Just thought I would send a little update on something new I’ve been working in to my Random Photography offerings – VIDEO!

As most of you know I’ve been primarily a still and action photographer during my 8 years of owning my own business. But we all should be continuing to grow and change, right? So it has been, and continues to be, a fun learning experience – shooting video is quite a bit different than still photography I’m finding. Mostly, it’s a different way of thinking – you have to think and see in “motion”.  And while rarely a factor in still photography, audio is just as important, if not even more important as video is.

So, I’ve invested in some new equipment – a way cool Nikon D7000 which shoots full HD video at 1920 x 1080 (and other modes also), a good Rode condenser mic (for that all important audio) and am learning the way cool editing process using Final Cut Pro. Really enjoying the process, and wanted to share a bit of it with my reader(s). Hi Mom!

Here’s a short video I made on a recent aerial job for a different client – hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for dropping by, and I hope you’ll keep checking back and come on this Random journey with me!

Sooo….have I got your attention?

I recently had the honor of photographing something really cool with my friend that owns Slice Custom Cakes!

Who knew something this cool would be right here in Kansas City? My friend Lisa Smart has created the ultimate alternative to a regular boring old cake or even cupcakes – Cake Drops! And let me tell you – they are even more delicious than they look!

I’m going to let the photos speak for themselves, but do yourself a favor and go check out her website Slice Custom Cakes, give her a call and surprise your friends, family, customers with a very unique, awesome, and totally TASTY treat!

All the fixin's

I recently had the fun opportunity to work with the cool folks at Aramark, who operate the concessions and merchandising at Kauffman Stadium here in Kansas City.  They are really bringin’ the dogs to the ballpark for the 2010 Royals season, and wanted to highlight the new varieties of hot dogs that will be available for the fans at the ballpark.

There are several new ones being added, and man, they are DELICIOUS! Here’s a few random shots of the new fare, so if you get to a game this year, be sure and check ‘em out!

Yep - that's pineapple, mandarin oranges, ham and more!

And finally, one of my favorites:

MMMMM...BACON

And there are several more that you’ll just have to try for yourself when you come to The K this year.  Who knows? Maybe the Royals will be as hot this season as the new dogs in the stands?
