My first impressions of the Canon PowerShot G9 is that it’s a very solid camera with a good weight to it. The well constructed camera body gives it a PRO like feel much like my previous 1D Mark2. It’s the closest thing to a PRO level camera in point-n-shoot category. The settings are easy to navigate; both the external buttons and the onscreen menus are nicely laid out. Continue reading

Samantha Yeakle Interview
One time when shooting stills for the MTV pilot for Bam Margaria’s Uncle Matt. Samantha Yeakle and I were both there and we ended up heading out to some far off location to shoot some guns. So I offered to give Samantha a ride in my 1990 300zx with T-tops off. I think I scared her a little bit too much. I recall her shaking after we got out of the car; but when it was time for her to start shooting she was steady as a rock! I would like to introduce you to my friend Samantha Yeakle. Continue reading
Fisherman, Photo Review
So, I went for a walk on the beach one stormy afternoon and found this single fisherman fishing in this dreadful weather. I thought briefly that I should go ask him why he is finishing in such bad weather… Then I realized he could ask me pretty much the same question on why I was there. So instead I took a picture of him from a far. Did a little bit of an HDR process to bring out the clouds a bit more. Continue reading
Chad Coombs Interview
Photographer Chad Coombs shoots out of Saskatoon, Canada. I’m going to quote Chad’s flickr profile as his introduction because it best sums up why I interviewed him.

So I’m very pleased to bring you the interview with the photographer who isn’t held down by they gravity of others; Mr. Chad Coombs. Continue reading
Wendy Williamson Interview
I went to High School with New York Photographer Wendy Williamson; we didn’t really know each other back then that well. I am glad I’ve gotten to know her a little better since then via the internet. The first time I viewed her photographs I was very taken with her eye and subjects; I love how Wendy finds beauty in everyone around her. I would like to introduce you to Photographer Wendy Williamson. Continue reading
Wojtek Kutyla Interview
So I found this sublime photographer through our Flickr Group. His recent portraits of Sam Kellet wowed me. So I was very excited that he agreed to do an interview with us. Wojtek Kutyla shoots out of Sheffield, United Kingdom as a Fashion & Portrait photographer. He also decided to follow suit of Sarah Sitkin in doing an exclusive self-portrait for his interview with us; however instead of a self-portrait he had his friend Grzegorz Kozakiewicz take his picture. I’m very please to bring you this interview with photographer Wojtek Kutyla. Continue reading
Labrador, Photo Review
I took this photograph years ago in my old portrait studio. It has become one of my favorites I shot during this time. The story behind is quite funny; he really wanted to lick or eat my camera and would not sit still for more than 3 seconds before lunging at me trying to get at it. Continue reading
