Made it out to snag a sunset. I was doing an architecture shoot and noticed the sky was getting some great color. As soon as I was done I tried to make it to Beavertail in time but was a bit late… I ended up in Sheffield Cove and was treated to quite a show!

This post is a bit overdue and because of that it’s probably going to be a bit long… In case you haven’t noticed I’ve been in the process of switching my entire kit over from a canon full frame kit to a fuji APS-C (“crop”) kit. This has roots that go back about 5 years […]

I finally jumped into (the deep end of?) the pool… I bought a “drone”. I’ve been wanting to get into aerial photography for a long long time now. I’ve seen the drones available for a while now and I’ve watched them mature into a product that takes images that are sell-able but also into […]

Made it out to Elephant Rocks this morning. It looked like it was going to be a blown out bluebird morning with zero clouds but as I got closer to the water I noticed a low band of clouds on the horizon. As I setup to start shooting the land was getting just warm enough […]

Made it up to Mount Washington/Tuckerman’s Ravine/Hillmans highway last week. We set out to possibly go all the way to the top with plans to ski the ravine on the way back down. Avalanche conditions were considerable (3 out of 5) with wind load on frozen slush with zero visibility up high so we went […]

We were lucky enough to go to Wachuestt the day they dropped their “ROS” (rest of season) pass to $80. A regular adult ticket was $60 so for the extra $20 we snagged season passes for me an Nikki. The whole family went three times. Elias and I went on the last weekend and I […]

another day another ketchup post… Sorry again for doing these but I want to try to keep the kids shots more on time again this year. I’ve got a new camera (fuji X-T1) which required new software (LR5.4) as an excuse but I promise I’ll try to keep up better after this. This posts takes […]

Made it down to Fort Wetherill yesterday morning. This place has a LOT of potential and considering the fact it’s now <5 minutes from the house I’ll be going back frequently… Lots of great beach and rock access to explore. Here are a few shots:
