Well it’s been a while hasn’t it.  It seems like I haven’t posted anything in forever.  I really just haven’t been in the mood to do any writing lately.  Nothing I really wanted to write about.  I’m still kicking booty on my engagement shoots, and have a few random gigs coming up here and there.  Honestly though I just love taking pictures of people.  After working on this last Engagement session I realized how much I really love taking pictures of people.  It just makes me smile.

So I got a new lens.  I promised myself that next time the 24-70 came up for sale on BH’s website that I would grab one.  And I finally pulled the trigger this week.  I so often shoot with portrait length lenses that it’s weird for me to work at the 24mm range.  It sure does take some getting used

First off if you’re looking for a commercial photographer in Hudson Valley, or a Hudson Valley commercial photographer, please contact me.  Or take a look at my different portfolios back on my main website.

I’m going to start doing a bit more SEO work for commercial photography in Hudson Valley, and I need to get some content that speaks to that fact.  In reality I think this shot has great potential for stock agencies. Looking for cool stock commercial photography.

I recently booked a job to

First off if you’re looking for an wedding photographer take a look at my [Hudson Valley wedding photography](http://www.davebrownphotography.com/Hudson Valley-Wedding-Photographer.aspx “Wedding Photography Hudson Valley”) portfolio.

I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything.  I’ve felt really busy lately, but I think it’s just all in my head.  That and my throat hurt a bit so that kept me from doing the things that I really wanted to.  Like work on Jan and Andrews wedding photographs.  I have been desperately craving working on something creative.  But before I can have fun with the creative stuff I have to sort through all their images, and get ratings and stuff

I’m not sure why I’ve been digging taking pictures of old bikes so much recently.  I have a ton of shots of these old classics just waiting to be processed.  I think it’s because I recently got a cruiser of my own, and just love going riding around Hudson Valley.  I bought one for my girlfriend too so that we could both go out on our cruisers and have a blast riding around town and having drinks at whatever random place we find.  This one has a springer front just like mine.  That means that there is a spring on the front of the bike that acts like a old version of shocks.  They actually work pretty well too.  It softens the ride quite a bit.  Again this is more of the fine art photography that I have been really enjoying

I have no idea why I’ve been digging on these more abstract shots lately, but man they really seem to be keeping me entertained.  I’m not sure if it’s been my salty mood.  Or a certain throwback nature to my photography.  All the sudden though I’m drawn to these dark and moody photographs that have more character and less content.  This shot for instance has almost zero subject.  Power Lines? Honestly not the greatest subject Dave.  But for some reason here I am posting this on my blog.

Pushing the boundaries of your photography can never be a bad thing.  I’m always trying new stuff, looking in new directions, walking over the same locations looking for a new angle or a shot that I missed 3 months ago.  In that same vein, I decided to start trying to look for more reflect

So I wanted to kinda show off a series I did of some shots I got while I was in Santa Fe over the 4th of July.  I haven’t had much time to work on any of my personal projects lately so I’m really glad I got the time to work on these.  I’ve just been so busy working on those shots from my engagement session with David and Erin, that I really haven’t had much time to work on anything else.

Oh and I guess I’ve been busy redesigning my whole website around my blog theme.  Be looking for that soon, because I should be done with the redesign here in the next couple of days.  As everyone knows I’m simply not a writer, having a blog is proof of that enough.  I don’t do grammar, and I can’t spell.  Really I just do photography, and I love that
