EMT for INK

Ink Magazine asked me to shoot some more photos for them a few weeks ago, and this time I had the pleasure of meeting Michael Ny. Michael is a current VCU student who is also volunteering his time at the Bensley-Bermuda Volunteer Rescue Squad. The organization was established in 1964 and today serves Chesterfield county as "an all-volunteer agency dedicated to providing outstanding emergency medical care to the sick and injured". I had the opportunity to drive over to the station for a quick tour and everyone I met seemed like a really great group. Check them out below, and pick up this year's last issue of Ink on the VCU campus April 15th!

Weekly Ramblings

Spring is on the way, I can feel it! I even made it a point to pull all of my shorts out of storage today and wear a pair around town with my palm tree shoes. We can only hope that all of this cold, nasty weather is behind us. Only 13 days left to the official season change, so don't forget to mark your calendars for free Rita's Italian Ice!

So no more Olympic news since they are over now, but check out this awesome swag that the Olympic photographers got! Yes, that is a mug, and if they ever go on sale I will definitely be one of the nerds that buys one.
---
I just found out that Sarah and I will be cruisin' to Bermuda at the end of May to celebrate her graduation! Nothing beats a cruise, and I can't wait to take some island photos!

And because more pictures can never be a bad thing, here's a shot that caught my eye of my friend and fellow photo nerd Shawnee while we were out enjoying the amazing weather today. Have an awesome week everyone!

MOOOO......

I promised in my last post that today's entry would be of a new variety. As a lover of everything photographic, I plan on having a feature of my new blog-site be reviews of products that I feel other photographers as well as my clients can use to enjoy their photos. I know how much I love finding out about fun new photo products and ideas, so hopefully I will be able to share something every now and again that one of you may find new and interesting.

For my first product review, I have chosen the good people over at Moo.com. I just recently received my newest batch of business cards from Moo and could not be happier. I have been a fan of their products for awhile and just love the look and feel of their brand in general. Moo is basically a printing company that provides products such as postcards, business cards, stickers, etc but there is one thing that made them stick out in my mind when I first stumbled onto them. Ordering a pack of 50 business cards? Have 50 awesome photos? Well guess what, you can put a different photo on every.single.card. And it doesn't cost anything extra. This may not be a big deal for cards of corporate upper management types, but for someone in the visual arts world it is amazing. Being able to have an entire portfolio of images in your pocket to select from each time someone asks for your card makes so much sense.

Moo also isn't just for people running a business, they have tons of products that anyone would find fun to display their photos on. If you are a client and have a whole DVD worth of photos, don't just stick it in a drawer somewhere. Pick some of your favorites to have printed up as Minicards to give to your friends, or to display in the Mosaic Frame that you can change every day. From party announcements to gift tags, there are all kinds of ways to use these fun little things. So if your a photographer looking to market yourself, or just someone who hasn't looked at their photos anywhere but on a screen for way too long, head on over to Moo.com and take a look around. I'll leave you with a photo of my newest batch of cards, if you see me on the street be sure to ask for one!
