It’s been another fun week in the Jacobsen house. I didn’t realize there wasn’t sailing Monday night so we all went down to my parents house for Dinner. That was great. Elias has been working on his potty training all week with some success, but Nikki really made progress with him Saturday while I was […]

Just got back from Limerock shooting ALMS. Wow. WOW! Loved it. It’s a bit of a drive (3 hours each way) and a long day on your feet, but it’s soooooo worth it if you’re a car guy. Seeing these things up close is amazing, then seeing them race is just incredible. VERY loud, […]

I’m getting reading for ALMS this weekend at limerock. I’ve always been a fan of cars, and when it comes to racing there are 2 series I like, WRC (Rally) and ALMS (LeMans). Well ALMS races an american circuit every year and one stop is in CT (near where I grew up). I made it […]

Went down and shot the beach this morning. The sunrise wasn’t spectacular but it was still worth shooting. On the way home I also stopped by the nest at the bridge and got a shot of the owners. I was surprised to see three at first, then the 4th showed up!

Went out to Ledge Road this morning. The weather was forecast to be raining on and off and it had rained all night, but I caught a break there. Then driving over the Newport Bridge it was quite foggy which made me wonder what I’d get, but somehow there wasn’t any fog on the ocean […]

Went to Sachuest this morning for the sunrise. The light was awesome for once, but the bugs were miserable… I forgot long pants and there was zero wind, so I go eaten for as long as I could bear it then packed up and came home early. It was still fun and I probably got […]

Got to get out and shoot another sunrise with the guys this weekend. We went to black point which is always interesting for me. I’m not comfortable there in terms of finding great compositions, but I usually find a few that work alright. Sunday was no different. The light was a bit weird too, not […]

Went to Newton with the NSOP guys this morning. The sunrise was OK, with the thunder storms in the area it had potential but it didn’t turn out as epic as we’d hoped. It was still fun though and we had 5 guys this morning which is a lot for our group.

Got out to Sachuest again this morning. The sunrise was OK, it looked great, but it was DR hell… I played with the moon and the rad foregrounds and periwinkles instead, keeping the sun at my back. Two of the NSOP guys were there with me as well, and we actually went running afterwards!

Andy and I went out to Enders this past weekend. It was my first sunrise shoot since vacation and it was a lot of fun. Andy’s always trying to get me out there but it’s 2 hours west of me, that means earlier alarms and longer away from the house after the shoot, but I […]

I got a call from the Behan Brothers about a month ago to shoot a recent build of theirs down at Carnegie Abbey. This is an amazing house that overlooks the bay. Enjoy.

We managed to get away for a week and head down to Antigua to visit my parents (they keep their boat there all winter). I took a hike from the fort in English Harbor up over to Pigeon beach and had some fun time with the camera. Enjoy!

Went out with the forum guys on Saturday AM. We were treated to a great sunrise and low tide which gave us some great shooting options. I love the exposed rocks and weeds thanks to the tide. The full moon was also out which added a nice bonus before the sun came up.

Got to go down to the pub today to grab some shots of the Banquet room in use. It’s a great space with tons of natural light. The food and setup looks amazing and of course, they fed me! Click here to download the images.
