mmmm…cookies!

October 20, 2010

A friend asked me to photograph some of his mom’s famous cookies for a book of recipes he’s putting together.  Never in my photographic journey have I been tempted to eat the subjects of my photography.  I’m sure you can see why.  IMG_6606low_resIMG_6607low_resIMG_6611low_resIMG_6621low_resIMG_6624low_resIMG_6629low_resIMG_6633low_res

Improve the Vue

October 15, 2010

I enjoy photographing pretty much anything, but there’s nothing like photographing people voluntarily working to improve their community.  Hundreds came out to Bellevue’s “Improve the Vue.”  Sadly I was only able to stick around for a few hours, but here’s a sample of the shots I was able to capture in the little bit of time I was able to be there.

Between the Air Force calling me out for three months, my “real job” getting a bit busy, and some gear breaking down I have not had the time or energy to get out shooting recently.  However, I believe the tide has finally turned.  I am no longer on active duty orders, my “real job” is somewhat back to normal, and I am slowly getting my gear repaired and/or purchasing upgrades.

To start a new season of Pittsburgh-focused photography (both freelance and events) I am very excited to announce that my photography will soon be a published in a new, local publication called Verdure Magazine (verduremagazine.com).  Verdure Magazine is a publication focused on helping Pittsburghers make better environmental and sustainable decisions.  It’s a great new venture that I am very excited to be a small part of.  Over the past few weeks I have been working on my first photoshoot for the magazine.  I shot some images to be used as part of an article by the Green Grandma (thegreengrandma.blogspot.com) titled “A Green Christmas.”  Below is a small sample of the images that I’ve submitted.  The issue will be released sometime this fall/winter.  Be sure to get a copy and tell all of your friends about Focused on the Point Photography, The Green Grandma, and Verdure Magazine!!

Long Time No Posts

July 16, 2010

I realize how long it’s been since I last posted some new Pittsburgh-related images, but I wanted to let it be known that the lack of posts has not been due to lack of work.  I have a number of projects I’ve been working on (some FOTP related, some from my “real jobs”..yes, I said jobs).

Nevertheless, here’s a little sample of one of the photographic projects I’ve been working on.  Enjoy!
