Well its been WAY too long but I'm back. Lot's of travel, lots of weddings, lot's of shoots, a cross country move... all this has added up to blogging being put on the back burner. Well that's over. This will be the first post of many. So keep coming back... and tell your friends that the rumor that I disappeared isn't true. :)

This shoot is from last year and I ad always meant to blog it but for some reason or another I never did. This is my friend Edmund Prieto. He's one of the nicest and most talented guys I've ever met. He's good at literally everything he does. One of the things he does is skateboard. At one time in his life he was a sponsored, touring skater. He asked me to shoot him last year so he could finally have some good images of him doing what he loves.

Here's Edmund.

WOODSHOP: A PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP

May 1, 2009

Your favorite class in High School is back... minus the power tools and the creepy teacher missing 3 fingers.

Over the past months I've done a few private workshops with people from across the country. I haven't really advertised it but I've been getting so many emails about this lately I thought I'd go ahead and let you guys in on the info and open it up to everyone.

The workshops can cover anything you want... shooting, posing/directing clients, processing/photoshop, blogging, pricing, pricing for destination weddings, dealing with clients, wedding day time management... its totally up to you. We can sit and talk for the whole time or we can get outside and put your new knowledge to use in a shoot... again, its up to you.

These sessions will, for the most part, take place here in Orange County but if you're scared of flying or have a group or would just rather me come to you let me know and we can work out the travel.

Hey Kelsey, I can't promise anything but I'll do my best to get a game together while you're here. :)

a wood shop sounds nice will the jory cordy be there? this sounds good but I do want included in movie. If we dont find a better options I think '17 Again' would be best option. how long will "wood" experience last me? and how many questions will you have during the wood experience.

I'd love to do breakfast. Is morning wood offered? A full day sounds dangerous. Should I consult my Dr. if it lasts more than 4 hours?
