Some People Action

People are the greatest gift to all. Everyone is different. Everyone smiles, laughs, cries, ect. . . different. And that is why we all enjoy it. Taking photos of people is one of the things I most enjoy about photography because I can see everything as a picture. So when I see someone smiling, I want to capture that moment and digitally document it. When people ask to have photos done for them it is a blessing because it is a blast for me to interact with the person, my camera, and I. Portraiture is fun, let's leave it at that. Here are some photos of people that I have shot for senior photos or for fun:

Those are them, thanks a lot for viewing them, comments are greatly appreciated.

Black and White is all I see

Weather has kinda been bland here in CDA, and I like it. I hate hot weather cause 1) I can't ride my bike with out practically dying of a heat stroke and 2) It makes me tired. I am really looking forward to fall and winter this year cause the cool weather has reminded me of the great colors in the fall and yes I enjoy those. With this more gloomy weather I have been reminded of just black and white. It seems to be all that my eye sees. My eye could also mean my camera? Yes, I think so. I like Black and White photo's because I think that they kinda share a story behind them more than others. They kind of make you decipher a story behind the darkness. But sometimes behind darkness there is light. All of these photo's have a story behind them. I am going through a hard time in my life right now trying to choose between friendships and trying my hardest to keep my relationship with God strong but I see through all this darkness and see the lighter side of it. This weather got me motivated to share my story through a picture. I would like to see if you can see my story through these photos. Please share your feedback with me, it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for viewing my blog,

Fixed gears, portraits, and a board huck.

It's summer, give me a break. I'm photoing a ton, but I'm just not updating my blog every day or other day. So last weekend was the skate olympics! woohoo! great fun at Merit Boardshop. I got there kind of late but in time for the best event, THE BOARD HUCK! Yeah!! Got some shots of that. While I was there, one other fixed gear rider besides me was there so I got some pictures of ZackBlack. So here are some shot's of last weekend:

Well, that is all. Im going to try to get another post in sometime this week so just keep checking.

East Cost

Finally after a few days of being home I have edited all the Blog-Worthy photos. When I was back east my family and I accomplished a ton photography. I experienced thing's that I will never forget. One of my more favorite things was seeing a Brodway Show in New York. Well It has been a long time since my last blog post so there is going to be a ton of photos. Usually I like to keep it a small amount, but it was a big trip so I have to exceed my minimal amount as I usually do. (something cool is I got a complaint from someone that I don't even know asking when I was going to write up a new blog post. SUPER LEGIT, I was pumped) Anyway's on to the photos. There are a ton so just look at them please. Ok so if the photos are kinda messed up it is because I'm too lazy to create a new action in PS that will resize the photos to the right size

so click on the photos if you are really die-hard to view them.

That's it people. Hey I'm in the process of making a new website so I will retire from blogger.

I'll keep you posted on how thats going.

Alright, thanks for viewing.
