Personal Project - Photographing Fruits in the Shed.
I have been working on a personal project in the shed making photographs of different fruits. After a bunch of failed attempts I arrived at a process and look that made me happy. All of the images were created in camera using multiple exposures and various combinations of strobes and gobos. Click on an image to see it larger.
Amy Smith and an Avocado in the Shed
Now that we are using the shed as a small studio, i am excited to start getting some people over and working together on portraits as well as anything else that comes to mind. Of course Amy (www.helloamysmith.com) is always the perfect subject. Here she is along with - an avocado 8-)). Please click on the image to see the full frame. Canon 5d mark iii, 100mm macro.

I have been saving these leaves for 2 years and finally got around to photographing them today. I have about 30 of them, so more work to come 8-))

cutters and carport 01 | 02 | 03 | 04 | ...
My dad brought these cutters down for me a couple of months ago. They originally belonged to my great grandfather. We both thought they were really cool. There are 9 of them so it just made sense to use them in a new series. The last one is a composite and measures 23.5 x 100 in @ 300 dpi. Please click on an image to view them all larger 8-)).
