Volunteer with the Community

I have only a couple organizations I volunteer with anymore.  I use to volunteer left and right with my photography.  I learned two things-one, I could find a way to get burnt out quite easily; two-not everyone appreciates your time and efforts.  I don't say this to discourage anyone from volunteering, in fact, I encourage it!  Volunteering your time is the most rewarding thing I feel fortunate enough to do.  There are days, or weeks where it feels overwhelming when I have that "one extra thing" to do.  However, I have always walked away feeling better about myself when I give a little of my time to someone else.  Especially organizations which can make such a difference in other peoples lives.  One of those organizations is the Music City Youth Orchestra in Nashville, TN.  An incredibly talented group of high school students who will blow your socks off when you pay the modest ticket to attend their performance.  Check out their website for their next performance date and time: www.musiccityyo.org
I began my involvement with Music City Youth Orchestra over a year and a half ago.  I serve on their Advisory Board, and I take photos at their concert which I give to them for their use.  I put together a video of the video and photos I took the other night.  Hope you enjoy it!

We offer Photography Workshops and Photo Tours

As an avid photographer I have traveled all over this state and around the US finding those great places to take photos.
I have started a video series which shares with you some of those locations.  I hope you will enjoy this short video of a location I have visited many times; Radnor Lake State Natural Area, Nashville, TN.

Click here to watch a video on what you can find at Radnor Lake State Natural Area.
Photo Tour video by Dangerous Curves Photography

While I was active with the Nashville Photography club as their Hiking & Adventure Group Leader it was my duty to seek, find and take club members to great places to take photos.  Even though I am not as active with the photo clubs as I once was, I still get asked quite a bit "where can I go to take nature/landscape/street photos?"  Hopefully this video series I am developing will help curious photographers answer that question.
Want to know more?  Want to attend a photo tour or workshop?  Contact me at: info@curvesphoto.com and I will be glad to help you get signed up for our next event.

 




Until next time...keep shooting!

Preparing for your family Holiday cards

Most people enjoy receiving the best holiday photo cards from their relatives and friends. Often they are found displayed in peoples homes well beyond the holiday season.  With the holiday season is coming near, we are preparing our own version of holiday cards that will be sent to friends and relatives.
It is never too early to prepare. It is better for us to make personalized holiday cards and by booking early you can save money. It may take a little effort, but this will be the best way to preserve your holiday family memories for your loved ones during the holidays.


Sometimes, it is more heartfelt if the cards being sent out are of your family or something significant from the past year.  Many are using photo holiday cards to tell their holiday messages to their friends and relatives. It does not require a lot of hard work. Personalizing photo cards are considered to be one of the best things that can be received by friends that lived miles away from you. It is something that makes your relatives cheers up seeing that you and your family seem to be in their most perfect condition.
The best holiday photo cards are easily produced when they produced by a professional. A family photo, your kids' photos, or even your pet's picture would do as long as the theme pertains to the highlighted holiday. Holiday is not just about celebrations. It is also about spreading your love and greetings to people that you love but are far from you and your family. Make the best holiday photo cards as early as today by booking with Dangerous Curves Photography and send them with you and your family's sweetest holiday greetings!

Return of the Flash Party

It was a late night on facebook when I saw a notice about a flash party this past Sunday.  I didn't know if I would be able to go as I did not have access to all my gear.
After digging I found a monopod and gathered up my flash-disappointed I didn't have a soft box, but wanting to give it a go.
I am hoping this is a start to getting back into the groove.
