Hello everyone! Its been a minute since I have done an “official” Photo Friday post but I got something awesome lined up for you this week. I recently took a trip to Cumberland Island for an awesome camping experience with my girlfriend. I haven’t been camping in quite a while but when you combine perfect weather with camping on a beach you really can’t go wrong. We snapped off quite a few photographs and got a bunch of great ones. If anyone out there is interested in looking into taking your own camping trip at Cumberland Island you can get some more information at their website.
Some of you might recognize this weeks photographer not for his photography but for a little viral video from a few years ago. Thats right, Noah Kalina is the maker and star of the famous YouTube video where he takes a picture of himself every day for 6 years. Little did I know when I first saw that video that he was a photographer himself. He’s been making a name for himself more and more in the commercial world and has been producing some really great work lately. One of my favorite essays on his website is his “What Happens in Vegas” essay. Its a series of self portraits taken all over landmarks in Vegas with the same facial expression every time. This essay is only a small example of Kalina’s work and talents. Check out more of this series after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
We had so much fun duking it out against Esperanza last night at Graveyard Tavern that we’re already talking about doing it again! We’ll go even bigger next time! Thank you to everyone who came out and witnessed the throwdown, and special thanks to those who participated as part of Team Process. The final score was 3 - 2 in favor of Process! We won the categories of Darts, Pool, & Bearfights. Esperanza kicked our butts in Arm-wrestling and Sticker High-jump.
I’m in TX this weekend and I decided to check out the monument-of-excess that Jerry Jones built for the ‘Boys. The field isn’t laid out right now because they are busy setting the stage up for the U2 concert on Monday night. As you can see, the highly-controversial scoreboard has been raised to 110 ft to set up the stage area for the U2 bros to run around.
About a month ago, we were contacted by Kristina Feliciano, from Stockland Martel Blog. Kristina is the one responsible for making it one of the best photography blogs out there. For those of you who may not know, Stockland and Martel represents some of the brightest and hottest talent in the photography industry, to include Georgia’s own: Liz Von Hoene and Jim Fiscus. Kristina had read one of our Photo Friday posts about Stockland Martel photographer, Hans Gissinger. She thought it would be fun if Hans and I got a chance to speak again, and catch up since the last time we spoke. Like before, I decided to do a photo for Hans in appreciation for taking the time to speak to me. Here is a link to that conversation. Big thanks to Hans, Kristina, and the Stockland Martel crew. We love collabos! Kristina, let’s do this again soon. Enjoy, ya’ll.
I apologize about the lack of updates lately. We, among other ATLiens, have experienced being flooded out from historic rains over the past few weeks. Here are some photos taken at our apartments by Jared Dalcourt this past Monday. Read the rest of this entry »
I found some really awesome videos on the world wide web this week one of which was done by an Australian photographer by the name of Keith Loutit. After looking a little bit more I found that Loutit had a whole series of videos that use a combination of tilt-shift lenses and time-lapse photography. Take these two things and combine them into video and you get some really amazing imagery. Here are a few of my favorites after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
Today I got back all but one roll (stupid, I know) of the rest of my film from my trip to Seattle. I had not used a Holga for years but I bought one before this trip just to see what I could get. Every one of these cameras is different and its always cool to see the differences.
This week I bring to you some of my own work from recent photo shoots I have been working on. Most of these are out-takes and behind the scenes images. Hope you all enjoy them! Read the rest of this entry »
What’s up world?? This is Joe Martinez, taking over for my good friend Ross for this week’s Photo Friday. I wanted to share some images I created during my recent trip to Greece last month. This is my second trip to Europe this year, and my first time in the Mediterranean. I definitely took advantage of the beautiful weather, good food, and amazing scenery. It was also a great opportunity to practice a fun technique that some of you may have seen floating around the internet. “Tilt-shift photography” is a selective focus technique using a specialized lens that controls the orientation of the plane of focus of a particular scene or subject. The results vary, but it’s possible to achieve what some have dubbed “fake miniature” photography, creating the illusion of a miniature or toy model look. Some clever Photoshop enthusiasts found a way to do this without the use of this lens making the technique available to anyone with a little patience, the right image, and few Photoshop tools. A simple Google search will provide you with several tutorials on how to achieve your own tilt-shift images. More T-S photos from Greece after the jump! Read the rest of this entry »
This week I share with you The Photographic Dictionary. The concept is pretty simple, to define words thru imagery. If you’re looking for a good place to get lost on the internet this Friday I highly recommend checking out this website. There is a ton of great young talent to check out and they even take submissions for words and post a new photographers work every day in the fresh meat section. Here are just a few of my favorites from the dictionary. Read the rest of this entry »
This week I bring to you the work of Adam Krause. I first meet Adam several years ago on a cross country road trip I took while I was in college. Spending 10 days in a car with someone can be a really amazing experience and with Adam things were never dull. After the road trip he went back to Orlando and I went back to Jacksonville and we would run into each other on occasion but that was about it. Then a few years ago, I was looking through a photo magazine and noticed he was picked to be one of the top 30 photographers under 30 and I was shocked! Since then Adam has been putting out more and more work and he was recently published in American Photography. Check out more of his work after the jump.
Last week I was fortunate enough to visit my dad and grandparents in Seattle. I was born out in the Washington state area and its always a great feeling heading back out there. I shot a lot of images of my grandparents and my father as well as some sights from my adventures around the city. If you have never been out to Seattle then I would do yourself a favor and go out there as soon as you get the chance. Its a pretty rad city with tons of stuff to do. This collection of images is just a small amount of what I shot while I was there and hopefully I will have some more for you once I get my film back from the lab. Check out my photos after the jump.
