Soccer

Last weekend Andrew and I shot the opening soccer game at Creighton University. Here's Andrew at work...

Groov'n with Ben Harper

Went to see Ben Harper in Minnesota last week, and scored a press pass. Besides my coworkers, I may be the only one actually excited to be working at a concert. Ben rocked it out- as always (if you haven't seen him live- do it- this cat can perform) Let me know if you are going to any show- I'll road trip with you.

Helicopter Round II

Back from Idaho with another helicopter ride under the belt- along with some of the best cook'n ever served in a wheat field.

Texas Shoot Out

More combines spotted along the Texas Oklahoma boarder aka Texoma. This time we did a little shoot'n from the skies. Special thanks to Lora for all the sweet BTS photography! (Most of the images in the gallery are thanks to Lora's good eye)
Heading to Idaho tomorrow to find combines harvesting wheat.

Unplugged

Mike and I just returned from an island off the coast of Puerto Rico called Vieques. We stayed in an incredibly unique property, Hix Island House that allowed us to be totally "unplugged" for a week. Having no TV, internet or phone in the place was amazingly serene with only the sound of the horses down the road and the tree frogs at night. Almost the entire structure was made of cement with a few modern amenities such as a refrigerator, gas stove and most importantly, running water. The shower was outside and as you can see from the pictures our loft was entirely open to the elements of nature including numerous kinds of geckos that inhabited the place with us and a stellar view.
Enjoy the pictures.

Chimp'n

Stephanie caught me chimp'n (looking at the digital back) on a shoot in North Dakota earlier this week.

DC in Black & White

I spent a few days early this week in Washington, DC. The images below are from the Hirshhorn and Natural History Museums.

....and if you're heading that way I recommend you stay at the Hotel Helix- it's a great boutique hotel.

HOT DAY= COOL PHOTOS

It was hot outside and the crew was heat'n it up inside too.
Check out the behind the scenes of:
•building sets
•finding people fishing in a boat
•finding a lake for the boat people to fish in (these people and their boat will later be dropped into a sink- inside a kitchen-thanks to the magic of Kate Heller)
•sweaty people taking pictures
the list goes on...

GO TEAM!
