Las Vegas Portrait, Beauty, Boudoir and Cultural Photography
When I switched to shooting Fuji cameras last year I noticed it brought about distinct changes in my shooting style. Because of aperture rings and shutter speed and ISO dials, the tactile connection the cameras offered in having full manual control over the exposure, it made me want to slow down in my process of …
Well, it’s June and here in Vegas things are already starting to hear up. Seems a bit early, but that kind of heat is what you can expect living in the desert. I went downtown yesterday around 4:30pm and shot until around 9pm, when the temps dropped to a chilly 94°F. 😉 If you go …
Had another fantastic shoot with Jonny this past week. The last shoot we had done together was for the April issue of FujiLove magazine. We got some beautiful, moody, lowlight shots for that project. So for this shoot I wanted to go the other way and really lighten things up. I was also using this photo …

This is a followup to the video I did a little while ago where I talked about shooting at ISO 12800. For that video I just set up some still life, moody, available light shots to look and see what the quality of the grain would look like. Turns out, it’s pretty beautiful stuff! If you …
A photographer, Wing Yip, made a comment on one of my videos this week that he had been doing some street photography with his Fuji camera using ISO 12800 and was happy with the results he was getting. That inspired me to do some shots at 12800 an see what kind of results I would …
I’ve been shooting with the X-Pro2 now for a little over a little over a month now, so it’s been enough time that I wanted to share a few of my favorite features and things about the camera, as well as just a user experience. One feature I REALL LOVE and I can’t believe I …
