Margot, Photoblog

Aloha Photograviewers! I’m going to share a photo with you that I took in early 2007 for the Harper’s BAZAAR/Canon Fashion Photography Award.

I took my friend and model, Margot, down to Luna Park in Sydney with a collection of old outfits, and set up the shots to look like photographs one would see in Harper’s BAZAAR. I did this by previously browsing through the magazine and noting the way the models are positioned, as well as the attention to detail in the foreground and background of the photographs.

Thomas “Opo” Shahan Interview

Last week I found a Flickr Photostream full of portraits of little tiny insects. I couldn’t help but stare at each one of these little bugs at great length. I sent over request to the photographer behind these tiny wonders for an interview. Which he agreed and so I bring you the man behind the lens that captures these tiny creatures, Mr. Thomas Shahan better know in the Flickr community as Opo Terser. I hope you all enjoy his images as much as I do. Continue reading

Chris Archinet Interview

Photographer Chris Archinet just moved back close to his home town in the South of France this past July. Right between Avignon and Lyon where he was born. I think the best way for me to describe Chris would be that he’s a Single Frame Cinematic Explorer of our World. I think that pretty much sums him up. Chris would also like me to add that he is not that familiar with the English language and that he’s not used to talking about his images and how he works. He accepted the interview because he respects the talented people behind the site. With that, I’m pleased to bring you my interview with the Single Frame Cinematic Explorer, Chris Archinet. Enjoy!

My first impressions of the Canon G9

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
