Emulation



This is an image I shot for my emulation assignment for lighting. I think this is going to become the basis for my final project for the class. The top one is mine and the bottom is the guy I was attempting to emulate, his name is Aaron Kolowski and he is an RIT grad who lives in Connecticut.

New Vertical Pan



So I went up Hyalite canyon south of Bozeman today at dusk to shoot some more vertical panoramics. I didn't have much luck... but I love this one. Unfortunately it is a little fuzzy when you get it really big so I need to reshoot it with a bit more light, but I am going back up there tomorrow and will hopefully get many more superb images.

Glass




These are a couple of images I made for my lighting class of glass. I did these in my kitchen by simply surrounding them with white foam core and matte board and lighting the back panel. Then we drank wine out of the glasses. Good times.

it's been a while

I figured the 1st of the month was a good time to start fresh. I got sick about three weeks ago and so I kind of stopped posting and then I was busy catching up on work I was behind on. I have changed a few things since the last time I posted. My final project for advanced lighting class is now going to consist of photographs of my roommates as fictional characters dressed up in mostly homemade costumes. I should have some examples of this within a week or two, but I am pretty excited about it. I'm working on a few assignments today, so I will post some shots from that later or tomorrow.

Environmental portraits


I think this is going to be part of my final project for advanced lighting class, this is Albert Mcdonald the general manager at Aleworks (my boss). Used one Alien Bee light, 400W mostly just for fill.

Sister


This is from back in August, but it's what I was working on today. I shot my sister's senior pictures and I think they came out pretty well.

Ben...need I say more?


So I photographed my roommate today at the Museum of the Rockies (where he works) for an assignment for my advanced lighting class. The assignment was to do an environmental portrait and this is as accurate a portrait of Ben as you will ever see.

Vertical Panoramics




So here are my favorites from my senior project so far...
The colors are a little off, but you can get the idea

New Blog


So I decided it was time that I set up some way for friends, family and prospective clients or employers to view my photographic work online. That is why I created this blog, and I hope that in doing so I do not completely ruin my life...

Might as well cut to the chase, photos. This first one is a night shot from Fairy Lake in the Bridger Mountains north of Bozeman, MT a few weeks ago. 2 1/2 minute exposure at f/5, got some nice star trails and a bright tree thanks to the full moon.
