The Strobist for The Howard County Times
Sometimes photographing another photographer can be intimidating. …sometimes it can be annoying. But I felt neither emotion when I got to photograph David Hobby last week. It was

So, that’s where I heard about him. Now… I’m a big fan. and I LOOOOOOVE his wackadoo style. It seems like Mr. Trent just likes to have fun. [...]
10am Update: Shoot whatever you want, just not their faces.
A new playground for the abused and neglected children of The Ravens Courage House had an opening ceremony Friday January 20, 2005. For the children’s safety none of them are to be identified in the photo. So, what do you do when you can’t show faces? — thank your lucky stars for the sun location, [...]
Holy Smokes! I’m in 2nd place.
I know this sounds like I’m bragging — and well, I guess I am a little, but not in a cocky way. It’s more like a “super excited” kind of bragging. I did really well in the recently judged September clip contest. The monthly clip contest doesn’t really go in order. December’s already been judged, [...]
Shoot the Emotion!
If I was to give myself some professional New Years resolutions, this is one of them. “Shooting the emotion” weighs heavier to viewers than cool, graphic images. Using rad light and a bad-ass compositions, don’t cut to the core. They’re just eye candy. Don’t get me wrong, I LOOOOOVE eye candy. When I look over [...]

Like A Damn Supaman!
I recently flew in from apad’s Geekfest and boy is my cape tattered. On related news, Allison V. Smith, one of the Geekfest speakers, friended me today on facebook — which is WAAAAY COOL. The major theme I took away from her talk was to make photos of stuff you like. — stuff that doesn’t [...]
