The Shutter Group

“I’ve recorded a few songs in my day… Many went on to become huge hits. With your permission, I’d like to sing a few of them for you.” The words of a living legend, Tony Bennett. I finally got the opportunity to shoot the timeless Tony Bennett at the Verizon Wireless Ampitheater on May 31, […]

One of the COOLEST things I get to do is shoot concerts.  I’ve always loved music and gettig to shoot bands or acts that I grew up listening to is an awesome experience. I recently had the opportunity to shoot the “Motor City Madman” himself, Ted Nugent, along with STYX and REO Speedwagon.  I was 14 the last […]

What an awesome day of shooting! A few weeks ago, I was asked by my good friend, Jim Thomas of OnsiteShine (follow of Facebook), to do a photo shoot for a local magazine. The subject is Atlanta Krav Maga & Fitness. As soon as he asked, I immediately started daydreaming. I knew exactly what I wanted […]

What a night to remember… It was the summer of 1984. I had an Emerson boom box with a b&w tv. I thought It was cool… There was only one tape any self respecting 11 year old would bring to the pool… That was “1984” by Van Halen. Jump and Panama ruled the radio airwaves. […]

Give this pic a title… Let’s have some fun. I wanna try something new. I’ll post pics from time to time and let you guys give them a caption. This is a picture of Larry Shipp @ShippForce1 with the @GeorgiaForceAFL He made an incredible catch over the Cleveland Gladiators Joe Phinisee. This pic was used […]

I decided to play around a little bit with one of the Georgia Force photos that I took of Larry Shipp catching a bomb from RJ Archer to pretty much close out the game. It was a great play and I am so glad that captured that moment. So, here is the original image that […]

UFC 145 came to Atlanta last week and I had a chance to shoot the fights! Good thing I brought my new 300mm 2.8 lens and 2x teleconverter. They put me and a few other fellas at the top of the 100 section. It still was an awesome experience and I met some great photographers […]

I know it’s hard to believe, but not ALL my shots are perfect! With that said… I’m going to start a new series called Ooooops… The number of “O’s” may vary.   We’ll start off with this little gem.             CJ scored a TD… and this is the celebration shot […]

Like most folks my age… You were either introduced to Alice Cooper via the famous chicken incident: embedded by Embedded VideoYouTube Alice Cooper Band in 1969 in Toronto If you don’t want to watch the entire video: A chicken was thrown on stage. Alice, thinking chickens can fly threw the chicken back in the crowd […]

For those of you that “know” me… you probably remember a time when every thread of clothing I owned was red and black and had a “Super G” sewn or ironed on. My son thinks for favorite (color) is “red & black.” Well… getting married and taking on life has changed that a bit. These days […]

October 8 Italian Car Day 10a – 3p Downtown Historic Norcross This is a show you won’t want to miss – exotic cars that you just don’t get to see every day! Lamborghini’s, Ferrari’s, Maserati’s and more – a full line up of hot Italian engineering will be on display downtown. Over 115 cars currently […]

So, this past weekend was supposed to be the AdvoCare 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. However, it rained for most of the evening on Sunday and the race was postponed until Tuesday (9-6). The rain didn’t come down until around 6:45, which allowed NASCAR to go through all the pre-race events including the Lynyrd Skynyrd […]

HEY FOLKS…. Yesterday, Aug 20th, was the annual UGA Picture Day in Athens, GA. This is an opportunity for the parents and other family members to come over to the practice facility and meet the all the players and their families. Oh yeah… We also take individual photos of the players as well as group […]

Okay… There’s one car at every show that I see that starts me thinking that I’ve seen it before and this car has done it twice. Here is a pic of the car from the Lane Museum. It’s a white Fiat 500 that, I believe, was the first 500 delivered in the UK: Hence the […]

Here are few of my favorite shots from the past weekend in Nashville. I wish I could have taken more artistic shots, but the portraits in front of the Parthenon and shooting candid shots at dinners took up most of my time. Anyways… I saw this in my head as soon as I walked up […]

I usually shoot a handful of auto shows every year with the FLU.org “2011 Fiat FreakOut” show being one of them. These guys are really passionate about Fiats and Italian cars in general. They asked me to shoot their member’s cars in from on the Parthenon at Centennial Park in Nashville, TN. I shot the […]

This past Saturday was the last home game for the Georgia Force. The Force fell to the Chicago Rush 51-41 in front of a sold out arena. It was the first sell-out all year. I sure wish they would have played like they have all year at home for this crowd. A few early turnovers […]

I’ve been shooting the Georgia Force for most of this season and I’ve had a blast.  It’s one of the hardest games I’ve ever shot. The action is fast like hockey, the ball is constantly moving like basketball and you are pretty much relegated to 2 to 4 spots in the arena, just because there […]
