RB Photo and Design

While I am between shoots I figured I would get my strobes out and play around some with my Beauty Dish and Softbox...Heres a few of the self portraits I have done the last couple of days. Enjoy!

I mentioned looking for a photography club last week (there are none in the area) and a friend of mine mentioned I should start one. I wasn't to sure about it, but he got the ball rolling and started a club page on facebook, so it seems we are starting a club. If anyone is in the Southern Indiana area and wants to join just drop me a line.

Today has been a pretty decent day. I was contacted by the editor of Gauge Magazine and looks like I am going to be doing some show coverage and shooting some features/covers for their online magazine. A big thanks to Dan " DoubleD" Davis for giving me the chance to shoot for him. As promised I finally got my pics from the Colts Vs. Titans game uploaded to the computer and ready to put on the web so here are a few shots that I took from about 8 rows from the very top of the stadium. Used my 30D with a 28-105mm lens. It was a little short, but I am happy with the images I got and I am extremely happy with the noise handling since my camera was at ISO 800 for most of the game.

At Texas Roadhouse outside of Indy for lunch. Headed up to the Colts game. My sister gave us tickets for Christmas. I have the camera with me so I will have pics up later tonight/ tomorrow from the game.

Today I got reminded why I love photography so much. A friend of mine lost her son yesterday. I didnt know him to well, but he was a really good kid. 19 years old, way to early to go. Anyhow, he graduated this past spring from High School with  Jeannie's nephew and half brother so I got some shots of my friends son getting his diploma and walking off stage. I took them over to her today on a disk, and she was very thankful to get them. I was so glad to be able to give her something to help her remember her son by. This is what I love about being a photographer, being able to capture and preserve these special memories for people. It is a very fulfilling and rewarding profession.

Had a wonderful Christmas with the family. Got a chance to get pictures of everyone and sit around and catch up a little. My sister got us Colts tickets, so next Sunday we will be going to the last regular season game of the year to watch the Colts play the Titans. Should be a lot of fun! Anyhow, here are a few pics from my family's Christmas get together.

Merry Christmas everyone, we hope you all have a safe and wonderful holiday season!.
