Fashionistas
My wife is slowly teaching me what it means to be well dressed. Thus far I've learned: shoes and belt color should match, and denim does not go with MORE denim. During this little impromptu photo session with Lyn (wife) and Kallie (friend), I also learned that with you can never have too many layers. This is true in Photoshop, too. I'm all about the layers. I usually make a new layer for every step in the edit. Healing brush, dodge and burn, sharpening, curves - each major step lives on its own layer. And I always keep the original layer in the stack, too. That way I can go back if ...

Spider on White – Macro
Canon 100mm Macro + Red One. Yes, I hate these things too, but I love to hate them. Working with this guy for about an hour emptied my adrenal glands.

Good, now you look like a tourist. Chances are your camera is hanging somewhere near your stomach. You'll probably want to shorten up the camera strap so that the camera hangs over your chest. Unless your tummy is sporting a six pack (I've got a six pack IN my ...

Portland Cyclocross
I shot this footage last December at the US Grand Prix of Cyclocross in Portland, Oregon. My buddy Chris was racing and I figured this would be a great way to try out the new Birger mount. After shooting for about a year with only the Red 18-50mm, it was pretty liberating to start shooting with some different focal lengths via Birger and EOS glass. This footage has been sitting on my hard drive for the last 8 months and I finally got around to editing some clips together. This is not meant to be anything more than a camera test so don't look too closely for ...
