Personal Work – January 2012

I’ve found myself loving Arkansas culture.  Specifically outside of the city (Little Rock).  I’ve had to drive to Stuttgart, AR a couple of times for family reasons and couldn’t get enough of the landscape and small towns we would drive through.  To add a little bit more nostalgia, I shot these on film (Fuji Pro 400H) with my mother-in-law’s old Nikon FG.

(And yes, I still shoot weddings, engagements, etc. and will be posting them in a couple weeks)

 

Personal Work – Life Lately and the Mamiya RZ67

My 30th birthday is coming up so my wife bought be an awesome gift…the Mamiya RZ67.

Since I’m new to film, I wanted to use a few rolls as test shots.  So I took the camera with me everywhere I went and captured a few frames.
Here’s my life the last couple of weeks.

Film:
Fujifilm Pro 400H
Ilford Delta 100
Ilford Delta 3200

Personal Work – Florida 2011

After coming back from Haiti, my wife and I went to Florida for a few days.
This was a good time for us.

I, unfortunately/fortunately, didn’t take any pictures until our last night so this post is anything but a summary of our trip.
It’s more of a summary of our last night on the beach in Florida.

Wally Loves Snow

This has been one crazy winter for Arkansas. I’m still a kid at heart and I’m pretty sure I’ll never get to the point where I hate snow. The more the merrier! Fortunately, my dog loves snow just as much. He’s constantly ringing the bell (we have a bell by the door he rings when he needs to go out) so he can go out and play in it.

I took a few shots yesterday of him in the snow…

California :: December 2010

Many of you already know, but I once lived in California and made some pretty amazing friends while being out there.  We have a tradition of visiting either here or there every year (hopefully something that will always continue).  We actually just got back a few days ago from one of these visits.

Many of you also know that I’m horrible at taking pictures while on vacation or really anything from my personal life.  I tried to do a better job this time around but I still need some work.  I didn’t get a chance to take pictures of all our friends but I did get a few.

:: The first few are from Riverside, CA at the Mission Inn ::

:: We then went to visit some of our best friends in the Huntington Beach area ::
