Nike – 11.03.2009
Back from a 3-day shoot in LA, well…technically Thousand Oaks, CA. Good to be out in the sun. Good to work with some talented athletes. Not good to come home with a farmer’s tan. But good to be back in rainy Portland with a tan nonetheless. Shout out to the Lydmeister for producing the shoot. Corey for first assisting. Big props to my LA crew: J-Bomb, Big Kenny, and my key grip,Team. Yeah, he’s so damn good, HIS name is Team. The photos from this shoot should be sparingly sprinkled on N

Erika at Sunset
Just got back from a 3 day shoot in LA. Got lot’s in the works for the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned for some behind the scenes of that shoot. In the meantime, here’s one from the archives. Get’s dark too damn early these days. Worked on this image to brighten up my cold, wet, rainy day.

Behind the Scenes: Hoops Training
A few weeks ago we shot some basketball training footage (stills & video) at Nike. Here are some behind the scenes of the madness. R-Lu & Kent setting up at the early morning call time. The mess behind the cameras. Dom on the steady. More mess behind the cameras. and…..action!

Ty: Before and After – Men’s Fashion/Beauty Retouching
Haven’t been shooting a lot of personal work lately – just a bunch of commercial work that i can’t really share at the moment. So we got another one from the archives. Found this capture of Ty, shot back home on Maui last summer (i think). Shot at Ho’okipa beach, down by the tide pools with the West Maui Mountains peaking out in the background. Raw. Straight out of the camera. Color, toning, and exposure in Lightroom.

Oldies, but goodies.
Here are some shots i edited this morning from past shoots i’ve done throughout this year and last. It’s fun going back into the archives and discovering new favorites that were overlooked from the initial edits.
