Wings v Sharks





In the final regular season meeting of the Wings and the Sharks proved the Red Wings are ready to play hard and defend the Cup. This was probably the hardest hitting game I've seen all season. It was also the return of Claude Limeaux at Joe Louis Arena. He had been absent for 5 years, but still got plenty of boos when he took the ice.

Mott Women's & Children's Hospital Construction Photos







In my quest to develop myself as a more well rounded photographer, I have picked up a new client who will require me to shoot construction. I was pretty happy with the way these turned out. While looking for better angles, I was able to shoot from a basket hanging on a tower crane. It wasn't as scary as I anticpiated...swinging 15 or so stories above the ground.

Wings vs. Avs Feb. 15, 2009





Ok, so I opened my mouth too soon and now the Wings are on a two game losing streak. It was a great game that went into overtime and I did get some good ice level positions so I could shoot the last couple periods and I was on the end for the game winning goal (although it was for the Avs). A few shots I'm happy with here. Let me know what you think.

Wings v Wild...They're Starting To Roll






It's finally starting to look like the Red Wings are starting to make their end of the season run for the Cup. They are starting to click with most lines that are out there. Not any real stellar shots tonight, but still enjoyed shooting.

Detroit Titans v #11 Butler Bulldogs





I don't get to shoot too much basketball anymore even though it is one of my favorite sports to shoot. So a matchup between a local college and the #11 team in the country sparked my interest, especially when I can shoot at Calihan Hall, which is an old fashioned basketball arena that has some nice lighting. Butler ended up winning the game, but the Titans put up a good fight. Looking forward to shooting more hoops.

Wings v Phoenix





Although I shot a few Wings games in Dec. and Jan., Feb. will get me back to shooting a few more games. We start out with the playoff bubble Phoenix Coyotes, coached by "the great one" Wayne Gretzky. It was actually an exciting game to come back to. Nick Lidstrom's game ending, game winning goal brought the win to the Wings. Also is a screen capture of the website that had used one of my pictures the next morning.

I'm Back

Ok, I really did shoot things in Dec. and Jan., but I got lazy and didn't post much...ok anything. I'm back and ready for 2009 and am looking forward to building my business. 2009 is going to be the year that I could possibly make wedding and sports photography my sole profession...which has been my goal for years.
