Well as promised here is the final hero shot from the 6 Flags shoot. Thanks again to a great crew. Worked with Producer Jess Dudley from Wonderful Machine in Philly running our production on this one. Thanks again Jess! Also big thanks go out to Scott Dorman from SmallDog Imageworks for going above and beyond the call of duty! Always a pleasure working with Scott. I recommend the experience if you have not yet had the pleasure!

Seminole Motocross

Spent some time shooting out at the Seminole Motocross track recently. These guys were awesome. Super hot day the day we shot there and they were not holding back in the least. Thanks to everyone for helping to make this shoot happen. We got some great stuff.

Breakin' B-Boy

Shot some cool stuff off 6th Street with this rad breakin' b-boy. Funny back story, this is actually Jeff my intern. I caught him doing a little breakdancing about a week ago while setting up some book shots and we decided that we should find a more appropriate location and get it on film!

Lions & Tigers & Bears... Oh My!!!

Just Completed another great shoot for Six Flags! Shot 6 Flags Wild Safari in NJ. Spent 3 days shooting animals of all types for their outdoor and print campaign. Putting it all together in post, working again with Scott Dorman from Smalldog Imageworks. Going to be very cool. Will post images as soon as we can.

Harrr me maitees! Shiver me timbers!

We got so much great stuff during the RenFest weekend. I will post more work from time to time as we get free time in between jobs. Here's one I did today.

Yee Old Guys Part Two.

Spent a couple days shooting at the South Florida Renaissance Festival last weekend. If you've never experienced one before, I highly recommend going. These people are a trip. They are all "Good day to you, my lord & Me lady...." It is great how the stay and live in character throughout the festival. Tons of fun! Here is the first series of images from our our first day's shoot.

New Balance

We've been chosen by Mullen LHC to shoot two ads for New Balance. Just wrapped up shooting on Friday and now in Post world. For these ads we are teaming up again with Scott Dorman from Smalldog Imageworks. Can't show anything yet as the ads do not come out for a few months. Here's a hint though.... The images have sneakers in them. ;-)

Park City Here We Come!

Heading off tomorrow to our place in Park City Utah. Going out for the next 12 days to do some shooting and also get in some much needed turns on the mountain. I am planning to be shooting more of my personal work in the same vein of the shot shown here.

Also going to be doing some book stuff on stills and new motion stuff for the reel.... Will be testing out our new Canon 1D Mark IV camera and this nifty little GoPro Hero for some great POV perspectives! Can't wait! Think Snow! :-)

1st 2 Visit Florida Print ads

Here are the 1st 2 ads from the VISIT FLORIDA print ad campaign we shot.

Heli Shot over the Everglades.

Did some heli work shooting Airboats in the Everglades the other day for VISIT FLORIDA shooting stills for a print and for a TV campaign. Here's a series of production stills of us making a low pass over the airboat shooting for TV.

Gotta give props to our PJ pilot from Cameracopters! Those guys know how to fly. Earlier in the day we were hovering over a 38 foot cabin cruiser on the ocean going about 40 miles per hour and we were so close I got hit by some of the bow spray from the boat!

Fun Stuff!

VISIT FLORIDA!

'Tis the season for Tourism.    Just finished two weeks of Prepro and starting a week and a half of shooting for VISIT FLORIDA this week shooting with our friends at Alma DDB.   Shooting for print and TV commercials.    Great stuff!   Shooting all over Florida.    Should be a fantastic shoot.    Will post images as soon as I can release them!

Miami GMCVB

Just completed another shoot for Turkel Advertising for the Greater Miami Conventions and Visitors Bureau.     Continuing last year's campaign.    Shot 3 more ads for them for this year.   Knee deep in retouching as we speak.  Cool stuff!!  Will show the work as soon as I can release it.   

Yee Haw!!!

A photo from a while back of my buddy Jim Nork rippin' it up in Portillo Chille.

Rippin'

New work for the Sports book from a previous shoot in Aspen Highlands.

Painter in Quebec

Personal image.    Ran across this man painting a wall while on a trip to Quebec recently.

On The Road To Success...

We did a shoot recently for MyBusiness Magazine. The story was of a young entrepreneur named Jay Shectman. He is a smart high school kid who started his own tutoring business and ended up turning it into a successful company with many young tutors working for him. When I met him he was already setting his sights on his next company. Pretty impressive to see someone so young who just "get's it".

On the road to success!

Gotta Little Captain In You?

So some may ask, "What do you guys do all summer up there in Maine?" Well how about dressing a guy up in a pirate outfit and pulling him on water skis behind a plane? Sounds perfectly safe right? Had some fun the other day shooting Adam Gardner getting his "Captain on" for the Captain Morgan "get a little Captain in you" promo.

Step 1: Get a boat that goes really fast.

Step 2: find a pilot willing to break a few rules.

Step 3: find a guy willing to be dragged behind a plane.

Step 4: Add a few shots of Captain and make magic! Fun stuff.
