New Place

After a great Thanksgiving, I moved across town to a new place. Loft-style, with plenty of room to shoot and one amazing view..

Mock Stars

Last weekend was the release party for John Wenzel's Mock Stars, a book about indie rock and comedy. You can check out an interview with John at Donnybrook. The party, held at Denver's Larimer Lounge, was a lot of fun, with comedians Jim Hickox, Ben Kronberg, Adam Cayton-Holland, Greg Baumhauer and Ben Roy, as well as indie rock bands We Are! We Are!, Rabbit is a Sphere, and Everything Absent or Distorted. For some stange reason, I decide to shoot photos of the event..

50D

Recently picked up a Canon 50D, and have run a few test shoots.. a party and two portrait sessions. So far I'm happy with the new camera, despite running into an initial issue with chromatic aberration (purple fringing). Some of the shots are in the flickr feed, and I've already managed to get most of Andria's session up on iStock.

On another fun note - one of the reasons I picked up this camera was the high fps, great for sports. Today was the first snowfall in Denver, and I'm excited to get up to the slopes, both to ride and shoot!

Go Vote!

It's important.

Obama Rally

Went down to check out Obama's speech at a rally in Denver's Civic Center Park on sunday. The city was expecting maybe 30 thousand, but roughly 100 thousand showed up. 

It was a pretty amazing sight; here's a view from Broadway back toward the capital.

International Talk Like a Pirate Day

So International Talk Like a Pirate Day was this past friday, Sept 19th. The Donnybrook Writing Academy hosted a little TLAP party, running along with a local CD release show.

Laurie Scavo and Nina Barry were on hand taking photos. Check it out..

Oil on the Beach

The Surfrider Foundation's started a new blog about the renewed effort to allow offshore drilling in the US. As an avid surfer and ocean lover, I'd like to share it with you:
