Stenciling and You (Video)
Here is my first serious attempt at video. As I mentioned previously, the pool thing was more of a a general test to try out the camera, microphone and editing software. I spent considerably more time working on this one which is about Kevin O’Brien, a student at UGA who stencils for fun and now [...]
Summer Time
Shot some stand alones at a local pool which opened for the summer today for the Banner Herald. Lifeguard Brittany Byers watches over the deep end of the Bishop Park pool Saturday afternoon as kids jump off the diving boards.
Burning down the (club)house
Got a call this afternoon while I was shooting stand-alones for the Banner Herald asking if I could shoot some photos of the club house at Jennings Mill Country Club which had burnt down in the morning. Pat Hutto, left, and Ryan Clingin, right, remove some of the items that survived the fire from the [...]
Vih-de-oh
I recently purchased a Canon FS 100 video camera based on some research I did. I got it primarily though because of a) its small form factor and b) it uses SD card memory as opposed to miniDV tape. There are many advantages to part b. The first being that I don’t have to capture [...]
Brav(es)ing the Weather
Today some friends and I ventured down to Atlanta to catch the Braves game and later on see the laser show at Stone Mountain. Given that these two things occur outside, I naturally checked the weather before I left. The forecast wasn’t good, but earlier i had checked out the radar and couldn’t see clouds [...]
Joshua Fields, savior of UGA Baseball
I was asked on Wednesday to shoot a portrait of this UGA baseball player. I had some ideas for portraits that were more creative, but when it started raining it became more a matter of trying to make sure the equipment I was using didn’t get fried so I went with something more standard. Georgia [...]
The Anniston Star
Newseum.org is a website that posts the front pages of most major newspapers in the United States and some abroad. Yesterday I checked to see the Anniston Star’s front page to see if they used those photos of the Tornado I took (here). Anyways, here is the front page of yesterday’s paper. Click the image [...]
Tornado in Heflin, Ala.
Today I drove down to Anniston, Ala., for an interview for an internship they offer. On the way there I got a call from them asking if I could shoot a follow up one of their writers was doing about the tornadoes that had gone through a nearby city on Sunday. They specifically wanted photos [...]
Faery Fest and the Comer Farmers Market
The other week I shot a “faery festival” (that is how it was spelled). It ran in today’s Madison section of the Banner-Herald. While I was in Comer, I also shot the farmer’s market that was going on next door. Here are my favorite photos from the shoot. The faery festival photos don’t necessarily represent [...]
The Espadrilles
During the human rights festival I shot last week I was also asked to shoot a band that was playing called The Espadrilles. The story ran the other day so I figured I’d link it here. The photos aren’t anything super special so I’ll save myself the trouble of reposting them. The link is there [...]
