My sister was nice enough to fly me out to visit last week. I had a blast. I got to ski Park City with Jess, Ben and Jess’ boss Monday. Tuesday I got to fly with Ben in chopper 5, then Jess got both her knees done. She proceeded to kick us both out of…

Happy Easter!
Happy Easter everyone. We had a great weekend. Today we went to the Stinton’s for Easter “brunch”/dinner. Yesterday we were at the Welby’s for lunch and an awesome easter egg hunt. Then we were off to my parents house for Easter dinner there. The kids have had their sugar intake for the next few months,…

Point Judith 4.7.2012
Went down to Point Judith Saturday morning to grab another lighthouse. Sky was pretty much bluebird, but I grabbed one good shot of the lighthouse before the sun came up. The full moon set behind was also amazing to watch. Enjoy.

Tuckerman’s revisit…
I think I’m hooked. I left the house at 10pm last night, drove to pinkham notch, slept in the parking lot for a few hours then hit the trail at 5am in hopes of bagging a sunrise over the ravine. Yeah, mother nature had other ideas….. but I still went for a great hike! …

Happy Birthday Bella!!!
Isabella is one today. Actually, it’s in just about an hour now… What a year it’s been. She’s changed our lives and in such a good way. Yes it’s more hectic and crazy at times, but she’s so worth it! Nikki’s got her mini her in Bella just like I have one in Elias now.…

Wachusett!!!
Well, Elias is quickly getting hooked… I took him skiing the first time this season the week before his third birthday (you can see that here). We then went to Wachusett the weekend after his Bday, and I’d added 2 tricks/tools to the bag… I picked up some edgie wedgies (those things that connect…

Canon 5D Mark III!
The 5D mark III is finally here. People have been wondering what this camera would be for the last ~3 years… Canon announced the camera in early March with some interesting specifications. The MP haven’t changed much, they’ve gone from 21mp to 22mp. But what has changed is the speed of the camera. The FPS…

Watch Hill Lighthouse 3.18.2012
Made it down to Watch Hill for a pretty amazing sunrise shoot. This is one of those shoots were I’m glad I don’t listen to the weather reports and I just go no-matter-what… Some fellow shooters told me afterwards that the forecast was for fog. And I DID see a bunch of fog on my…

Sakonnet 3.10.2012
Bryan and I headed down to Sakonnet this morning and froze our tails off. It wasn’t too cold, but it was blowing almost 20 and with the humidity it all made it quite brisk. I just wish I hadn’t left the gloves in the car… This is one of the 21 lighthouses in RI, I’m trying to…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELIAS!!!
Wow, Elias is FOUR already? Happy birthday little dude. I can’t believe it. So, for his birthday we did a few fun things. First off, to make sure he skied when he “was three” I took him to yawgoo to go skiing a few days before his birthday. We had a BLAST. One run on…

IJJ Update 35
Well, Isabella can now pull herself up using the crib or couch or just about anything else. She’s getting VERY mobile in a hurry. Still no teeth (and she’s exactly 11 months old as I type this). We keep thinking they’re coming, but nothing yet. Elias is quickly approaching his 4th birthday. We’re all…

Plum Beach Light and some extras!
Been a busy few days. Since I’m trying to make photography my full time gig now, I’m trying to get more shots of a lot of the landmarks in Rhode Island. It’s been pointed out to me that a lot of my shots are very similar in that they’ve got “water ‘n rocks” w/o much…
