Another Building


Today was building #2 and it went much better then the day before. It seems shooting buildings and landscapes is pretty much the only time I get to play with filters anymore since now we have the tools of photoshop....... Now a bit of bum news, Photoshelter is no longer offering stock sales trough their site, only digital storage, strike one for the photographers world, and also Corbis is cutting back, no longer offering assignments and cutting 160 jobs..... Depressing.......

Shooting Buildings


This past winter I shot a bunch of buildings for a engineering firm, and it was one of the hardest jobs I have ever taken. Buildings you'd think would be easy to shoot, they don't move, you never have to tell them what to do, and they always stay in the same spot, easy right? wrong. Thing is in Vegas there is a power line/stop light/strip mall every two feet making life a little harder. For the project I choose to shoot everything pre dawn and post sunset, trying to create a bit more of a feel to the environment, most of the time it worked out great. Today I shot a building that was a total pain in the ass, traffic everywhere, no room to get enough distance between me and the building, I can go on, but I won't. Needless to say I think I'll be shooting this building during the day dodging traffic.......

New Portfolio Books


Over the past couple of months we have been pretty busy putting together our new and cool portfolio books that show case our work. Printed portfolios are almost an animal of the past, but I have to say looking at images that have been printed out rather then online makes a huge difference...... One another note we'll have some pretty exciting news soon, as we continue to explore our photography and its avenues........

Get Outside



The weather is really starting to cool off in the Southwest and it's a perfect time to get outside and enjoy some kick ass weather. Thought I'd share a couple shameless plugs. First up is "Mountain Biking, A Cerca Country Guide", I was the photographer on the book and it covers some amazing trails surrounding the Vegas area, www.stephenspress.com/adventures.html or maybe your into climbing and might be interested in "Red Rock Canyon, A Climbing Guide" www.mountaineersbooks.org/productdetails.cfm?PC=645 another shameless plug and a book I co-authored a couple years back. So get out and enjoy the desert in the fall.............

CCQ Natalie Gulbis


Just received a copy of CCQ with the spread we shot of Natalie Gulbis, cool stuff. We are really pleased with how everything turned out, the client was happy, Natalie was great, and I had a blast shooting this project.......

Feeling Minnesota


Just returned home from a week long trip to Minnesota, relaxed, ate, and took a couple pics. Rigged my camera to the top of my dads little sailboat and played with pops for a couple hours out on the open water, p.o.v. style. The coming weeks are going to be packed with some cool shoots and I'm ready to jump back into the action, recharged.........
