It’s been a while since I shot with my infrared converted camera. Of course the effect is much more noticeable when the trees have foliage, but this scene was calling to be photographed with the crisp infrared effect.

Day 11 of 365: Shoot The Freak
12 01 2010Starting to find it hard to carve out the time for a serious shoot everyday. And it’s only day 11! It was freezing cold at Coney Island today. I felt like a freak so the image was appropriate.

The Christmas Crusaders – A Unique Shoot For The Holidays
26 12 2008What better way to etch an indelible memory of a family holiday than to create an image that nobody will forget. So I forced convinced Wendy’s family to pose for this cool conceptual shot (thanks guys, you were all troopers). What is the concept you ask? Well, I was going for something out of a comic book. For now the temporary name is “The Christmas Crusaders?” But I’m taking better suggestions – hit the comments below…
The Christmas Crusaders
The Christmas crusaders (from left to right) are : Terrence, Cory, Me, Wendy, Jorge, Kelvin.
Happy holidays everyone!

Holidays With The NY Underwater Photographic Society
5 12 2008When you’re into such a specific niche like underwater photography, it’s always nice to find birds of a feather to hang out with. That’s why we started the NYUPS in April of 2007, which has grown to a loosely defined group of about 200 with a hardcore group of about 50 local underwater photographers from NY, NJ, CT and PA, who come together once a month to network and discuss underwater photography. On Dec 2nd we hosted a small holiday party, which was a lot of fun.
Every so often we host a big event, such as the David Doubilet event in March of 2008, where we get over 200 attendees and fill a really nice theater. I’m really happy to be able to spend time with others that share my unique passion for underwater imagery. If you’re in the tri-state area and want to come to one of our monthly meetings, there is no cost, and the website is built on a social networking platform you can participate from afar as well. Hope to see you online or at an event!

Mixed Emotions About Sushi – Except When Shooting It
11 10 2008As an underwater photographer who has a love for the creatures and beauty of life in the ocean, I have major mixed emotions about sushi. I love sushi, but have been very selective on which types I eat due to the environmental threats to species like Tuna – yes Tuna – they’re almost gone folks! Especially “Toro” or the fatty Tuna, which comes from Blue Fin, the most threatened of all the world Tuna species.
Anyway, we were eating in our local sushi spot the other day and I was watching the owner struggle with her little point & shoot camera to capture the beauty of a particular sashimi dish the chef just made. I happened to have my D3 and two speedlights with me, so I offered to shoot it for her. I arranged a nice background and voila – not bad for 10 minutes during lunch. We’re going to schedule a full blown photo shoot now to capture all the amazing sushi art that this particular chef creates. he is truly skilled!

Hip Hop PR Shoot
27 08 2008I did this shoot a couple of weeks ago, but was just going through the selects. This is Bateria, a Latin hip hop artist from Brooklyn via Medellin Columbia. Bateria is an old school rap artist who is part of a new group called House of Repz, they just got a recording contract and shot a video for their first single 5 Faces of Death, produced by superstar hip hop producer DJ Premier. I shot a series of PR shots for Bateria, and will be doing so for House of Repz shortly.
