Laos. Thanks to KP for letting us borrow his very nice (and $$) PRS guitar for the shoot. 😎 The same brand of guitar that Carlos Santana and other famous musicians use (or get for free). Makes me think about how […]

Random Thursday

Notes: I don’t think I go out and take pictures, I more hang out, think of things to do other than being responsible, and the photos just naturally come out of it. A friend in college once told me he never got any of his work done because, “I was too fun to be around.” […]
