Boston on a Sunday afternoon

I was needing some ME time so I went into Boston today to take some images of Financial District.  One good thing about the recession, no security guards to worry about.  :)

 

Vacation week

This week I have been on vacation and enjoying everyday day of it.  I have been getting a lot of things done around the house, renewed my website, walked around Boston taking pretty pictures, and went to Constant Contact to learn about email marketing.

 Here are some of the pretty pictures that I took while walking around Boston.

   



 

 

I wish the light was just a little better but I am pretty happy with the results.

New website

After a lot of soul-searching and exchanges of emails of a photography friend, I have decided to rework my website and focus on my stronger images.  When I finished photography school, I had a portfolio review by Jim Fitts and he told me my strongest images are of fine art work.  I was a little resistant to make this my only focus but after looking back at what I have been doing on my free time and the work that I have produced from it, i cannot argue any longer.

       I am also going to be focusing on my wide-angle portraits.  I am still amazed by the work of Platon.  My final project at school was a series of them that were just amazing. 

      This weekend I will be cleaning and backing up hard drives and selecting images for my new website.  I was going to wait until my ad on the knot but why bother.

     I will be still willing to do weddings providing I can use my style for the bride's wedding.

     I will leave you with my favorite image from my recent trip to Atlanta.

images from my trip to Atlanta

I have my images from my trip to Atlanta posted on my Facebook page.  Please take a look and let me know what you think.   I really enjoy this type of photography and wish I could spend more time focusing on this.

Studio Management Services (SMS) in Atlanta

I just got back from a 2 day workshop in Atlanta that PPA sponsored.  It taught me a lot.  (A mean a lot)  I learned how to better market my business and learn how to deal with customers.  I am going to have to digest everything in the next day or two and rework everything.

    I was able to take a lot of nice fine art photography images while I was there.  (Images will be posted by the end of the week.) 

    I will also be posting some images of my wife's stay in the hospital and Halloween.

more images from our trip to NY

These first two images are of the Strong National Museum of Play.  The hotel were wse stayed gave us free passes.  Carin had so much fun.  (It is the perfect place for a hyper-active kid to go) 

 

 





That afternoon, we went to the cemetery to see Tiffany's family plot.  (plus I did some scoping and found this cross that was screaming to be photographed.)

 

 

 

 

 



 

 



Two more images from my hike around Rochester. 

 



An old restaurant that Tiffany's family use to love. They are now closed.  (Otherwise we would have had chinese atleast twice while out ther)



And no trip to Rochester would be complete without a trip to Parkleigh

Rochester, NY

My family just got back from a long weekend in Rochester , NY.  It was a very nice weekend and we enjoyed it a lot.  My wife got to see some old friends that she has not seen in years. 

   I did get a chance to take some personal images while I was there and here are my two favorite so far.
