Square business card

We need a new business card so this is going to be our cover of our new business card. We thought we would go with something different so we opted for a swaure business card. Hopefully the customers will dig it!

Tamarack Lodge in Mammoth Lakes

We went to the Tamarack Lodge in Mammoth Lakes this last weekend while we were up there for a snowboard trip with all my family. In this picture it's me and my cousin Jenee sportin a great pose lol. My wife took the shot as we were standing on a bridge over a partially frozen lake. It was so incredibly beautiful there and if you haven't been there before I highly recommend it.

Latest Wedding

Here is a photo from last weekend's wedding. It was so much fun! There was this big red barn which we've always wanted for photos so it definitely was a treat to work there.

Thailand

I was looking through some old photos of Erica and I in Thailand to post on Facebook and loved this photo so much I had to put it in even though it's a little bit older. Hope you all like and if you haven't been to Thailand or Asia for that matter it is defniitely worth visiting!

Vegas WPPI

WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) was such an awesome event! It was held in Las Vegas this last weekend and it was jammed pack full of speakers with talks from how to run your business to getting inspired and creative about your photography to help you stand out. We took a lot of notes and really tried to look at ourselves to see where we need improvement and how we can make ourselves better and a customers even happier!

   On the way back from Vegas while driving through the desert we stopped at an abandoned gas station and did a little mini shoot. It was such a blast and we were pumped from WPPI so we had to pull out our cameras and start shooting.

  

Knapp's Castle Star Trail

     I've never taken pictures of the stars before so I thought I would take a night trip up to Knapp's Castle. I wanted to have star trail photos with an interesting background and I thought where better than Knapp's Castle on a clear half moon night. It was so beautiful this night and great for pictures (not for staying warm however). It took 35 minutes for this exposure and in total I only took 4 photos despite being there for almost three hours. This photo shows how the earth rotates around the sun and, when the shutter is open for long enough, the stars start to trail giving that motion blur. It was a lot of fun enjoying the view and sitting in the great wide open at midnight looking at all the beautiful stars. If you haven't been there, Knapp's Castle is definitely worth a trip and is really not that far off the beaten path.

     Interestingly enough, there has been some construction up there for the first time in 70 years. For more info about that and Knapp's Castle, click this link to a recent story done by the Santa Barbara Independent.
