Fall_in_Baltimore

My camera has been on vacation : )

November 27, 2012 by fstopfun


I think being an artist is sometimes all or nothing. When I design graphics I always feel as if I am solving a problem. Finding a new way to publish a message or invoke a new feeling about something. I wish I could do that with my fine art like paintings, photography or poetry. Lately I think I need an adventure to revive my passion for photography. What do you do when you need to recharge your passion for fine art?

How long is 4 seconds?

September 26, 2012 by fstopfun


This summer I photographed more people then I typically do. I got used to telling people to meet me around 6:30. A few days ago I told my friend just that, so when we met I was shocked that in fall the days start getting shorter. Opps! So my shoot didn’t go well but I wanted to at least get a few pictures. I loathed the idea of coming back with nothing. It was well past sunset into the twilight time of […]

Artists are free to become stale and ineffective.

September 26, 2012 by fstopfun


I learned photography in high-school continued in college and then I graduated and of course I knew everything…. (or so I thought). A few years later I found my skills stagnant, my photographs were boring, and my desire to photograph was fleeting. I would see other artists works and be blown away! I remember attending a few different art openings of friends I graduated with and having the realization that I was obsolete, my friends have passed me by because they pushed themselves to continue […]

Shooting a dancer in broad daylight : )

September 6, 2012 by fstopfun


Good title huh? On Labor Day I had the pleasure of photographing an awesome dancer from Baltimore. It was a unique experience. The movement was fast and most of the time I said a prayer as I pressed the shutter. All in all I can’t wait to do it again!

Yesterdays Photo-shoot

September 1, 2012 by fstopfun


Love is a funny thing. Last night I had the pleasure of photographing a couple from my church. Photographers say the golden hour is the best time to shoot. I have to agree : ) Everything is so warm and rich. Times like these I am so thankful I have a collapsible white balance card. Here are a few of the pictures I took.

August 21, 2012 by fstopfun


Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away! You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own.  And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who’ll decide where to go.
