I am beyond excited to announce that View Finders

I am beyond excited to announce that View Finders has been nominated for an Emmy award!! This is part of the southeast Emmy region and was selected from many regional shows that air in television markets across the Southeast. It is an incredible honor and, honestly, it still has not sunk in. When I began producing this show I had no experience with television production or preparing content for broadcast television. I had a LOT to learn, and I had to learn it fast. Season one was a big success, and I owe a lot of that to my co-host @jmcartisticphotography who helped make it all happen. Season 2 has grown with even more locations and some really beautiful camera work thanks to my co-host @pauldaniel5010 and cameraman @house_of_burnett . The awards ceremony is on June 17th at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Buckhead, and while I certainly do not expect to win the award, it is a massive honor to even be nominated. A huge thank you to the large and ever-growing audience who continues to tune in every week to see more adventures and more beautiful places. We have even more in store for you!!! And also, a massive thanks to the companies and organizations that supported Season 1 and Season 2, which include Troncalli Subaru, REI, Explore Georgia, Terrapin Beer Co, and United Community Bank.

Savannah is a truly magical city, and tomorrow morning on View Finders you will see @pauldaniel5010 and I try to do it justice with our cameras. Not only do we tackle the historic district, but we also head out to Tybee, Cockspur, and Wormsloe. It is jam-packed with history and photography and I think you all will really enjoy it! If you have ever been to any of these locations then tune in because our cameraman @house_of_burnett did an excellent job of capturing their beauty for the world to see. Please share this post to get the word out, and this will be the final episode of the first half of season 2! The next 5 will air this fall.

This image is of the pier on Tybee Island and we had a truly beautiful sunrise to capture. Paul and I dealt with a little bit of adversity and you will hear about the misery we endured to get our images, but the end result was well worth it!

When natural disasters occur, they fill the news c

When natural disasters occur, they fill the news cycle for a short period of time and then it seems like everyone moves on. But the effects of these disasters last for years and even longer, as is the case of the destruction left in the wake of Hurricane Michael. I was passing through the Florida panhandle when I saw this church off the side of the road. I KNEW I had to turn back around to photograph it, because of that door. The door is what caught my eye, and the storm clouds also added to the scene. This is a very long exposure image to create movement in the sky, and it is also a reminder of the lasting effects of storms and hurricanes.

Boneyard beaches are very common among Georgia’s barrier islands, and we were able to explore some truly pristine locations as we filmed two episodes for the upcoming season of View Finders. @pauldaniel5010 and I are VERY excited for the show to premiere on April 1st on Georgia PBS, and we can’t wait to share some of the beauty we experienced during our adventures!

One morning when we were filming on Wassaw Island I saw this old home sitting at the end of a beautiful driveway. This is the only house on the island, which gives it even more intrigue and also makes me a little jealous that they have such a beautiful paradise to explore. There is nothing like the maritime forest found along Georgia’s coast!

About a month ago I was up in the mountains and I went to one of my favorite little spots near Blairsville. They had cleared the overgrown brush next to the road and so I had some new photographic opportunities and compositions, which I took advantage of! If you look closely, you can see Brasstown Bald towering high over this very old home that is being reclaimed by nature. There are even some cows grazing in the field. I love the Georgia mountains, it seems like there are countless photos just waiting to be taken. Have a great week everyone!

Georgia has a stunningly beautiful coast line, and while it is only 100 miles long, it is filled with tucked away islands that most of the general public has never stepped foot on. We spent four days filming on these islands and are VERY excited to bring the episodes to you this coming spring. I captured this image of a sand dollar during a freezing cold sunrise on the deserted beach of Wassaw Island. We were the only ones on the entire island and it was pure magic. Tons of untouched seashells were scattered throughout, and the island was so much fun to explore. I am currently editing the episodes and we got so much footage it is going to be hard to fit it all into the show! I hope you all are doing well and for those of you here in Georgia on this rainy, cold Thursday, maybe this image will bring a little sunshine into your day!

When I give presentations about photography, one of my key themes is creating photos that have impact. Photos that make the viewer stop for a second and think about what they are looking at. Sometimes those photos are extremely simple, like this one right here. Last week it was very cold, but the sky was turning a beautiful pink hue as the sunrise approached. This field of cows had a lot of new calves, and so I waited until a mother and her calf separated from the group. They were up on the top of the ridge, which created a perfect silhouette against the pink sky, and this is the result! I hope you like it, and have a great week!

Some sunrises just look different. This particular one was a stunning array of colors that were so saturated that it almost overwhelmed my sensor. The frozen field and grazing cows just added more to the scene, and I really love how it came out. I hope you are all doing well!

I love the cypress trees found throughout the swamps in South Georgia. They are particularly beautiful in late fall when the needles start to change colors and drop into the water. This is a blended exposure that has a higher shutter speed for the main tree so that it would be sharp (there was a little breeze that day) and then a 15 second exposure of the water with the needles floating by. I hope you like it!

Not too long ago we were filming some episodes along Georgia’s hidden coast, and I got a chance to capture this image of the beautiful maritime forest on Blackbeard Island. This island is difficult to access and is completely uninhabited, but it contains stunning beauty throughout its over 20,000 acres. .

I took this image about two years ago, but since it is Christmas Eve I think it is worth a share. I knew the Christmas Star was going to be coming up over this field with three crosses, and so I showed up with plenty of time to craft this image. I photographed the cows at dusk, then waited for the lights to come on and illuminate the crosses. Finally I captured the Christmas Star at a high ISO (allowing for a tiny aperture and therefore the sparkle) while it was still in the frame. I blended all of those images together to this final result, and I do like how it came out. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and feel free to share this with anyone else who might appreciate the sentiment!

I just got back from filming episodes along the Georgia coast for the past 4 days. We explored many of the more hidden islands, including some that most people have never even heard of. With a lot of help from the Ossabaw Foundation and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, we were taken to some truly stunning locations on these islands where we captured tons of images and some gorgeous video. I really can’t wait for these two episodes to air in the spring, because I think the audience will appreciate just how special the Georgia coast is. Here is an image I took at sunrise on Ossabaw Island. I had already taken several images I liked, but I noticed the sun coming up and so I positioned myself for this old, worn tree to be cradling the sun in its “arms”, so to speak. I love the shape of the tree, and I am happy with how this image came out. Have a great day everyone, and try to stay warm!

Cotton and cows. Two things that are prevalent throughout the southern landscape. So when they came together I had to get some images, and this particular cow was very curious about what I was doing. I was fortunate, because it all came together in that moment and the beautiful light of the setting sun added just a little something extra to the tranquil scene of this cow in the cotton.

The last time I was up in the mountains, the fall

The last time I was up in the mountains, the fall colors were starting to get a little past peak. But this tree was still holding on to autumn, and the brilliant yellow really stood out against the moody, foggy landscape of this early morning. I’m not on IG quite as much anymore, but I am still taking a ton of photos and have a lot of different projects I am working on. I am excited to share that I am one of the featured presenters at the Unique Photo Camera Show up in the NJ/NYC area, and will be presenting there December 9-11. I haven’t been to Manhattan in a LONG time, so I am very much looking forward to getting some images while I am up there, and hopefully the weather cooperates! If you are in the area, feel free to come to my presentation or one of my workshops! The best part is: the entire event is completely free!
