Jadon’s 3rd Birthday Party

For Jadon’s 3rd birthday, we decided again to have it at Monkey Joes.  Jadon and all the kids that showed up had a blast and even some of the parents… :)   I admit, I LOVE goin down those inflatable slides.

Thanks to all the kids and parents that joined us in celebrating Jadon’s 3rd birthday.

I obviously brought along the camera but I didn’t want to spend the whole day snapping away so here are just a few images from that day.

group shoot :: End of the Road

Every now and again, our small group of photographers will have a small shoot that we get together for.  It’s mainly just for practice and opening up some creative opportunities that we may be able to use for our clients.  For this one, we met a few models out on a deserted road in Columbus, and went to town.

For me, this was a great opportunity to try out some off camera lighting and some tilt shift practice.  I normally don’t post so many tilt photos as i don’t like to go overboard but for this one I do have alot because I wanted to practice using this a bit more.

Check out the shots I was able to get from this shoot.











Here are a few shots of some of the photographers that joined us on this shoot.

Shalon :: my beautiful wife!

So here I go again, months have gone by without a post.  I’m so sorry ‘blog’ for neglecting you.

Here’s to hoping again that my posts will become more regular.

Starting with my wife.  This was a shot from a wedding that she was in, that I just so happened to be shooting.  :)  I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for her.  She is smart, gorgeous and fun to be around.

Maybe one day I’ll actually get her in a photo shoot.  :)

Columbus Photography Group :: Airport Session

Hello bloggity blog. Long time no chat.. :)

Yet again I find myself behind on the blog posts so here starts my next attempt to get it going again.

Last night our local photography group held an awesome group session, complete with a models, cars, planes, and pizza (the latter being my fav of course.. lol ).  We all had a blastdigity time and I’ve yet to finish editing all the images. BUT, for your viewing pleasure, I shall fill thou hearts with joyful visual stimulation.  In other words, I have a few pictures to post.

Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed working on them.  (Special thanks to John Helms for putting all of this together)

Fishing in Port St. Joe, Florida

Earlier this month my dad and I along with a couple of friends of ours, Wayne and Jimmy, took a trip to Mexico Beach/Port St Joe, FL to do a little fishing.  My dad bought a center console Mako last year and has been dieing to take it out in the ocean.  We had an a great time.  Fishing for spanish, kings, grouper, snapper and anything else we could catch.  :)

We had also entered into a fishing tournament with Bluewater Outriggers for their Charity Tournament.  We didn’t do so well so instead of coming back at the allotted time for weigh ins we just stayed out and continued to fish.  The next day however, we went back out and landed some very nice fish.  We caught several spanish and kings including a 40 lbs King that my dad pulled in, and I landed about a 3 1/2 – 4 foot shark.  Check out the link above for pictures from the tournament (they are not mine though).  I think that we may make this an annual trip.  Lots of fun.

So with all that said, I unfortunately have no pictures from the tournament or even from fishing.  I took my camera out the first day but was so scared to pull it out of the console since saltwater can eat up a camera quickly.  But I did get one shot from the trip back to our hotel of the sunset which I liked so I’ll post it up.

Enjoy!  :)

I was terrified to pull out the camera on the boat yet I wasn’t scared to hang it outside the back window to catch this shot.  Go figure.  :\
