I want to share more of my personal photography in a new series that's all about interesting light that I find and the space it inhabits. What kind of photographer would I be if I didn't chase the light.

End of Summer Baby Photos
The summer may be over but the baby photos keep on going. This is 3 month old Kennedy and we were both hapilly distracted by ceiling fans. I fear I'm too simple minded these days.
Here's an awesome slideshow and some of my favorites. I really enjoy how the blues and yellows really complemented each other.
Wounded Warriors: Jumping for a Purpose Event Photography
in Photography
Hey everyone, a couple of weeks ago I was at Jumping for a Purpose, a charity event organized for Wounded Warriors to go skydiving at Suffolk Skydive. I was there to help Eric, the awesome photographer who owns http://www.rgbimaging.net. My main goal was to get some great photos of the warriors and their jump partners as they landed. Each jumper had an incredible story to share and I met so many great people that day. I got so many great photos, but here are a few of my favorite. Be sure to also check out http://www.woundedwear.org/ a great non profit dedicatd to helping our injured veterans.
This is Bob VandeLinde a Korean war vet who was excited to jump out a plane for the first time that wasn't being shot down.
There were a number of double amputees who got to jump and that special harnesses were used.
They even let me up in the plane, but I was sadly without a parachute, so I had to come back down the boring way.
It was actually a pretty exhausting day, running around trying to capture what I could. I'm really glad I'm able to help out in my small way and I respect everyone involved, the warriors, the sky divers, and the community who all pitched in to give back a little.
And here's some more on my Flickr Gallery.
Here's some links to news articles that covered the day.
