Description:  “Hello lamp-post, whatcha knowin?  I’ve come to watch your flowers growin’.  Ain’tcha got no rhymes for me?  Doot-in’ doo-doo…” This photo was taken a few years ago shortly after I decided to pick photography backup more aggressively.  I remember waiting in this exact spot for a good 30 – 40 minutes for 1) the […]

Meet Brady. As I headed from work to the Metreon to catch AVATAR, Brady was sitting on the sidewalk along 4th Ave. kindly asking for change.  I approached him and explained my BW$P project.  Brady agreed without hesitation and not once asked for more.  I asked him what his name was and how he was […]

Description:  After fiddling with the post processing of Bent for a little bit, I settled on this alternate crop and processing.  Personally, I think I like this outtake more than the original black and white outtake, but, at this time, the BW$P project is specifically for black and white portraits. Location: San Francisco, CaliforniaDate Taken: […]

Since the first week of 2010 is so short, you will only have a couple of days to get […]

Meet Deon. During the lunch rush hour, as I crossed the street heading back to my office, I ran into Deon.  I told him about my BW$P project and he responded, “What, you want to draw my picture or something?”  I explained I would take a photograph of him and apologized and he agreed.  As […]

I am part of a few Photography groups over on LinkedIn and Joakim Lloyd Raboff recently asked, “[What are] your three favorite and most useful lenses?” in the Photography Industry Professionals group.  There was some good discussion on the topic, so I thought I’d share the results, provide my input, and ask you what your […]

Ron Reeves recently posted this exact question in the Photography Industry Professionals group on LinkedIn and received a very impressive response.  It goes to show how many talented photographers are/were out there. So, to kick off the new year, here is a list of inspirational photographers, some of which might be new names, some of […]

Description:  Captured at sunrise over Haleakala in Maui, this photograph is a bit different than my usual style.  For this image, I put my camera on manual focus, and purposefully set everything out of focus.  My intention was to make the image feel as if the viewer were just waking up and opening their eyes on […]
