New Jersey Photographer
Quick story of the family portrait session… We pulled up to Liberty State Park in Jersey City, New Jersey. It was just before sunset and we had about an hour to get in some portraits before the sun went down. This was one of the first shots from the session. I noticed the angle and [...]
This was one of the photographs from a recent family portrait shoot. The same one where I asked if I could remove the baby from a specific photograph. This shot happens to be one of my favorites from the day. It’s a simple shot that tells a story. Thanks for reading and happy shooting, Scott [...]
At the recent Asbury Park Photowalk I was playing with my 10-stop neutral density filter a lot. The boardwalk was very busy so I knew removing people would be fun. There are a few things to keep in mind when shooting with a neutral density filter. They’re expensive so be careful You can’t see through [...]
When I noticed this scene I knew the exact angle and spot I wanted to photograph it from. Having the guard’s stand slightly off centered really frames this shot right. Here is where the trick comes in though. Remember when I mentioned removing the baby from a family portrait and the conflict it created for [...]
Another photo from the Asbury Park Photowalk. This scene caught my eye because of the tire tracks pointing to multiple directions. The photo contains leading lines, horizons and a nice warming black & white fine art tone. Thanks for reading and happy shooting, Scott
This photo turned out to be a conflict for me. During a recent family portrait sessions, I asked the couple to set up in these spots, but with their 18-month old near the middle tree. Unfortunately it didn’t work out well as the baby noticed something on the ground. While processing the photos for the [...]

I looked around them, framed the shot in my head, grabbed the exposure and clicked the shutter. I wish I knew what the [...]
Ok so I was never on the Dead Star, but I have been to Asbury Park. This was tagged outside the old Casino on the boardwalk. There were a couple other Occupy Wall Street tags around as well. Thanks for reading and happy shooting, Scott
This is what it looks like when you stand under the Carousel House in Asbury Park, New Jersey. The detail in this building is just incredible.
This was just begging for me to photograph it. The combination of a slightly funny sign and the relaxing ocean. I shot this during the Asbury Park photowalk earlier in November. There is something about empty beaches. As I was putting this post together I thought to myself… “Why do people take pictures? Why do [...]
The Asbury Park Photowalk was a huge success, as you can probably tell from my earlier posts and photos. Before we started walking, the group gathered for a portrait. We were still missing about 4 or 5 people at this point, but this still gives you an idea of how big the group was. I [...]
