Bryce at 2 yrs.

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

This is my nephew, Bryce Dylan Wells.  He rocks so hard.  I’ve photographed him since the day he was born and he just keeps getting bigger!!!  This is him a few weeks ago..eating dip.  He loves chips and dip.

50mm Challenge

Monday, January 26th, 2009

I talk with other photographers a lot, and one conversation I have often is zoom lenses vs. prime lenses (lenses with a set focal range).  My favorite lens is the canon 24-70mm 2.8 L … I literally never take it off my camera.  I love the versatility and variety of types of shots I can get quickly in a single shoot.  However, my good friend, Andrew, always talks about how it pushes and challenges him to be creative within a set focal length, and another friend, Lauren, even posted on her blog about it here (both of them are sick photographers, so you should check them out).  Challenged received guys.  So, I went to Atlanta with my band, Sleeperstar, for a show this past weekend, and I only brought my 50mm 1.4. It was really fun, I would encourage you to take the 50mm challenge as well!   Here are some images.

Studio time with the Cave’s

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

My best friend, Aaron, who you met in a earlier post, got to borrow a studio set up from a friend of his, so naturally we had to play with it!  It’s always fun to go into a setting like that without clients and just get to be creative [a rarity at that].  So we traded off doing test shots of each other, and as a bonus, we were at his house which just so happens to have a brand new baby girl in it, so we had to throw her in the mix too!
