I have included all of the software/hardware and different cameras, lenses, and tools that I use for photography in the About Me section. It also includes some awesome websites that will help you find great places to shoot.

Currently I am putting together a set of 50 great photography destinations in the Pacific Northwest. All locations are geo-tagged, so you can check them out yourself-----> PACNW Top 50

 

 

The Shot

Jonsrud Viewpoint in Sandy Oregon is an awesome and easy place to catch the sunrise. You can drive right up snap off some shots and retire for the day…. or in my case keep driving hundreds of miles.

 

TIPS: Becoming a Better Photographer

I have a bad habit of comparing my work with that of other photographers. Sometimes I get stuck on doing this, I urge you not to make the same mistake. Why? Well first of all the only thing that really matters is you becoming a better photographer yourself, so if you are improving, who really cares what others are doing. It pulls no weight on your own photography or life in general. So next time you are feeling down about you work, as we all do at time, just remind yourself that hard work and constant shooting will always help you to improve. Negative thoughts and bad habits will only deter you from your goal, and waste your positive energy. Stay away from these habits at all costs, matter of fact, get off this computer and go create something cool!

 

Here is a short video from Ira Glass of NPR, that deals with starting out as an artist. I listen to his "This American Life" show every week. It is amazing inspirational stuff. I would highly recommend the iPhone app as well:) But anyway, this is worth a short listen….. vimeo.com/24715531
