Deep Focus Goes Mobile!

Well, recently I've been sucked into this mobile web trap. While using the mobile web recently I decided that since I've spent so much time working on the new web site design that I could easily make a mobile web version. So, I did.

The mobile web url is www.deepfocus.mobi. If you browse there with your desktop browser it will just redirect you to the .com. So make sure you check it out on your mobile device!

Right now it's fairly basic, mostly because of the limitations to mobile technology, but despite that I will be adding as much as I can to the mobile site.

Drive By Shooting

I've started a new series of photos that I am calling the "Drive By Shooting" series. Here are a two images from that on going series. I'll continue to add more as I get them.

In case the name isn't descriptive enough these are basically shots that I have taken from my car. Some are driving others are at the stop light. Either way they are a lot of fun to look at after.

New Web Site Design.

I've been working on a new web site design off and on for about two months now. I've decided that it's ready enough to launch this week. I most likely will launch the new site some time late late Friday night or Saturday morning.

Here is a screen shot preview of the design:


The front page now has a video player that will eventually host interviews and samples of work. For now it's just going to play a video to remind you of Family Portrait Month in October.

Some of the other changes include: better organized menus, a little more content (even more coming soon), and everything is written in PHP which will allow for site growth in the future.

Also a few changes to the proofing system have been made. When users log in they will be taken directly to their photos. The prices list has be organized again, I'm not sure what happened before but some how they got all mixed up, and now less obtrusive watermarks and proofing numbers on the photos themselves.

Change is good, anyone who's been a client with me for more than 6 months knows that I tend to re-design the website about that often.

Quiet and fun....

Last Friday I was lucky enough to be a part of the most quiet but still very fun weddings I've been to in a while. There were a total of 9 people there even counting me. And that's exactly what this couple wanted. This ceremony took place up at the top of the glen inside Rose Sach's Gardens.

What to do in the passenger seat?

On a long trip back home from a shoot I was in the passenger seat and found that it was very entertaining to take my camera and shoot out the window at the other cars and lights. Here are the results of it...

Last Weekend's Storm...

These lighting strikes were hitting somewhere north east of the Salt Lake. Yes, I like to play in electrical storms.

The Kemp Family

Saturday I was able to enjoy the Kemp Family. Kids will be kids and it turned out it was easier to throw them around instead of getting them to sit down for the photos.





By the way, no kids were harmed in the photographing of this blog entry.

It's been a while...

Well I've been such a slacker on posting new images and things. But I'm going to do better. I have a lot of great photos that I need to get on here.

Last weekend I went camping out near Starvation Reservoir. I had fun floating on the water all day with out the camera, but back at camp I got a few images.

Cactus in the desert... who would have thought.

One of the many hummingbirds flying around the campsite.

Nothing better than campfire by moonlight.
It was a full moon that night.

Believe it or not, this photo was taken after 10pm that night. The moon was very bright.
