After going up to the Tire Rack in South Bend to get some new tires on my car with my friends Travis and Eddie, we got lost taking a creative way through town. After getting lost and but before really realizing we were heading the wrong way we found the best place to shoot in a long time! First Eddie just pointed out how run down and cool looking this building was and I decided to park the car out in front of it just to play around and see what I could get. The Car was filthy so I didn’t expect to get much. Below You can see what I got.

I only got a couple frames I was happy with of my car. MAKE SURE YOU Click on the Photo to view it Bigger! You really cant see much unless you view them large and on black.. Specially the portrait one.

After taking those photos of my car, me and Eddie decided to take a look inside the building. We were very surprised at what we found! This abandoned building had all kinds of cars mostly European from Audi to MG and there was even a Pontiac GTO. This was a great find and I got some pretty good photos.

This Pan of the Building took about 45 mins to stitch and save out. Working with the 7D Files has put extra stress on my computer and I really need to upgrade my ram to manage these new Higher Resolution Photos. With my 40D I never had any type of problem with the system being sluggish.. I am definitely not complaining though because the 7D’s 18 megapixels create some very crisp images even out of the small sensor!

Audi 5000 and Old 4 door BMW, not sure exactly what kind.

Porsche Diptych

Pontiac Diptych. Click on this one to view on black!

I am not sure what these two last cars are… Leave a comment if you know!

I Hope to make it back to this building before someone tear it down! I am going to go up and do some filming next time. I want to do a bunch of dolly shots and what not then bring it in to the computer add a little score and some motion graphic elements! So HOPEFULLY I can make that happen this summer soon!

Ashley had some ideas of what she wanted to see in her photos such as the Hay Bail, her dog, and Her Dads bike. You can see the Hay Bail here below. Other then that she was up for anything which made for a real laid back session. We drove around and found a swing under a weeping willow tree that turned out to be amazing, as well as a field across the street from the swing that just was perfect in the afternoon sun and that produced the best photo of the whole set. After that we went into town and set up a studio like setup next to a building where the paint was chipping and made for some really nice portraits and head shots!

The Spink, Lake Wawasee’s premiere condo complex, bought their first website over the winter over at Benson Communications. They wanted a very information site and didn’t really need much frills or extra perks with it. However wanted the site to look very proper and clean. I was able to deliver a final product that met or even exceeded what they expected to see as a final product.

I really updated something! I added some work to the Photography Section and to the Web Section in my Portfolio Section.. And I made everything fit in my new single column layout that I went with a few months back. I still need to do the Footer the way I want and update my print section with a couple things I did in 2009 but at least I updated something.

Long time friend Brandon Klinefelter and his wife Kassy asked me to get some family photos this last fall. I was able to get quite a few good frames out at my good friend Jessica’s house. I love her red wall in her living room and it worked very well as a background. I need to get a place where I can paint a few walls different colors for backgrounds..

Enjoy the photos below and check out a few more on my Flickr

My Sister is really good in front of the camera, I really dont direct her at all, and sometimes when I do it just ruins things anyway. She is so good in front of the camera I think that we are going to pursue more avenues with Fashion and Modeling. Good for both me and her, I get to the photography that I always want to do and she gets to stand in front of the camera, win! Anyway I am going to just post a few photos below. Hopefully I can find some time to update my portfolio with all the good work that I have been doing recently. I also want to revamp this site this winter, like move that sidebar to the right down to the footer and just display all my work the whole width of the site, sounds like a good idea. The whole site should look tons better and be way more functional to people visiting and need work done.

Would love to shoot For Fashion!

I have been really really busy lately with Logos, Full Website, Styling Sites, eBay, Business Cards, Flyers, and Photography… Like really busy. Can you ever have to much to do? ….. Stupid question right… Ha

Here are some sites that I have just gotten done in the last week though! Take a look!

Above is Blakes new Blog, He posts more then I do right now so comment and tell him to slow down on his work cause it sucks anyway. Ha. Just joking Blake! Really his work is some of the best! Better 3D then I have ever or ever will create! You have to go check it out. I just styled this one.. It was built on wordpress and I used the Barthelme theme as my base because I really liked the font and the way the meta data was laid out, plus I couldn’t really spend that much time on it cause I really dont have much time.

This Site above, is a site that I worked a really long time on because I really just took the wrong approach at it and coded the whole thing from scratch. I dont think I will ever do that again. I will definitley be using wordpress as my CMS from now on! If you ever need anything done to your car though, Arrow Auto Body is the Place to go for sure!

ReduceOurUtilityCost.com is actaully AAA Infrared Building Diagnostics, LLC. They are a new company in Syracuse IN doing Home and business Energy Audits. They use a Special Infrared Camera to take photos of your house and can detect where energy is leaking out, or cold air is leaking in. The camera can also detect moisture and all kinds of things behind your walls. Take a look at their site for tons of more info on the subject.

This website was done through Benson Communications on the Website Maintence Program (WMP). The WMP is a great package deal that includes everything you need to get yourself or business online! From the Hosting to the Design to the SEO.

I also did the logo for this company with finishing touches all done by John Azzilonna.

Well I am sure there are tons more websites on the horizon, I have 2 more to finish content on; BensonCom.com and WawaseeFlotilla.com. Those should be up soon. For now I am going to get back to work on some Photography that I need to get printed today.

New Business Card finally out to print!!! I started this back before winter in fall, but just now I was satisfied with them enough to actaully get them printed! I am wicked stoked for them to come in now!

Both sides will have spot UV on the lines and on the logo! I will take detailed photos when they come in next week!
