I’ve mentioned Prime Lenses here many times in the past, but there is always room for another post, especially when that post features one of the most important people in modern history: me. (My mom thought I fit this bill, …
Creative: Fill Flash
I’m continually amazed by how many younger creatives thumb their nose at education, training, and the idea that photography is something learned through practice. I’ve noticed a trend to be famous before doing even the most rudimentary moves toward learning …
Adventure: Reality Check
The best place for me to be is in the field. I knew this all along, but life is full of distractions, duties, and deliverables that make being in the field and staying in the field difficult at times. Going …
Creative: Swatch Kits Are Back
You asked for it. We delivered. The beloved swatch kits are back. Different from the last offering, but better in some ways. Remember something, a swatch kit is a starting point. It’s not meant to save you or give you …
