Last week the band , These Last Few invited me to come shoot photos of them practicing. I think it is important during the planning of a band’s promo shoot to sit in a practice or live session. This way you get a feel for who they are as a band and how to correctly portray them in their promos.

Finally! Spring is here! On Saturday, the boys and I went out to take advantage of the nice weather we were having here in Ohio.

This is how J.B. looked when we met up with him. Beaten by a couple guys on St. Patrick’s Day. If you recall this post, you will see this happens to him a lot!

Finally got around to shooting something that has been in my head for a while.

Kristie and I went to a local park where it would be extremely dark so that I could do some painting with light. I used my strobe to paint in areas of light from the right side of the frame. Each tree was lit separately but the shutter remained open for the entire shot.

After I started to get what I was looking for, a cop pulled into the park and wanted to know what was going on. He checked our ID’s and agreed to let us finish. He even waited in the parking lot, just in case another cop came by to kick us out.

After a few minutes of running blindly through the woods with my flash, we finally got the shot. We plan to print a 30×50 of it and hang it in our living room.

I just discovered thisMoment.com, and I think it will be a great way to share my photo series through the various social sites.

Here is one from a CareFlight shoot I did last year:
