Flore Photoshoot

Had a photoshoot with the Flore family again.  They have proven themselves to be one of my best clients!  This is the biggest family portrait I am ever done (well, not really, done bigger at weddings) -  I shot these with my 40D and Alien Bee 800.  Most were F6-11 250




Drops of water

I was bored one night, So I decided to take some pictures of water droplets...

Biggest Trout Yet!

Dicks creek up in north Ga is now my favorite place to fish.  Bryan and I spent two nights here and spent 90% of our time fishing and cooking trout.  The average size trout we were catching were between 8-9 inches.  The entire time we were there we probably caught about 45 trout and cooked probably 20 of those.

Here is the exception of that 8-9 inch trout.  This beauty was the prize of the weekend.  he is 21.5 inches and was caught in a pool no more than 10 feet across and 5-6 feet deep.  I played him for just a few seconds and then swung him on the bank because I only had 2lb line on.  it snapped off right when it was getting onto the bank.
Here is some context to the size trout we were catching and the monster I caught


the two filets on the fire......   I put toasted almond on my side.  MMmmm

First nights catch

Peyton 8 Months

The Nator Gator

I got my new Alien Bee AB800 light the other day so I decided to play with it.  It was fun to use Pman as my subject.  The backdrop is actually our bedsheet draped on 2 chairs.  




His hair looks red in certain lighting!  Don't know exactly where he got that.
