Free Downloads: Digital Studio Chroma Key Backdrops
I just finished making these digital backdrops to keep in my stock file. These are nice to have on hand for a quick backdrop, especially to use with a chromakey or green screen. Feel free to download them and use them in your own projects. Just do not make the original files available for download, distribute them, or sell them.

They are easy to use! Simpy drag the border into a new layer over the photo you are using it on, or load it into your wedding album software.You can change blending modes, transform, use a gradient mask, layer style, or do anything else to them for a completely new and unique look.

New Horseman view camera
I want to thank Beate Peterson for the great deal on my dream camera!
This is a Horseman LX 4x5 with a Schneider 210mm APO Symmar lens. I have wanted to slow down and use a view camera for a long time. Now I have one that I can grow into.

Weekend Wedding
I had the honor of photographing a great couple over the weekend. Whitney and Dan, the parents, and the entire wedding party were very easy to work with, and I had a great time!
This will be my first time using Zenfolio. I have heard nothing but praise for them, so I am going to give it a shot. I will tell everyone how it turns out.

How To Use Photo Borders
I have uploaded the photo border instructions to GoogleDocs.
You can download the file here.
This is a .pdf file that shows step-by-step how to use the photo edges in Photoshop. The instructions should be close for other photo editing programs that use layers.

Take Another Look at Your RAW Files
I've been shooting RAW since I got a camera capable of it. Until recently, though, I didn't realize what sort of versatility it offered me. I took this photo almost four years ago, and at first glance, it was an overall blah sort of picture.
I was going through one of my hard drives, just kind of exploring, when I came across this image. Once I opened it in Lightroom, I began to see possibilities. With just a few adjustments, I ended up with a very usable image.
Don't delete your photos, and give them another look from time to time. You might be surprised at what you have hidden in a RAW file.

Free Borders and Edges
I have made some of my photo borders and edge effects available for download. Look for my Box.com downloads on the sidebar. The instructions for using them can also be downloaded in .pdf format.
I created the sloppy and film borders for use in my wedding albums. Some of the others were made for clients for a specific purpose. If they aren't overused, they can add a nice touch to a print, photo album or even photos on a website.
