In Print The Scientist Magazine


Shot that made it to print from a recent shoot at Duke.

shooting at an agency


You never know what your going to see shooting around an agency. I'll have to go back when the Wild Irish Rose bar is open.

Rockett, Burkhead & Winslow auction


Always sad to see an agency go under. RB&W had about 80 employees and filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy. They did some really nice work, I never had a chance to work with them. Thought I might pick up a cheap Mac with Final Cut, no such luck, I can get a better deal on CraigsList. I didn't need anything but bought some work station tables, I have no idea where I'm putting them but they were so cool and so cheap. You got what was on the tables when you bought them I got a tape dispenser, post it notes and this framed "Agency Purpose and Charter".

Going Green


Another insane turn around. Shot this over Memorial weekend and will probably go to print on Tue. A new Condominium development in Chapel Hill Greenbridge only problem is it's still under construction. We shot some images in the show room and some details of finishes.

location test


Some scale testing on location for an up coming shoot. Check back for the final shot.

strawberry picking and last day of school


I take a ton of photo's of my kids but never post them, to many creepy people out there ....... I'm always torn when hanging out with my kids if I should take my camera or not. If I have a camera I'm in photo mode and tend not to enjoy the moment. Stand over here,look this way Blah..blah...blah..... I think I've found a good balance. Some shots from picking strawberries and my youngest last day of school.

3 day location catalog


I am silly tired .... 3 days of shooting a catalog on location, up at 5AM and home @ 7:30 PM. We shot in a warehouse in Hillsborough NC about 50 miles from the studio. All the merchandise was there and if any defects we could pull new stock.
Anything you can out a UNC logo on. This year we tried something different with or mannequin Avery, so not all the clothing shots were lay downs. It gave some of the garment a real nice shape. Hope the Canes and Penns don't go to overtime tonight, don't think I'd make it.
