I've Got to Find Some Kind of Peace of Mind

An awesome post I found. Love the song (Chasing the Broken Hearted by Phil Retrospector)...it replaced Take A Minute in my head! Enjoy!!

New York Giants...of Photography

Photo: (L to R bottom) Luke, forgot his name, The Mike Colon, Matt Grazier.
Yes, it's that packed, there's jockeying, elbowing, balancing acts and alot of Yoga maneuvering. I'm just a junior in this neck of the woods...so i always get the bad spots

Three years ago, my company sent me to the NYC Bridal Fashion week. Being a young guy, relatively new to the world of photography - let alone, a New York City runway, i was definitely wide-eyed and VERY intimidated. It's hard to put in words the talent, the accomplishments, and reputations that are in the 'pits' with me.

You would think they were all smug, arrogant and unapproachable, but they were all incredibly kind, funny and helpful (with the exception of a few bad apples). These guys, today, are good friends and I look forward to working alongside these "giants" every April and October!

I'll be blogging LIVE from the pits this October!!

On a side note: Never having any formal training or shadowing for runway, I am now lightyears from when i first started. My photos turned out a little warmer (red/pink hues) my first time around. Now, I keep a close eye on color temperatures. Whatever Kelvin you think it is, it's usually 2 clicks below that. My runway stuff in the wedding dress section of TheRingBearer.ca. Note: I didn't shoot all of them.

TheRingBearer.ca Sent Me to Vegas / Magic Show

My company, TheRingBearer.ca sent me and a few of us to Vegas for an unofficial "reward" for being a model employee...;) But, it's not all fun and games, we were there to cover the Magic Show ... not that magic show, I'm talking about The Magic Show, everyone in North and South America come to Vegas to showcase the latest and best in fashion...if you haven't been, it's definitely a spectacle. We got to try out these new watches, headsets, sweaters etc... Here are some pics from the trip.

Things Couples Should Discuss Before Walking Down the Isle


Divorce is one of those things I don't want to see becoming common in the future (if it isn't already). I strongly believe in marriage and people need to take a little more time to get to know each other first before diving in. > What you need to talk about
