I finally got out to Brenton Cove for a sunrise. Why? Because I was asked to leave Castle Hill… Anyway, Brenton was actually a nice place to explore. I haven’t shot there before (for a sunrise/sunset at least) so it was nice to try something new. The sunrise angle was a bit far north for […]

My buddy Dave Simms and I made it out to Sachuest Sunday morning. He and I always have a good time shooting together, but this morning mother nature put on a great show with a pretty special sunrise we both enjoyed.

Made it down to Ledge Road this past weekend with Eric Gove from NSOP. It was SUPER low tide AND we were treated to a rad sunrise. Enjoy.

I’ve been shooting a lot lately but I’ve been getting behind on my posting! This posts covers about 2 weeks worth of (less than stellar) landscape sessions I’ve had. I’ve been to Castle Hill and Beavertail for sunrises. I’ve been out to the cape for a sunrise. I’ve also been to the Jamestown Windmill due […]

Made it out to my third straight day of the America’s Cup World Series here in Newport. This has been amazing to watch. These boats are amazing to watch, but to watch them sail in the exact water we race on every tuesday night is just amazing. They’re literally stored a 1/4 mile from where […]

I’ve been lucky enough to go watch both of the first two days of the America’s Cup World Series down in Newport this week. It’s amazing to see these boats race, they’re so fast and so close! New Zealand capsized around the weather mark yesterday right in front of us. They worked all night and […]

The America’s Cup World Series is in town. The containers rolled into town ~2 weeks ago and we’ve seen the village grow since then. Boat have been sailing starting this past week, but yesterday (Saturday) seems like it’s the first day they’ve all made it out on the water together. These boats are VERY impressive. […]

The RI Air National Guard air show is basically down the block from our house. So every year we go enjoy the show w/o the hassles of parking. Yes I’ve been to the actual show and it IS much better if you go, thanks to announcers and static displays we miss, but it’s also nice […]

I’m a bit late posting these. In fact the winners have already smashed the record over a day ago! The shot at the top is of Rambler, the new owner of the record at 39h 39m and 18s. I was lucky enough to get invited out on a boat this year by my friends Jamie […]

I made it up to New Hampshire Saturday morning with a few friends from NSOP to shoot the lupines. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a few years but never got around to. I’ve always know they were on “sugar hill” but we didn’t know much more beyond that and to watch for “sunset […]

In case you hadn’t noticed I’ve been shooting a lot of lighthouses lately… I’m working on a new site, lighthousesofri.com where I’ve shot all 21 of the lighthouses in Rhode Island. I’m putting together a guide & gallery where photographers can go to learn the best ways to shoot each light and people who appreciate […]

Made it down to Gooseberry for the first time this year. We had 4 NSOP guys there shooting and it was a great time. The light was great, but I always struggle with getting a good composition there. There are a LOT of rocks, but it’s making them work together for a strong composition that’s […]

Andy and I went to Enders last weekend. We both have waders this year so we’re able to access new parts of places we’ve been several times which is a lot of fun. For this trip it didn’t really get us access to anything new, it just made stream crossings a LOT easier -vs- finding […]

Sorry to put 3 landscape sessions into one post, but the Narragansett shoot was a washout light wise, total lifeless gray morning… Watch hill was a great morning, and so was Devil’s hopyard, but I’m working on producing less shots but keeping the quality higher overall, so one post seemed to make more sense. Enjoy.

Jen and Mike had a wonderful wedding and reception at Castle Hill. It was a bit foggy but the ceremony was still amazing out at the lighthouse itself (with the foghorn going). The reception was at the inn and the food was amazing. Congratulations Jen and Mike!
