In July, I was invited to host a tech talk on using APIs at JEBCommerce, an agency partner of ShareASale. JEB runs a monthly knowledge sharing session where employees disconnect from their day-to-day in order to learn new skills. Tech talks tend to cover topics that the layman may find dry. As such, in addition […]
Fireworks On The 4th Series
Taken at a fireworks show on Crystal Lake in Illinois. I took 1 second exposures of the show every five seconds. This process captured some rather unique shapes and colors. I look forward to attempting this process again.
The Florida Keys
I traveled to the Florida Keys in order to film the Lyrid Meteor Shower. Unfortunately. The moon was waxing towards full and was up during the peak viewing hours for the meteor shower; however, that didn’t stop me from capturing some awesome star trails after moon set. Landing in Miami, I grabbed a rental car […]

While Death Valley, CA was the biggest photo shoot, Baltimore, Michigan, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Denver were all shooting locations included in this post.

On August 21st, I chased the Great American Solar Eclipse and landed in Dixon Springs State Park in southern Illinois.
