The ledge...

Here's a little teaser from an ongoing series i am putting together called "The ledge"
it's basically a fun challenge for me in terms of perspective and post production. Gives some pretty fun results. not to worry all my friends have made it home safe after the shoots (so far:)

This is my good buddy Jordan. it's all about trust!!

That's Roderick sitting on the ledge. "taking'r easy..."

Not quite the Serengeti but it will do for today...:)

RAW images - Corruption or digital art?!?

Shooting a personal project. came back to head quarters to take a look at my images from today and i had one shot that was a little "out of it". i'm guessing some of the zero's and one's had some trouble getting out of bed that morning...
just wanted to share.

All other 215 shots loaded fine on the card. That's an 8mm lens on a boom looking over a lege. stay tuned for some of the final results!

Photo of le week...

Taken right before the first snow storm. That's my good buddy El'Rey hanging around in front of Place Ville Marie (PVM) in Montreal. Upon further investigation (a la google...) I can also go on to tell you that PVM was completed in 1962, contains 13,054 windows, 317,000 sprinkler heads and boasts 53 postal codes. Aslo, PVM requires 65 million kWh per year. The equivalent would supply 3000 single family homes with power for a year..."Hit a few switches on your way out of the office guys". Never the less a fun vertical 360 and a good way not to be in (every) shot taken with the Lomo360.

we are now a few feet under snow...damn.








Here are a couple more fun verticals. That's Adam crossing the street in nyc. He runs marketing and design company called 100proof check'em out. and that's yours truly on a shoot in Santa Barbara CA.

I was finally able to get some scans done this weekend. Here's a crew shot (with champagne) on location in Santa Barbara CA.
Taken with a Lomo 360 cam. If you don't have one of these bad boys yet. I would put it on your Chrismakah list. Shooting film is a good time. how soon we forget...

my 30th...

So i hummed and hawd for a while as to what to do for my 30th Birthday. Finally i decided to book a chalet up north on a lake and have some of my closest friends come and join me for the weekend. The only real favor that i asked in return was that they help me build a potato gun. So that was our homework on the Friday night (along with enjoying a few drinks;)
The result? Many potatoes spent that Saturday and Sunday traveling at very high speeds and substantially long distance...:)

Also put together a quick portrait series with the Potato gun in "question". Fun!

 

HOW TO...

The potato canon specs...important stuff for a 30th birthday party:)

Hung out with da'boyz from Red October today.

Got some great shots just outside the studio (here's a sneak peak). If you like it heavy. check these hombres out.Red October
