I am a professional technology executive, graphic/web designer, and photographer. I live just outside Philadelphia and work in Philadelphia's Center City.
I have been a serious photographer for 10 years. For me, photography is my way of slowing down and observing the world around me. My "commute-work-eat-work-commute-eat-sleep-then-repeat" daily life needs diversions... My photography & digital design is a great departure from the everyday pandemonium I choose to experience.

When completing my Masters Degree in Media & Instructional Technology, I was introduced to the world of Photoshop. Since then I have found the marriage of the creative with the technical to be very enticing. I embrace the digital edge Photoshop and other technologies bring to the table. I consider my photography tool belt more equipped... Enabling me to stretch my inventiveness by becoming my own image processor and custom printer. I have been an active member of NAPP (National Association of Photoshop Professionals) since 2007.
Many folks have their own definition of photography. To me it is the combination of light, good timing, technical know-how, and some luck. But more importantly my philosophy of photography is about vision with imagination & determination at its core.
I attempt to post a few photographs and/or designs weekly to my blog... On occasion I will update site templates and images to keep things looking fresh.

I shoot a Canon EOS 5D Mk II full frame d-SLR and the Canon EOS 50D as back-up. I also carry the FujiFilm FinePix x100 as my rangefinder point-n-shoot alternative.
I use the following lens: Canon 70-200m f/2.8L, Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L, Canon 100-400mm f/4L, Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L.
I shoot strictly in camera RAW and use Photoshop CS5 for all post processing work while Dreamweaver CS4 is used to build this site and the other slemak.com affiliated sites. I also use Lightroom and Photomatix on occasion.
My makeshift 18' x 11' basement studio consists of two
Britek HS-200 440w/s strobes, two 32" x 32" soft boxes and a few 10' x 24' muslin backdrops.
For on location shoots I bring my battery powered Elinchrom Ranger Quadra dual flash heads with 15" soft boxes. |
