Made it out to Devil’s Hopyard this past weekend for another sunrise. It was supposed to snow 4~6″ the night before and into the morning but we only had a dusting. It was still snowing the entire time we were there. I also recently picked up some waders for shooting in places like this and […]

Sorry, it’s been a while since I’ve had a family update. I’ve been super busy. I’m no longer at C&J and have been working as hard as I can getting NSOP and BJP in order a bit more to hopefully make a go at being a full time photographer. So my mornings have been filled […]

Dave and I tried to make it to Tuckerman’s again this past weekend. The weather was terrible (100+ MPH winds at the summit) and the avalanche conditions were even worse thanks to the rain that came Friday then froze on the surface. We still hiked up a bit (I skinned, he hiked) before officially […]

I got out shooting with Andy and Dave from NSOP last weekend. We hit up Big River during a snow storm. It was a great morning and one that proved to me that I need waders… The path here goes up the opposite side of the river. To cross we had to go all the […]

First week back from vacation… Weather feels more like winter now which is nice. We got quite a bit of snow this weekend which was awesome. We didn’t really need to go anywhere (although I went to Newport for a client meeting) so we could enjoy it w/o sitting in rush hour during it… But […]

We were lucky enough to get to go visit my parents in the Bahamas last week. The entire family flew down which was not as bad as you’d think. Isabella was a doll in Elias’ car seat the entire time, even napping at her normal times. Elias did well also, but keeping a 3y/o entertained […]

This post is a few weeks late. I’ve been super busy lately, then we were away (from computers) for vacation visiting my parents on the boat. So I’m just now getting to posting our last shots from 2011/Xmas. We had a great Christmas with Nikki’s family here in RI. I also managed to get out […]

Been shooting a bit since I got back from the delivery w/o much time to post. Sorry for the mass post, but I felt it was better to wrap up 2011 with ONE good post instead of three lesser posts from 3 different locations all at once… The first few part of this set is […]

This review is meant to be a bit of an introduction to tripods as well as a review of three Oben tripod kits. It has some tips on what to look for when shopping, what features you might want or “need” and to help guide you to making the right choice in your next (or […]

While in the Bahamas after the trip south, I was able to shoot both the sunset the day we arrived and the sunrise the next morning (before I left). Leo and Peter were nice enough to come with me, which was crucial as you really need to pay attention to get the dinghy in and […]

Sorry I haven’t posted much in the last few weeks. I’ve been slammed with work and holiday priorities, then I got to get away and sail avalanche to the Bahamas (that post is coming right after this one). Isabella has been struggling though a cold for a few weeks now. She’s getting much better and […]

yeah, but still not enough to ski… Dave and I went up to Tuckermans Ravine Saturday the 10th. We had great plans of an epic sunrise over the ravine as well as hermit lake. We left RI at midnight and Dave drove us “through the night” getting there at 4am. We then hiked in in […]

The f-stop loka is a hell of a backpack. That’s ignoring it’s ability to haul cameras. This is just one hell of a great backpack first, then it has this awesome system to add inserts into it specifically designed for cameras (f-stop calls these “ICU”s or internal camera units). I’ll get to that more in […]
