FxCamera

So I found this great little app on the Android Market that replaces the standard, not-so-great Droid camera app.  The app is called FxCamera and it is the closet thing Droid has to “The Best Camera” iPhone app.  With FxCamera, you can choose numerous different settings like “Toy Camera”, which will give you Lomo & Holga type images, “Polaroid”, “Fisheye” and a classic “Warhol” effect.  I have only really used the “Toy” settings but have really enjoyed the images that come out of it.  For the next few months, I’m going to have a series of posts showcasing images taken with the app.

I don’t always carry my 5D with me due to the bulk and inconvenience but I do always have my Droid on me and as Chase Jarvis would say, “The best camera is the one you have with you.”

So, have you heard?

AdamMintonPhoto.com has finally gotten a well deserved and needed update.

www.adammintonphoto.com

Casey and I are very excited about what the future holds for us and because of that, we thought it best to update the site and get ready for the rest of 2010 and the years to come.  The new site boasts some new images that have previously never been posted before.  While preparing for the new site, I basically went through most of my portfolio and reworked every image.  It has been a long but enjoyable process.  At this moment in time, the new site showcases about 1/3 of the portfolio I like to share.  Hopefully, within the next month or so, all of my portfolio will be available for viewing.

I hope you enjoy the changes.  New images will be posted bi-weekly so keep an eye out for new work.  Feel free to give feedback as well.

Until then, mosey on over to www.adammintonphoto.com and check out the new site.

Thanks for all of your support.

Adam & Casey

February is for love and studio sessions

It’s been a while.

I have been super bogged down with projects galore and I thought I would give everyone a sneak peak at one of those projects.  Here are a few images from a series I am working on currently for an exhibition later this year.  This was a very fun shoot to put on.  Both models are very lively, cheerful ladies and working with them was a honor.  There will be several more of this images coming soon.  Stay tuned.

This image was isn’t actually part of the series but I thought I would include it for good measure.

Charlotte Skyline from Banner Elk

Photo by Landis Woffordl/Grandfather MountainPhoto by Landis Woffordl/Grandfather Mountain

Landis Woffordl captured this beautiful image from Grandfather Mountain this morning.  On the horizon, you can see the Charlotte skyline. Charlotte is over 100 miles away so, for this shot to be taken, there has to be near perfect weather conditions.  Great shot Landis.

2010 looks to be very promising.  I have a ton of things planned for my photography and personal life.  As far as photography goes, you will be seeing more and more work on my site and this blog because I am challenging myself to shoot a certain amount of images per month.  I am shooting more weddings this year as well so expect more and more images of love birds on here.

In my personal life, I have some exciting things coming up.  First, I will be getting married in August.  How stinking exciting is that?  I can answer that… VERY EXCITING. Secondly, I will be turning 23.  That honestly isn’t that exciting but still note worthy I think.  Thirdly, I will be reading all of the Lord of the Rings books.  I got them all for Christmas and my goal is to read through all of them.  I’m really, really good at starting books but I think the whole finishing a book thing is a little over rated.  2010, however, is the year of finishing books.

New wife, new work and new books.  2010, here I come.

A Christmas Wedding

A beautiful couple, Chad & Julie, tied the knot on the 26th of December in Boone, North Carolina.  The wedding was very intimate and included only family and close, close friends.  It was a lovely wedding and it was very obvious that Chad & Julie are 100% crazy for each other.  Below is a sneak peek of some images to come from their wedding.

Her laugh is contagious

Winter Wonderland

So, for those of you not living in the South, we were hit with the biggest snow storm in nearly a decade. Most people lost power and couldn’t get out because of all the snow. I, however, was fortunate enough to be able to get out. Twenty-eight inches of snow is no match for a ‘04 Subaru Forester.

2009 Snow Storm in North Carolina

Once the sun went down, and the snow froze over, some friends and I went out to build some igloos and that we did.  Not only did we make 2 igloos big enough for a bear, we also built 20 feet of tunneling to connect the two ice homes.  It was most impressive.

If you played in the snow, tell us about it.  What snow activities did you participate in this past couple of weeks?

Haircut 101

Last week, I had the honor to work with some wonderful models for an advertisement for an amazing salon in Boone, NC, Haircut 101.  These ladies were wonderful to work with and even though it was near 30˚ outside, they were troopers and busted through the chilly winds like it was nothing.
