July 19 - Car show

I got to shoot a car show on Sunday for the owner of a local Auto Service shop. He really does great work and it was a pleasure to show up and see all these fantastic cars all lined up for me to shoot. It was also great to get a picture perfect weather day for the event. Instead of my usual one photo, I am posting several here. The entire gallery can be found on my website here.

Today you get 14 photos for the price of one. Hope you enjoy...

All photos taken with Canon 5D Mark II and either the EF 17-40mm f/4L or the TS-E 90mm f/2.8. The last shot is actually a stitch of 4 separate exposures. Can you see the lines?

July 18 bonus - Heidi

I got to hang out with my friend Heidi for a good portion of the photo walk on Saturday. It was a lot of fun shooting together, and I managed to get a spontaneous portrait of her while she was swapping lenses on her camera. She has a wonderful laugh, I was really happy with how this photo turns out as I feel it captures a bit of her personality very well.

July 18 - Worldwide Photowalkers

Last Saturday was Scott Kelby's second annual worldwide photowalk. You can find more information about it here, but basically it was a gathering of over 32,000 photo nerds in almost 1000 cities worldwide, but limited to 50 folks per walk. I walked with several friends in Stillwater, Minnesota and had a great time. Was even fortunate enough to meet a few of the folks that work on Adobe Lightroom, which is what I use to edit 95% of my photos.

This is a photo of 3 of my good friends as we set out from the meeting point and started walking:

July 17 - Running

I went to a family's house last week to do a lifestyle shoot for a them. They've got a real nice place on 12 acres, so we wandered around and found different spots to shoot. Well...I wandered. The kids ran...and ran...and ran some more. All over the place. They had a couple of their cousins staying over too, so they joined us but didn't get into the photos, for the most part. This is one of their cousins, running to catch up. I got this one as she ran past me on one of their trails. (Oh..and see? Check the EXIF. I do still use the original 5D. Some people have been asking.)

July 15 - Reflections

I got an architectural gig for a client's international calendar, hired to shoot this condo complex in Bloomington called Reflections.

Do you think that Reflections is a good name?
