Sushi @ Joto Japanese Restaurant

  The past week I was on a business trip for work, I took my camera with but the few times that I went out to capture the “Sunrise” & “Sunset” it was completely overcast. Since I haven’t been getting lucky with the weather outside I had to resort to shooting indoors. The photos I am sharing today are from “Joto Japanese Restaurant” in Clearwater, Florida.  This place was awesome back in the day! Don’t get me wrong, the food is still great and the servers Read More +

Philippe Park – Safety Harbor, Florida

I knew it was going to be cold this morning but I wasn’t ready for it to be 45°, for Florida this is considered cold weather. I rushed to get ready, grabbed my gear and hopped in the car. I was running late, I had to go to a spot that I was familiar with, so I headed to Safety Harbor. As I was approaching my regular spot I noticed that sky was fairly clear, I have shot the same scene many times so I Read More +

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll

Everyone I know knows that I have a MASSIVE sweet tooth but honestly who doesn’t love a good dessert?!?! I haven’t been using my macro lens anywhere near as much as I should have so I will be sharing photos of all kinds of food through my blog. Prepare to get HUNGRY!  

Morning Dew at Safety Harbor, Florida

Yesterday I was able to make in time to capture the sunrise, I also messed around with a few macro shots with my kit lens (SELP1650). I did not have enough time to switch lenses otherwise I would have used my dedicated macro lens (SEL30M35). The image above is 3 bracketed exposures shot handheld, yes handheld. I have been using this technique to get angles that would otherwise very difficult with a tripod and I have gotten some great shots that way. Let me know Read More +

Good Morning!

Last week I launched my website, I have been very busy tweaking little things here and there to give the audience (YOU) that experience that I would expect from a website. I am really happy with how it has turned out but I am far from done. With that said, I decided to make another promise to myself. I work 8am-6pm during the week and with the current time change it is impossible for me to shoot the sunset so I will be waking up early to Read More +

Sunset @ Siesta Key Beach, Florida (2014 Vacation)

Last month I took a vacation and what better place then Siesta Key, Florida. Unfortunately I did not get to shoot as much as I wanted to but I did get lucky the one day that I did. This shot was captured off of Ocean Blvd on a private beach. There was no parking so I had my fiancee drop me off and I spent about an hour walking around shooting different spots. At one point I was 3 shots in and the waves pushed Read More +

John Chesnut Park – Palm Harbor, FL

Went out last night to get my first shoot of the year in, I should have left earlier to look for a new spot but I ended up at John Chesnut Park. I remember coming here with friends as a kid , lots of good memories! I got to the park about 30 minutes prior to sunset, just enough time to get some shots from different spots. This photo is a combination of 5 bracketed exposures merged into one with Photomatix and finally edited with Read More +
