Monday morning Rapid City, South Dakota greetings to one and all!

We are on the road once again and what a surprise that is to some of you! 🙂 Last week we had a shoot over by Omaha, Ne. and now this week we’ll be in Colorado for a shoot as well. One of the very nice things for us is that we are able to combine a little fun in with our work and that makes these great road trips for us. We were able to make a little zig in our zag on the way out West and spent yesterday at Badlands National Park and also exploring some of the back roads as well. One of our stops was in the very small town of Scenic, SD. If your driving from Rapid City to Badlands National Park on Rt. 44, you’ll come across the semi ghost town of Scenic. There’s one gas station and a few houses and that’s about it, but back in the day, there was a little bit more here. They had a saloon and the jail was right next door, so you can only imagine what would happen at this place on a nightly basis!!! Good times indeed!!! 🙂

Here’s a couple of our snaps from Scenic, South Dakota.

Next week will be the 4th of July holiday weekend, so if you’re going to be traveling like we will be, make it a safe one between the hot dogs and fireworks! Thanks as always for taking the time to check out our work as well!

Monday morning Peoria greetings to one and all!

I was out in New Mexico this past week and one of my stops along the way was the City of Rocks State Park in New Mexico. I made my first visit there about seven years ago and I was fascinated by the different formations of rocks that are there. It’s a concentrated group of free-standing rocks that are quite large in some spots and that makes for an interesting place to visit. They also have camping sites in and around the different formations so you can really connect with the surroundings and get back to nature.

Here’s a couple of my snaps from my day at the City of Rocks!

We’ve got a pretty busy week coming up and then we are on the road again before the 4th of July holiday weekend. Summer is here and it’s our busy time indeed!

Thanks again for taking the time to check out our photos and we hope that you have a great week to come!!!

Sign, Sign, everywhere a sign!

Monday morning New Mexico greetings to one and all!

One of the things that I’ve always loved is stuff that’s “old school”. It can be anything from a vintage car to some cool deco architecture on a building. There’s something about the style of things from the past that probably never will come back again that’s always been intriguing and interesting to me. The other thing that I find fascinating is seeing these things and wondering how long they will be around.

On my road trip to New Mexico on Sunday, I saw a bunch of vintage signs from some places that are long gone and I had to stop and shoot them becuase you just don’t know how long they will be around. The next time that I might come that way, the old buildings and signs could be long gone! I picked out a few of my favorite snaps and there’s something very fun to me about seeing these old designs and styles of signs!

Thanks as always for taking the time to check out our work and we hope that you have a great rest of the week!!!

Back on the farm

Monday morning greetings to one and all!

We are rocking and rolling and shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that knows us and also knows that this time of the year is our busy season! It’s all good though and we are loving it!

We’ve been out on the road with our friends at LG Seeds and made quite the road trip a week ago. We traveled to Minnesota, Iowa and Indiana over four days and stopped at eight different locations to shoot customer testimonial photos and video. It’s amazing to think that we would visit our neighboring states and still travel over 1500 miles in just four days. When it was all said and done, the trip was well worth all the effort and we got a lot of great content for LG Seeds to use in the coming months.

This week I’m sharing Jan’s photos of the different farming people that we interviewed on our trip. I’ve always loved shooting candid photos of people when they aren’t on camera and you can get some of the best and most relaxed images of people. When you see these photos that Jan took, you’ll see what I mean. Lots of smiles and laughs and to me these are pure money photos! At some point when we get some of the video testimonials put together, we’ll share those as well. I don’t want you to think that I’m just sitting on my butt while Jan’s doing all the work!

Here’s eight of Jan’s great candid photos for LG Seeds!

It’s time for us to get going, we’ve got another busy week and then we are off and on the road once again! We hope that you’re going to have a great rest of the week and thanks for taking the time to check out our work!
