Interview day with the staff of .

Our client is a Hollywood movie producer. He was amazed at the image quality, which reminded him of $30,000 Arri or RED Cine cameras.

We’re in a great time, when professional cinema cameras can be acquired for a fraction of the cost ( FX3).

But lighting and audio are the true heroes. It’s the .lighting 600X and 600D doing the hard work.

Real estate shoots are different than A&D shoots. In RE, I have a couple hours and need to be quick. In A&D I’m on the client’s time frame and will take all the time needed to find and build the shot. Every once in a while in RE I make an image I’m proud to have in my A&D portfolio. Proud, as well, to work with .realty, and

You may have noticed I've tried posting this several times. I'm testing HDR imagery which looks WAY better where supported.
Swipe to compare HDR vs SDR version of the image. If "HDR" is as bright as "SDR", you are seeing the full rendering of the image. If the text is faint, you have partial HDR support. If you see a grey box with no text, you do not have HDR support with your current device / settings / account.

Note that the IG iOS app isn't using full iPhone HDR capability at the moment. View on Android or a computer for best results at this time.

Ev0lution of a Passion

I flew from Big Island of Hawaii to Cape Town, South Africa. I found breathtaking landscapes, exotic animals, and amazing people. I found a renewed sense of enthusiasm for life by capturing and sharing the beauty and wonder of the world with my camera. Returning to the US, I toured the West Coast in a camper van, finding the most beautiful forests, mountains, and waterfalls. My passion for photography exploded, and I printed my first photo book.

Researching how to film my own tutorials, something clicked. The next level of photography for me is video production. Combining movement and sound to imagery opens a door for an emotional connection with the community. I realized my background with music and photography come together and make me able to offer something special to the world. I hope you’ll agree!

Thanks for joining me on this journey!
