Gramps is proud..forgive me..
« on: December 06, 2021, 04:19:44 AM »
.
  Now, I never did anything great in my life..  ..But some of my offspring I believe, have done so.  In view that my son & grandson have received an international (bronze) award for a video commercial, while competing against the big
 guys you see on the networks, I would like to present some of the work.
  My son also was hailed by a peer review board on the west coast.  They peer review professions across the country and then rate them.  They recently picked the best 11 commercial photographers in our section of the state..and placed him first.

   So, unless Bill or Matt complain, i would like to present some of his work, along with short explanations..i believe most would enjoy it.
  Below see the "Telly" awards; one for my son, the other for my grandson.  Those things are about 15" tall and HEAVY..must weigh 10-12 pounds each !

   My son does ALL subjects in photography, which I will show with explanations.. in no particular order.

   Enjoy, please..
   First off..room with a view..  ski slopes out the windows.

  Second; typical high ender..

   Third..A ski cabin in nearby ski resort.

  Much real etate is sold over the web now.  My son uses what he calls the "wow factor".. that is, hit them with your best shots right up front!  People scan through homes on the web..perhaps hundreds of them..
  With today's short attention span, if they aren't stopped short by the first 3 shots...they will move on..

  (remember to click on photos a second time..and use sliding side bars to examine.)

  Interests cover a wide array of clients..

   A stadium..

   Even food..for such as Dash Door, restaurants etc.

  ...Or a converted railroad depot !

  modeling;

   The young lady in the red dress is absolutely stunning..even with zero makeup.  She is now working in NY City.
  Sadly, one of her last few published photos were somewhat undignifying for a girl of her class.   
   Being a Christian, my son tells models if they want 'risque' photos, there are others who will do them.

  Ladies on paddle boards..advertising paddle boards plus the lady in blue, has the swim suit line.

  Last: Sefi at the brink  of the falls..a local hidden (not well known) falls.

  Thanks, Phalanx;
 
  He does many commercials and inter industry corporate introductions.  I was with him when he did this one for Abbot Furnace of St Mary's,PA .  It demonstrates the competence of a good drone pilot..note how he flew throughout th ewhole manufacturing process.

   Then there is another way to show your home for sale..shows interior...then does crazy cutaway..something called "matter port" I think.  Pricey, but worth it to show off a high end home.  BTW, he has even done this with a submarine....no not a sandwich, but a WW2 submarine in a park.  This one just a  short demo clip.

   He also does finished product shoots in studio, for industry catalogs, this one for bulk food handling fittings and equipment.

Well IG, I’ve seen your work and I’d say you passed along an artist gene.

Well IG, I’ve seen your work and I’d say you passed along an artist gene.

   Thanks Bugeye;  There seems to be an artistic gene running through the family.  You've seen my son's work, then grandson #3 with his exotic wood and knives, then #2 with his preaching, DJ work, videography and he can do pencil drawings and cartoons that are sharp.. #1 Grandson keeps his artistry as a gunsmith, building long range accurate rifles, his specialty.  My cousin now retired, used to paint the cover pics for magazines like Field & Stream & Outdoor Life etc.  My late sister used to painnature scenes of Alaskat .. she also painted gold panning pans with local Alaskan scenery...just for extra money at the souvenir shops there.

  Now I want to show you some other artists..here is a drone shoot.. I was with my soon made it, of a formerly abandoned local church building, that somebody refurbished.  The exterior is great enough..but the interior knocked my socks off!

   How many abandoned, small churches have been left to moulder away..with nobody even seeing the potential?
  Here is one about 20 miles from my home, in an exclusive ski community..a little old town that, when I as in high school, was just a poor, lumbering town..until somebody discovered the ski slope potential.
   
Take a look at this old church building..does it give anybody an idea ?  I'll try to find interior shots.

  Here's Kristen..probably his favorite model to work with.  I have worked with him on shots where Kristen was
  utilized.  She is not only a great model physically, but her joyful, positive and bubbly attitude makes the job much more pleasant.
   She and her husband recently had a little baby girl..and she is so proud.  By appearance one would  never
   guess she were a recent mom..  She must have a great exercise regimen.
