A photo and lighting place! Here I'll post some stuff I've shot in the process of learning.

Since my move to Fujifilm equipment (WAY sharper & MUCH better than my old Nikon gear) , I now shoot with two Fuji X-E2 bodies and the NEW X-T2 from Sherry on my birthday!


* Fujinon XF10-24 f/3.5-4.8 R (SHARP across the range!)
*
Fujinon XF18-55 f/2.8-4.0 R (SHARP across the range!)
* Fujinon XF60 f/2.4 (SHARP across the range!)
* Fujinon XF55-200 f/3.5-4.8 R (Uber SHARP across the range!)


Flash stuff:
* 6 Yongnuo 560-IV with commander/transmitter.
* 6 Nikon SB-25/26/28s (old, manual, reliable, nice),
* (6) Pocket Wizard and (6) Yongnuo RF-603 radio flash triggers

And
tons of stands, umbrellas, soft-boxes, brolly boxes, mounts, hot & cold shoes (and some lukewarm ones), cords, spigots, clamps, pocket wizard triggers, reflectors, scrims, backdrops, adapters, snoots, grids, batteries , chargers, bags & cases, gewgaws, clamps, gimcracks, whatchamacallits, doohickeys, thingamajigs, whatnots, widgets, et cetera.

I love to shoot out on the street, but the technical aspects of photography/lighting are fascinating - and sometimes vexing. I am fortunate to shoot with motivated and inquisitive photographers.


I am available for portraits, senior photos & product photography.

Commercially printed copies (up to 24" x 36" of most photos seen here are available on high quality paper or mounted board for framing.

12 April 2009

Saturday with nothing to do - A day in the life of the sprawling metropolis of Columbia from 6:20 PM to 1:00 PM, 11APR09

On Saturday I went in to work, but after a few hours, I looked outside and decided it was too nice out to sit at my desk and do spreadsheets. I hadn't planned to do any shooting in particular, so I only had my small camera bag and the stuff I always have in my trunk (light stands, umbrellas, mounting hardware, reflectors etc..........). These are a few of the shots I took on 11APR09 between 1:00 PM and 7:00 PM. Nothing spectacular, but pretty good variety.

Went to the 9th Street Deli for lunch (best sandwiches in Columbia) . Mike, the owner, said that a folk musician would be there around 5:00 to play on the 4'x6' stage in the small venue, so I went to get an umbrella (yep, always in my trunk) and bungeed it 8 feet up a post in the middle of the room facing the stage. That way I could show up at 5:00, plug in the double-long TTL cord and shoot away. This little gal was sitting at the bar behind the umbrella - what a test shot!

Met a girl at the bar - 1:00 PM
