Summers helping family with a campground we owned, the rest of the time running a photography accessory company, The Lens Flipper . Seems that I […]

My first WPPI experience turned out to be exactly what I had expected- overwhelming (in a good way), exciting, educational, and most importantly inspiring. My first day consisted of taking one inspiring class and checking out the show floor for the first time. I was introduced to dozens of new products to say the least. […]

One of my scarriest times as a photographer

Written by Doug on January 30, 2014 — Leave a Comment

After shooting a job in New Hampshire, a friend and I walked through a state park. At the time I was a heavy smoker and the idea of walking really did not appeal to me. To make a long story short, It was this defining moment, a little scared I met a bear, but at […]

One of the coolest items I seen at CES this year was the Tech Slinger (www.techslinger.com). It’s a harness for your tablet, cellphone, and who knows what else you might have to carry. It can be a single or double sling. I used CES to test out the Tech Sling. I must say a full size iPad3 AND […]
