Investment Advisor Cover
The above image was used on the cover of the January 2010 issue of Investment Advisor (as if you couldn’t read).
I’m not big on compositing. I tend to like straight photography (although, now days you never can be too sure). Whenever I see a photographer who does those big time 52 images to make one image, I’m never really impressed. But, a lot of times I’ll go to the “personal work” section of their website and see straight images that I like.
Love Then Hate, Hate Then Love
I often don’t like images right away. Or, I’ll immediately like one image from a shoot better than another. Then, I’ll come across a set of images from a shoot months later and realize I do like the images or that I like an image I didn’t like at first better than the one I originally liked. This is one of the those images. Last night I came came across the image in my library and decided I liked it.
Guitarists
My series of guitarist portraits is up on my site. Here is one of the other guitarists I shot back in December. Not sure what to call this project… right now I’m just going with the obvious “Guitarists.” You can see the full gallery here.
This is Reyka of the band Death Valley High. He’s playing a Ibanez Artist from the 70’s.
The Apple iPad – Your New Portfolio?
Great, someone else talking about the iPad this week… how original.
I haven’t decided if I want one or not just yet but I began to wonder if the freshly announced Apple iPad could be an acceptable portfolio to bring to a portfolio showing. I’ll go ahead and say I don’t think it can beat a great custom designed and printed portfolio with current work… but those are limited to whatever prints you have in your portfolio at any given moment. And as anyone who has a printed portfolio knows, keeping your book current isn’t as easy as one might think… especially if it’s a bound book.
Serious Guitar Face
As if regular guitar face wasn’t enough, here are a few out-takes from the Guitarists shoot I wrote about last week that made me laugh. Now that is some serious guitar face (more below).
