The Photography Post {Link}

I'm thinking on Fridays I'm going to try and highlight a blog or website I enjoy.  Todays link is the brandy new photography site called, The Photography Post.  It was founded just a few months ago by: Danielle Franca Swift, Rachel Hulin, Kate Steciw, and Henry Tam.  I found it through A Photography Blog, another site by Rachel Hulin. 

The Photography Post uses images to highlight new posts and news from around the interwebs relating to Photography (heavy on fine art).  Most of the top/popular photo blogs are covered, including: Strobist, WTJ?, Heather Morton, PDN, Aperture, A Photo Editor, and many more.

The bottom line is this, if you're interested in photography, this site is for you.  It's one-stop shopping for all the latest interesting photo happenings and musings from around the industry.  Check out The Photography Post when you have a chance.

Worcester Rocks! {Event}

Portrait of Joel

Joel (above) has one of his photos in the Worcester Rocks! photo show tonight.  It's being held at the Worcester Art Museum and showcases the local music scene as documented by local photographers.  Joel is always out and about and captures some great images.  You can check out his flickr here.  My lovely wife Sarah and I will be in attendance, so if you're in the area, come check it out.

Contrary {Music}

Here are a few images from a shoot I did last week with up and coming rapper Contrary.  Check out his stuff on myspace and look for his soon to be released album.

It was a really fun shoot and the guys were up for anything I threw at them.  Looking forward to possibly another shoot with these guys this coming summer.

  

Ton-Up! {Personal}

This is my motorcycle.  I love my motorcycle.

I'm posting this because:
a.) it's nice out, so I got to ride.
b.) who doesn't like looking at cool motorcycles?
c.) even though this is my "work" blog, no one reads it anyway.

Also, I have a cousin and uncle in Ireland who are big into motorcycles, and I thought I'd give them a glimpse of the beast.  (Hi Keith + Dave!)

It's a 2004 Triumph Thruxton that I bought used a few years ago with 4000 miles on it.  I love the "cafe racer" aesthetic of this bike.  It's like it was transported directly from a bygone era, an era that was rad.

I just painted my exhaust black, and the headlight bucket and wheels are next up on the agenda.  I also plan on installing some fork gaiters and black header wrap.  It's really tough for me to find the time to work on the bike, only because I'd much rather be riding it.  

Senior Portrait Ads {Marketing}

I put these senior ads together recently for my senior portrait work.  I plan on doing the same for my wedding work soon.  

Hike {Personal}

The weather has been fantastic this weekend.  I got my first motorcycle ride in yesterday, and today Sarah and I went for a nice hike near our house.  Here are a few from today.

The weather outside right now is, well, frightful.  So I thought I'd post a few images from a warmer, gentler time.  a.k.a. last summer.

Here's to summer.

This little guy was the perfect subject.  No crying, no fussing, just being cool.  Thanks little dude.  Here are a few of my favorites.

Haiti

The earthquake in Haiti has really mobilized people around the world to help.  A friend of ours is putting together a fundraiser concert on February 14th to raise money to be donated to the relief efforts.  I was happy to volunteer my services to try and help out.  I'll be at the event all day taking portraits and band promo pics.  For a small donation you can get a nice portrait or your band can get some press shots to use to market yourselves.  I'm really looking forward to this event and hope anyone who is in the area can attend. 
(I'll put up the details when I have them)

*Update: Like I said, the date is Feb. 14th.  I believe it's running 2-10pm and it will be held in Milford, MA.  More details when I have them.  Thanks.
