A few weeks ago, I went with a few of my friends over to Cocoa beach, FL. We just spent the day hanging out at the beach and watching seagulls fight for food near the ocean. Later on we got some tacos at a little local bar. It was a relaxing, fun day and these are a few snaps from it!

Two nights ago I met up with my old friends in the band Punchline, from Pittsburgh, Pa to do a shoot with them. I did a good amount of touring with them back when I was doing merch and playing for the Unsung Zeros so it was great to see them and catch up!

They played at a frat house on UCF campus and I had gotten there right before the sun was setting so we had a beautiful view of the sunset.

The only thing missing from the experience was a nice delicious Primanti Bro’s sandwich but I guess I will have to wait until the next time I am in P-burgh to get that.

Yesterday I had a shoot with a great band, The Jason Sweet Band.  We found a super old couch to use for some of the shots, and what better way to get rid of the couch after then to burn it!  This was the aftermath and photos will be up soon of the shoot!

Last night, a group of my friends and I went all the way out to the Fort Christmas
Historical Park to try and get a good glimpse of the meteors. We drove down a totally creepy succession of roads to get there and were pretty sure we were going to be part of a horror movie on the way out there.

When we got to the park, there were already a number of people camped out with the same idea as us (thinking we were coming to kill them as well) We assured them we were totally sane, and all ended up hanging out to try to view chunks of space rock collide into our atmosphere. It was far too cloudy out to see anything, but we did have a blast and the other party of people had some sparklers so I did a few extended exposure shots and this was one of them!

Maybe I will catch some meteors on my next try! They say third times the charm!

A few weeks ago I was hired out to do a shoot for a great band from right here in Orlando, Boxer and Clover. A bunch of them go to UCF so we were able to use one of the classrooms at the University and it was a super fun shoot. Check them out at www.myspace.com/boxerandclover
