around the net: volume 9 - how prophotolife got here

Friday, June 13th, 2008

Today's post actually turned into two posts. In this installment: how prophotolife got to where it is. Tomorrow I'll post the continuation: where prophotolife.com is headed. "Today, on a very special episode of Around the 'Net..." This has been one of the funnest, busiest weeks of my (pro photo) life. The highlight ...

around the net: volume 8

Friday, June 6th, 2008

Another great week here in Cincinnati. Yesterday was a fun photo shoot at the Newport Aquarium (Greater Cincinnati area) of their interactive Frog Bog exhibit (over 20 species of frogs on display). We covered both photographs and video of the exhibit for a new client, the creators of the installation. ...

Friday, May 30th, 2008

It's been another busy week at prophotolife / Daylight Photo. Last weekend's shoot was great fun, we photographed an actor / comedian as 16 different characters. Once I get client approval I'll share the images here. This week I've also been putting together the video for Monday, it's a real ...

around the net, volume 6

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

Maybe it's because I used to sell cameras and it just struck my funny bone, but the funniest thing I've read in a while is How to Frak Your Next Digital Camera Purchase. I read it twice. The guys at 1001 Noisy Cameras have a great, dry sense of humor ...

around the net, volume 5

Friday, May 16th, 2008

I have to start by mentioning an arresting photo that Strobist ran a couple days ago. This is honestly the cutest photograph I've ever seen. No amount of propping, styling or casting can create an image like that, it's the real deal. Plus the lighting is so painterly...it really is ...

Friday, May 9th, 2008

Wow, what a week. Looking back at the ground we covered the past few days I hope no one minds if I keep the info light this Friday. We've both earned a break from learning so let's just sort of ease into the weekend, maybe even grab an hour or ...

around the net, volume 3

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

What is the future of photography? Specifically, for photographers like me, working for commercial clients in a midwestern market? The professional photography industry is changing in interesting ways, ways that all photographers may not be aware of. "Still" photography is enjoying a renaissance and the quality level of amateur and semi-professional ...

around the net, volume 2

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Today's look around the net has a little something old and a little something new. First, the new: You know what's cool? Seeing David Hobby (Strobist.com founder) in the pages of USA Today (both articles and videos) this past Tuesday. I pretty much assume everyone knows what Strobist is...if you don't, just ...

Friday, April 18th, 2008

Welcome to volume #1 of Around the Net, the weekly prophotolife round up. It's been a great week, lots of links and info to share. Things have been busy: blogging, working with a great new client on location and prepping for tonight's gallery show. I'd like to give prophotolife readers ...
