5 wedding photographers, Death Valley, nature photography and me

February 25th, 2008 · 12 Comments · Wedding and Portrait Photographers Santa Barbara

Yeah, 5 wedding photographers, only one who professed to have any talent at capturing nature, and that one was not me.

I consider myself to be a pretty bad nature photographer. My strength is definitely people and wedding photography.

But, just to prove that I was in Death Valley last week taking pictures with my buddies Colin Michael, Jason Groupp, TJ Cameron and John Griffin, here are some photos from the trip:

I could NEVER been a cop. I just couldn’t ticket people for speeding. How can you pull over one person, when the person in front of them was going the same speed. And then, how as a cop would you like to spend your day sitting with two other cops on the side of the road in one spot waving people down…. what a boring day for them. (and good thing for me I’m a PRO at fighting tickets)

I drive to fast. I got a ticket. But, it was a speed trap.

    Looks like the 138, about 4-5 miles east of the 5. I’d say you were doing 82mph.

    3 of em? Looks like they needed to make up some revenue for all that snow plowing and escorting they had to do with the 5 getting all that snow this year…

    Yeah - I remember that sort of thing in Maryland on the 695. That’s the nice thing about radar detectors!

    So did you get a ticket?

    where did you stay and where did you get the ticket? Go dirt road the next time the only thing that happens there when you go to fast is a wreck, hahahaha…
