Quick Update: Golf w/ Meathead Films

For the first time ever, I went golfing...with Meathead Films. Always a good time:

MY FIRST (ski) PHOTO

Recently I've been updating my library of images. It's a process to say the least and I'm finding that I wish I had done things differently at the start (read: add keywords!). However, it has presented me the chance to take a look back at the photos I've shot in the past and see how much I've (hopefully) grown as a photographer. In doing so, I've stumbled across one of the first shots that I took of a skier. It was my first time photographing anything outside of family snapshots with a disposable kodak and was certainly a point that I decided I wanted to keep getting better at it.

And of course, being an amateur at the time, I didn't save the negatives so this chopped up jpeg sitting on one of my hard drives is the only copy. While not a great image, it is my first.

Photos...

Here's a few photos, some recent:

Facebook, Twitter and Updates...Oh My?

I've returned from a relaxing weekend on Nantucket despite the hectic nature of Figawi. For my second trip to the island, both of which were during the Figawi yacht race, it was nice to slip away from the crowds in the center of town and explore the periphery; enjoying a more even pace of surfing (despite the lack of waves) and skateboarding (despite my non-skateboarding) and great food & friends.

Here's a few pictures from the weekend (more to come!):

Speaking of content, you'll find a new/full gallery of images from my shoot with Lunchbox at a house party in Boston. You'll find that here.

TO: Nantucket

I'm heading to Nantucket for the weekend where it'll certainly be a fun time catching up with a longtime friend and his girlfriend who moved there 2 years ago to work year round on the New England tourist hub.This will be my second time I've headed to the small island for Memorial Day where the annual Figawi race takes place between Hyannis & Nantucket. Already known for its high society, Nantucket will certainy be overrun with Vineyard Vines & Lily Pulitzer; its always a sight. Don't believe me? Here's last year:
In other news, I've been working on processing a few of the photos from the past weekend where I was down in Boston shooting the cover band "Lunchbox." Here's a group shot (more to come after I'm back on the mainland):

What's in your Lunchbox?

This past weekend I was down in Boston shooting at a party where the cover band "Lunchbox" was performing. They've got a killer selection of alternative covers ranging from Weezer to Kings of Leon. The picture above is a screenshot of my desktop which features a few photos of frontman Matt Koelsch. Check out his current music project at Bean City Syndicate.

Surf's Up.

Forgive the horrible cliché of a title but it's a bit late to be witty at the time of this post. I was asked to submit a couple of surf and skate photos for a potential project recently and I thought I'd include them here. You can check them out as an online gallery here:

Enjoy!
