Street Photograpy

Rather than sit a desk or blow money on a sit-down lunch, one of my favorite things to do during the week is to shoot street on my lunch break. Here’s a selection of images from the last year.

A Shadow of Himself

This is probably the best picture I’ve ever taken. Sure, my critical eye can find some technical problems (I goofed on the exposure, which introduced some noise and the subsequent noise reduction in Lightroom has eaten away at some detail), but in my years in this game I’ve not caught many moments. This one, to […]

Street Signs

One of my unknown perils of being a new-ish father was the rapid accumulation of flab after the boucing bundle of joy enters this world.

Down The Shore

I’m not a beach guy. At all. The last thing I ever want to do is sit on a hot sandy beach for hours on end. Sadly for my vacation plans, my wife loves it and the little guy is following in her footsteps. So, in what is quickly becoming a summer trend that I […]

A Day at the Zoo

On his very first birthday, I took a day off from work to hit the Philadelphia Zoo with Max and my wife, who was lucky enough to be home for spring break. A Wednesday, we were looking forward to the zoo being relatively empty while we enjoyed the gift of a zoo membership from my […]

The Dam at Ithan Valley

As it continues to get a little warmer each week, I finally felt comfortable to stomp around a creek and risk getting my feet (and gear!) wet. This past weekend, I dragged my family out to Ithan Valley park in Radnor, PA, to shoot the waterfall that cascades over the old dam. We had originally […]
