The Photog

SMHerrick PhotographySo Who & What are or is The Photog

This is where I am supposed to write all sorts of stuff about my education, what type of art I studied and who my favorite photographer is. Blah…

I will share with you that I love my Van’s, as pictured here. I wear them as often as possible. I won’t wear them when I mow the lawn or when I photograph your wedding. Grass stained Van’s are not cool and checkered shoes are really uncool at the wedding… or are they?

I have always liked U2 but have no shame in confessing that my iPod is a disastrous mix of everything. I hit Billboard 100 every couple of weeks and pick up all the latest. Good trick, try it sometime. I like Gaga and P!nk but can crank Amadeus any day of the week as well.

I like and use Canon gear. Natural lighting is awesome but can always stand to have a little help from a strobe. I do not like canvas backgrounds that are supposed to look like a cathedral or grand hall of some sort. I can go so far as to say I don’t get them… not a clue.

I take photography very seriously and life, well, life is serious enough on its own. Have fun, smile, laugh, cry, scream, dance, play and enjoy. Just make sure the photographer you choose is doing the same.

Do you like to watch Videos?  I really get a kick out of these Animoto clips I have strewn about the place.  I try not to force-feed them to you.  Watch if you have a second or two.  The one below dives in to my Photography Philosophy… sort of.

Here is another… Little acting included…
