    I decided to take some pictures of all the water/rain on the way home tonight.  The side of 95 south was flooded from rt. 10 all the way down to the 295 merge.  Once off the highway onto Division street I clanked a MAJOR pothole coming down the hill that was covered by a massive…

    Went out and shot the sunrise for the first time in what felt like a long time this weekend.  We decided on hulls cover which is nice as it’s closer to home.  But mother nature didn’t help much and the light was just much too bright to bring home anything amazing.  Will Dave and Eric…

    Well it’s been a long couple of weeks with my trip to Texas and Elias getting his tubes done on Tuesday morning, but this weekend was a great weekend.  Saturday we finally got up to Boston Aquarium with my parents and Elias.  Elias loves Finding Nemo so my dad had thought of taking him there…

    Rebecca was the last model I shot on Saturday’s studio session.  She was cracking up because I was shooting at the same time as one of the other guys and she noticed and smiled for me…  I said “don’t look at meeeeeeeee!” and we both cracked up!  I know I probably said this about all…

    Alexa was the second model I shot down in houston, but also the model I shot the most while there.  I think I felt a bit more relaxed with her because she was a bit more comical while shooting.  It’s not that the other models weren’t great, it’s just that Alexa is a goofball and…

    Kyra was one of the last models I shot on Saturday during our Texas studio session.  She’s gorgeous which makes it hard to take a bad image of her but I’m afraid I didn’t do her justice.  I’m still getting the hang of posing and light placement in the studio and these were all shot…

    Went down to Texas for a weekend studio session.  Studio isn’t really my thing, or so I thought, but I actually had a ton of fun.  It’s weird because I’m normally not shy but when I start shooting people I don’t like telling them what to do…  Luckily for me Shawna knew what she was…

    Well I just got home from a weekend away in Texas.  My photo forum had a group studio shoot that I mentioned I’d like to go to.  One of our members works for JetBlue and got us dirt cheap tickets to go down Friday and return today.  We slept on couches and had an amazing…

    Picked up an amnova softbox this week.  They have a deal site where they sell one thing at a time for super cheap, this box is normally $60 and I picked it up for $22.  Not only that but they’re in MA so it was overnight shipping for the normal ground rate.  It’s actually a…

    Dave and I went down to Ledge Road this morning in the rain in Newport.  It’s supposed to rain all weekend so we basically just went on a scouting mission but it was decent enough to grab a few shots.  I couldn’t really use filters as they got wet too quick and “drying” them left…

    I got to shoot Sakonnet again this past weekend.  It’s a location I can’t shoot in the summer due to a private beach club, so I take advantage of any opportunity I can get to go there.  Nikki and I stayed overnight at her parents over the weekend, so it was <30 minutes to get there which…

    Made it out to Black Point for the sunrise Sunday morning.  I actually slept in a bit (I set 2 alarms, the second saved me) and missed the twilight shooting which I tend to prefer.  The sunrise itself was pretty uneventful, but when the sun poked through the clouds about 15 minutes later Andy and…
