Planning Ahead

Back in Mid October I went to the butt crack of West Virginia to shoot some time lapses but that trip was pretty much for scouting purposes.  I have some serious plans in the late spring of 2013 for this big beast you see below.

Go BIG or go home

or in this case, go as high up as you possibly can to shoot timelape stuff.  I was in a tower in Roslyn last night shooting 3 time lapses from the 27th floor.  If you know D.C. / Northern VA, you know about the height restrictions.  This may be the highest roof in the entire area.  Here are 2 stills from 2 of the 3 time-lapses I shot.  Enjoy

Food it's what's for dinner

People need to eat.  Support your local farmers

Plan B

This weekend was hit or miss and today was the miss day.  I got to this park just outside of Old Town Alexandria to shoot a timelapse of the sunrise but right where the sun popped up was overcast.  I took a few random photos to make me stop thinking about how I should've stayed in bed.

Street Music

If you walk around D.C. you'll find tons of street guys play steal drums, buckets, saxophones or guitars.    This guy was killing it solo.

Sunset from the Lincoln Memorial

Today I went to the Lincoln Memorial to shoot a timelapse of the fabulous D.C. / VA traffic and the sunset.  This is not a still from it but I wanted to do a long exposure to see how it looked.  The timelapse it self came out well.

Sunrise Timelapse

After partying it up big time last night with my lady or in other woods watching a movie until 2am, I woke up at 5:30 to head to the Mount Vernon area to do a timelapse of the sunrise.  The spot I set up camp was the first time I've been and I plan on going back for sure.

The Eastern Market

Today I went to the Eastern Market to get some meat and lots of it.  It's also a great spot to take some photos.

Petting Zoo

This weekend after I completed a commercial shoot I headed over and met Erin and her niece at the Reston Zoo to pet animals.

Pacers Running Store projects

For the past month I've been doing a series of video projects for Pacers Running Stores.  They range from product skits to store profile videos.  I don't want to load up the blog with every video but here are a few.  

This weekend

On Saturday I was supposed to have a video shoot but that was cancelled so instead of sleeping in, I decided to head to Great Falls to check the flood damage that bitch hurricane Sandy left behind.  I ended up shooting a few time lapses over a 2 hour period.
