multi-cart falling apart


My multi-cart is falling apart ...... I cruised around downtown Wake Forest with some equipment on my multi-cart ( 3 lightware cases , 1 Tenba case and a Versa Flex big stand bag ) and the rubber on the wheel came off. My wife calls me a cheap bastard, I like to think I'm thrifty. This is the mid level Multi-cart R6, I haven't put much wear and tear on it, so I'm alittle disappointed the rubber came off the wheel. If your looking for an equipment cart move up to the R8,10 or 12.

Some more shots from the small town article on Wake Forest. Got to see how the other half lives. A combination of Profoto and AB for kicker lights. Had a good time at Short'y , where Arnold Palmer use to eat hot dogs.

Pharmaceutical


Some shots for a large pharmaceutical company. Shot in model home, prices starting in the low $300K, not part of my reality. It's always tough shooting stills and motion on the same day, but a big thanks to Mark and his crew for making my life alot easier. Set up some portraits upstairs in the bonus room, the flash was not a problem when filming was going on, but the beep from my Profoto 600 pack was ( there is not an on/off switch for the sound on this pack .... What's up with that,and the door had been taken off the bonus room ??? ). Guess I learned the hard way. The models were great out of DC and Atlanta. Everyone got great stuff and left happy.
