Mōdm Pedals
There are a couple young fellas in Milledgeville, GA making BRILLIANT electric guitar pedals with very snazzy design work. These are all analog, like the old days, and they sound even better than they look!
Dillon, who does all the custom artwork on the pedals, wanted some wild dreamy effects for the baby A/B pedal photos so I shot up-close through a backwards 50mm lens to get the veeeery short depth of field that Dillon was looking for.
Coffee!
The perk of travelling to somewhere out of country for a shoot is getting to be somewhere different and get a taste of a different culture. and sometimes… a taste of their really. REALLY. good coffee. : ) So while in Jamaica for our last wedding shoot, I brought back as much Blue Mountain Coffee as I possibly could! srsly.
I’m passionate about coffee, as you can see.
NASA STS-131 Shuttle Launch
On April 5th 2010 I headed for Orlando doing around 80 mph and drinking a REALLY good iced coffee from Octane- it was on the way right? 8 hrs of driving was absolutely worth it to get these pictures in Cape Canaveral!
The shuttle launch was scheduled for 6:21 AM. So, naturally you have to take the bus that drops you off at the Kennedy space center at around 4:30 AM. THAT bus – it leaves the hotel at 4:10 AM… and THAT bus at THAT hotel is 45 minutes away. so ya gotta leave at 3:15 AM… guess who didn’t get up at 2:45 AM when the alarm went off.
ME!!!! I woke up at 3:12! So my buddy Colin and I got dressed, packed, and in the car in about 8 minutes and BOOKED it down to Cape Canaveral and made it in time for the bus, and more importantly- the LAUNCH!!!!! : )
The streak of light in the top left of this picture is the International Space Station passing over in it’s orbit, just minutes before the launch. Way cool.
