I'm not sure if you guys remember this but a few months back I submitted some images for the "a million little pictures" project. It's really a neat project that helps out some good causes.
Check out this link to see the show and get some more info for up coming group projects.
Here are some of my images for the project mind you these were all shot with a disposable camera but I kind of like the randomness of the images.
I dropped some "super 8" PRO ACTION on these, for a little extra pizazz :)

Are you about to buy a power mac, iphone, imac or any other mac product ?
Be sure to check out this site my friend Jim showed me quite a while ago MacRumors.com. The site is loaded with basically every news clip, photo or rumor involving new mac products that they can find on the web. I have found their "Buyer guide" page to be very helpful. This page shows a break down of the product cycles for all mac hardware and gives you a recommendation if you should buy or not. It's supper helpful when your making a big purchase and are not sure if the product with be updated soon. I just found out the new version of the iphone may be coming out in the states as soon as June so I'm holding out for a little longer.

As I stated in my birthday post I love the smell of jasmine. I'm not sure what it is about that plant. I think it reminds me of vacations or something but for whatever reason just love the fragrance.
So today I was in a gardening store picking out some plants for the front of my house and I saw this large jasmine plant and I just had to have it. I'm sure it will die in like a month but for now my entire downstairs smells like Disney world :)


You should have seen me driving with this plant half sicking out my sunroof , quite a site I'm sure :)
Now I need a fancy pot for this guy, that black plastic thing isn't going to cut it...
By the way this is a Star Jasmine plant not a Jasmine Star plant :)

2008 NFL Draft
Here are some images from the NFL draft a few weeks back. I have been busy moving all my old PC files to my new Mac this week so this NFL post is a bit delayed...
After visiting SI photographer David Bergman blog and seeing his awesome images from the event I felt I had to post mine today, so I don't look too lazy :)

The NFL had me shooting a few more event this year. They added a press and a fan day to my shooting schedule. Here are a few images from those events. I have a ton more images to post but I still have to get my old PC up and running again before I can post those. For now enjoy these select few!

Matt Ryan couldn't get off the Radio city marquee fast enough, apparently he is not a big fan of heights, can't say I blame him :)

Wedding: Vienna Austria!!!

While Carla and I where out in Vienna giving our workshop we got the opportunity to shoot a wedding with my buddy Wolfgang! They do things a little bit differently out there and we didn't get a chance to shoot bride getting ready or even the reception! On the other hand we did have the most access during a ceremony that I have ever witnessed. In the state at times it can be a roll of the dice to see if I can even come with in a hundred yards of the bride and groom during the ceremony. In Austria the officiants during the ceremony will literally move out the way of ask I if you would like to get closer! It was a bit strange and took some getting used to. Will say I got some angles during the ceremony that would never even attempt to get here in the states.


This next one is one of those angles I may never get until my next wedding in Vienna. For you photofolks out there this was shot with a 35mm. So you can only imagine how close I was :)


Here is a photo Carla took of me getting right in the action.


At the same time that Carla grabed that above photo of me I got this photo of the bride... I just love the look on her face in shot. She had the best little grin it made me smile :)


I could have photographed this little guy all day





I mean come on how cute is this kid!
