Halloween 2009

Reece as Captain America and Kenzie as Coraline

Some Pics From a Recent Shoot

October Sky

Beautiful Fall Evening

Great evening out...sunset peeking through the dark clouds lighting up the fall colors ... and the only camera I had on me was my iPhone. I did snap these two shots with it, though.

Fisheye Fun

Playing with the new 10-16 mm lens we got at work.

Fall Tree

My Helper

A shot of Kenzie from when she was helping me with a photo shoot this past weekend at the park. He primary duties were to carry and move light stands, and entertain the baby in the photos, and she did a great job.

Fountain

Vader

One flash sitting about a foot below figure pointed straight up at ceiling, which provides the ambient and some hits him to give the dramatic uplighting.

Kittens

We have five new kittens at our house. Here are two of them. If anyone out there wants a cute kitten, let me know.

Fall is coming

Park Fountain

Going through some old files and ran across this shot I had never posted.

Medical Plaza B

Fishing Pals

Another shot from Monday's shoot in the rain.

Holding Hands

From a shoot earlier today ... who lets a little bit of rain stop them.

Blue Mixer

Close up of mixer attachment...color balance set to incandescent to give the blue tint.

The Violin Maker

A photo I shot a while back for work. It's of Bruce Brown, an Ironton, Ohio, man who had heart surgery, but is doing great and is back in his wood shop making violins. Pretty simple lighting setup, two Alien Bees units, one camera left through a large softbox moved in close to the subject and a second camera right pointed at the violins in the background with a 10-degree honeycomb grid.

Happy Birthday Reece

Sunday was his party, but today he turns 5.

Water & Rocks

Open Water Swim

Kenzie took part in her first open water swim Saturday morning at Cave Run Lake. She swam the 1 mile option, which involved two laps of swimming around a buoy that was a quarter mile from the shore. The buoy is the two round red things floating way off in the distance in the second photo.
