NIXI GOES TO NEW YORK

This is a commercial shoot of sorts, the grass and bed on the left hand side of the image is the product.      
 The "Porch Potty" is a product manufactured to allow your dog to relieve him or herself without your help.(mostly for people without yards or indoor dogs that gotta go when your away) We wanted to show the product in an environmental setting that communicates urban living while not being an eyesore. Sort of a Pottery Barn look.   In this image, the cityscape, apples and fire hydrant were also added in in post production. I added a before and after to show the original and the final image.  I really think this is a great idea if your a city/condo/work all day no one at home to let the dog out type of person.  Check out the website at,  www.porchpotty.com

LONG BEACH...WHO KNEW?

I shot a wedding on the Queen Mary in Long Beach California and to my surprise, the down town area looked kinda nice!  I admit I had a picture in my head of an ugly old run down port city that was dirty and had the stench of crude oil in the air, a place I try to avoid at all cost.  At least from the deck of the Queen Mary it didn't look so bad.  Sorry Long Beach, my bad.

A few from the wedding on the Queen Mary.

PULL UP A CHAIR

Comfort rules. You want to be able to sit in a good chair comfortably for a few hours and be able to talk and enjoy a glass of wine. There's nothing worse than sitting in an uncomfortable chair.
