Above Casa De Campo

in ,

I’ve been coming to the Dominican Republic for a while now. Actually, years to be honest. My family and I took a vacation to the DR back in 2004 and haven’t looked back. We’ve been all over the country but usually stay in La Romana. It’s peaceful, quiet, and safe. So many times I’ve brought my DSLR and documented our stay. This time I brought my drone and decided to document a very different view of my stay.

The images below have been taken from a DJI Mavic Pro 2 Drone. It’s small enough to fold and store in your traveling bags / cases. This was the first time I traveled abroad with a drone. No issues at all through customs. When I arrived, I wasn’t sure it would work at all considering you have to use your phone to fly the machine.

It was the first thing I cracked out of my bag and began shooting. It’s always exciting to see an area above at a birds eye view of an area you’ve been coming to for years.

Enjoy!

Matt & Terra's Xmas Baby Shoot

in ,

Hello 2019!

I’m just getting back into the groove of blogging. I’ll start this year off with last months xmas baby shoot. I photographed Natalia shortly after she was born at my home studio earlier last year and had a pleasure documenting her at such a special time during the holidays. As someone who doesn’t have any kids at the moment, it’s really special to get a backseat into some peoples lives as they being their next chapters in life as parents. On a special note, this was my first shoot using the new mirrorless Nikon S7. I’m loving the results so far. Vibrant colors and unique sharpness. I hope to share more photos from the new camera in the near future. Enjoy!
