SPLASH REPORT

Posted in around_SoFlo, Gear, movie, photo business on May 23rd, 2012 by Scott

I recently had the opportunity to shoot the newest boat to leave the shed at Weaver Boatworks – 80′ Islamar.  This boat was going to be stopping in Palm Beach for a few days during it’s delivery to Puerto Rico for it’s new owner.  I caught up with it one day in the boat yard for some interior work.  And then the next morning offshore while Jim Weaver and the new owners took her out for a Marlin Magazine boat review.  What an amazing boat.  Weaver has again raised the bar for state of the art custom boatbuilding with this hull.  Here is a boat review piece I put together.  Thanks to Andy at Ocean Helicopters for the ride.

SURPRISE, CLICK!

What do you get the guy who has everything? Well if you have a real good friend who thinks outside of the box, it’s easy. A client recently hired me to sneak up on his best friend and take his picture. Cool idea, makes a great gift. All the more special when your plan is to catch this guy by surprise with a group of his best friends out having fun. It took a few people on the inside to pull it off smoothly, but in the end this plan came together. The idea was to catch him when he least expects it… something like several miles offshore using a Robinson 44 as a tripod. Surprise! Thanks to Florida Coast to Coast Helicopters for the smooth ride.

FLL AIR SHOW

Posted in around_SoFlo on May 2nd, 2012 by Scott

The show has come and gone, so has the rain.  Unlucky timing for all involved as a tropical blob sat on top of the show weekend forcing one of two days to be canceled.  I went down to the beach for practice day and had a nice window of weather.  Click the image below to see some highlights:
