A dam park – 4/13/19
I was getting into a rhythm, crawl through the workweek not wanting to be at work. Then Friday night hits and start researching local places to go and take pictures. Then go out on Saturday and do exactly that. This particular Saturday had me go to a park that was connected with a hydro plant.…

Lessons learned. Calligraphy product photoshoot – 4/1/19
As I mentioned in the previous post, I offered my “services” up to a good friend of my significant other and did a photoshoot of her side business. She does excellent calligraphy for special events, weddings, etc. I highly recommend checking her out on Instagram and her Etsy page. So I gathered up my gear…

And now for something completely different – 3/31/19
Towards the end of March I had another photoshoot upcoming, this time for a friend of my girlfriends who runs an Etsy shop doing some awesome calligraphy, cards and signs for weddings and special events. This was still a few days away, so I’ll talk more about that next post. But to prepare for this,…

Sometimes you don’t have to go far – 3/2/19
Luck. It’s one of those things I’ll openly scoff at right up until something happens that can only be explained as luck. I like to think you make your own luck, you’re the only person who can choose to do or not do things to lead you up to whatever moment you decide is lucky.…

Time for cosplay – 1/5/19
After a fair amount of theoretical planning. “We should totally do this” but without any details to actually do it. Finally I took the time to drive up to one of my sisters and we did a cosplay photoshoot day. She’s been making costumes for years and had a few locked and loaded that needed…

Time passes and the camera only got taken up to NC for Thanksgiving. Which I only used for a few minutes trying to get an image of smoke coming out of my dads smoker as we prepared brisket for the next day. (as it turns out, brisket is a few hours to smoke not a…

I like turtles – 10/11/18
Apparently I got real busy outside of photography and didn’t touch my camera for a while. Probably switched back to playing video games. I usually only get really invested into a hobby for short time, long enough to dump a good amount of money into it before moving on. Thankfully photography has become a lot…

That’s no moon… – 7/27/18
Actually it is a moon. The moon, our only moon. And on the evening of the 27th I grabbed both of my cameras now and went back to the field I found near my apartment a few days before. I must have planned this a bit because looking at a lunar calendar for 2018, the…

A new camera body – 7/17/18
July 17th 2018. The day everything changed when the fire nation attacked. Well not really, since it would be about a week before it arrived. But for $499 and about 6 bucks for shipping, I had made my first big photography purchase in my opinion. The months and weeks leading up to this purchase would…

A trip to the Atlanta Zoo – 7/3/18
Now we’re getting somewhere. That place is downtown Atlanta to the zoo, and of course. I brought my camera. This was an amazing and bittersweet experience. Getting this close to animals is highly unlikely for me in the nearby future. Especially while I maintain a 40 hour a week job. Can’t just drop everything to…
