This summer has been busy! First, my son Patrick and I made a most excellent road trip out West and visited 11 states in 2 weeks and logged over 7,000 miles on our new Kia Sorento. We had a blast visiting a family reunion in CO, and then WY, MT, ID, UT, and AZ. On the way home from AZ, I drove 1169 miles in one day, stopping only for fuel and food, which broke my prior record of 973 miles set back in 1995 or so, shooting minor league photos for Upper Deck on the east coast.
The guys up at Ole Smoky Moonshine have been busy too. They needed a new 30 second TV commercial spot that showcases their ginormous new expanded store and distillery. I love working with those guys because they really set me free creatively to shoot interesting footage and stills.
While work on my portrait studio has slowed some this summer, I got back in there recently and hired Doug Kiser to remove the rollup door and build me a new perfectly straight wall for the back end of the studio. Wrestling with background paper has been a pain and I was really limited to how many people I could shoot in a family portrait session until now. I have a perfect 16' wide x 12' tall white wall as a background now. I'll be shooting Savannah Rogers in the next few days in the studio so I'll post some images of her senior photo shoot. Savannah drove up to Knoxville with her Mom Elane, all the way from Florida to have me shoot for her; I've known Savannah since she was a baby so it's a treat for me too.
