Road Trippin

Been away from my blog for a bit now. Just been busy mostly and have multiple projects I'm working on. Anyways last time I promised I would make my next post entirely about California. I had such a great time with my family. We stayed in California for over a week and have a blast. We spent three eventful days in Disneyland/California adventure. I must say those are two pretty awesome places. Spent some time at the beach as well which is always fun. Had a chance to see some family I don't visit often. Would like to live in California again so maybe we shall see. Overall just a really great time you don't forget. Here are some of my favorite images from that trip

Not This Time

Feeling pretty tired but I want to get a new post in. Ive mostly been doing editing rather shooting but the last few days I've squeezed in some shots. Tonight was particularly good in that ifinally got a lighting bolt. It may not be quite the desired result but its a start. Lightning is a tricky subject because of its ridiculous speed. It has evaded me up until this time. I also did a shoot with some friends while playing with some soccer balls. This post will be moslty random stuff. I did go on a week long vacation to california and I have a ton of pics. Most are organized now and my next post will be solely dedicated to my trip to california. With that being said here is some work. Thanks for stopping by.

Keep It RAW

I feel like I've been away from my blog for a bit now. My apologizes to my followers for that. I would give some lame excuse as to why I haven't updated in awhile, but that wouldn't be right. Truthfully I have been very busy though, mostly with actually taking shots and A TON of editing. Did some baby shots for my girlfriends family and I must say some of them came out really well. Considering my advancement in skills and familiarity with Photoshop I am now putting myself out there for work. If any of you reading this or know someone who needs them. I am officially available for hire as a photographer. If you are reading this then you can come here to see my work and I plan on starting a facebook page. Recently I have only been shooting in RAW format which is new to me. Before I did some research on RAW files I didn't quite understand what the benefits were. Another area I have been researching and playing with is HDR photos as well. HDR photos are really quite interesting in themselves and bring a whole new world of detail which I was not aware of . On a side note Photoshop CS5 continues to blow my mind. With all that said, here is what I have been working on.
