Off to Atlanta
Heading out to Atlanta this morning to shoot the new Gwinnett Brave’s stadium. Should be a great holiday weekend shoot. They’ve got fireworks the night of the 4th and 5th so between those and a full crowd it should make for a nice view of America’s favorite pastime. Heading to Bachelor Gulch Colorado immediatly after […]
Loews Lake Las Vegas: Living right
As Sam Elliott said in the Big Lebowski, Sometimes you eat the bar, and sometimes, well, he eats you. Well this morning was one of those moments when something like a cloudy sunrise just opens right up and drops this in your lap. And for that I take back all of the nasty things I […]
Loews Lake Las Vegas: 18 hours later…
and the day is finally coming to an end. Had a great day of shooting and have lots to share. I’ve got to get some sleep now as I’ve got another 4am shoot that will run all the way up until my late morning flight. Hopefully I can post more from the airport. Until then, […]
Loews Lake Las Vegas: A place of contrasts
Getting settled at the Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort for my shoot this week. I’ve got a great top floor room overlooking the lake. One thing you notice in a places like Vegas, Phoenix, or any other desert destination is the disparity between the natural surroundings and those that have been created by man, or […]
Off to Las Vegas
Off to Las Vegas this week to shoot the Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort. Should be nice to get a little dry heat now that Dallas has officially woken up and realized it’s summer and started to treat us with some nice humid heat. Looking to be about 104 in Vegas this week. Enjoy the […]
Updates: Where are they?
Sorry gang, I’ve been a bit slow on the updates, it’s a combo of in-town shoots, personal time, and bit of blog neglect. Good news is those of you following me on twitter get a little taste here and there in between blog post. Take a peek at my account at twitter.com/blakemarvin. There are lots […]
Virgin Islands: update
I’ve come to the conclusion that once you embrace the heat and humidity and the fact that every inch of your body is covered in sweat it’s actually quite liberating. Waiting at the Gallow’s Bay port for my ferry to depart for St Thomas.
Off to the Virgin Islands
Heading out this morning for two shoots in the Virgin Islands. The first couple of days will be a Cardiac Hospital on the island of St. Croix then followed by ferry ride over to St. Thomas for a mixed use project in St Thomas. Keep my fingers crossed with some pending storms scheduled for the […]
Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh: Preview
Been plugging away at the office all this week knocking out some much needed post production on a few projects. One of those projects is my Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh photo shoot from a few weeks ago. Thought I’d share some finished images. Enjoy
Off to Atlanta
After a much needed day home it’s back on the road to Atlanta for the weekend to shoot some healthcare projects. FYI, swine flu has nothing on me!
Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh: Here comes the sun
Well Egypt, you had me wake up at 4am for the last 5 days and greeted me with cloudy mornings followed by cloudy days, but not today. As my parting gift you gave me a morning full of abundant sun. And for that I thank you. It’s been a great week here in Egypt even […]
Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh: Dear Mosquitoes,
What have my poor bird legs ever done to you? Why oh why must you ravage my legs and feet when my arms are far meatier. Or you could just stop, that would be nice as well. Sincerely, The Photographer you Love to Bite
Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh: The Red Sea is…
not so red to be honest. The Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh sits on the Sinai Pensula which gives it stunning blue waters with great coral reefs (something I had no idea of). Today’s shoot went great. Created some really nice images and met some very interesting people. Tomorrow should be another amazing day of […]
Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh: Update
Quick post before heading off to meet with the resort engineers to coordinate the fountains and lights for tomorrow’s 4am shoots. Enjoy
Off to Egypt
At the airport about to head to Egypt to shoot the Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh. Should be an amazing shoot. Will be there a week (minus the 36 hours each way it takes to get there). Will try to post during the shoot.
St Regis Punta Mita: The Gallery
One of the hardest parts of traveling constantly is the lack of time you have to sit at a proper workstation and do good post production work. I love my MacBook Pro but there is no substitute for a giant monitor that is properly calibrated, a big ol Mac Pro, and a Wacom tablet. Well […]
VLA (Very Large Array): Preview
While heading out to White Sands last weekend we made a stop at the VLA in New Mexico. If you thought White Sands was amazing/strange looking, then wait till you see the VLA. The short history of the VLA is that back in the 70’s/80’s they built an array of 27 radio antenna’s setup in […]
White Sands: Preview
Thought I would share some shots from white sands. Some candid some proper shots. Been a really busy week so I haven’t had a chance to do as much work on them as I would like. The candid shot from the earlier post is from my lovely wife (seen in this post from an infamous […]
White Sands
Took a much needed vacation this weekend after spending all of march on the road. I spent the weekend shooting (funny how vacations include shooting) in White Sands, New Mexico. Truly a spectacular place, 275 square miles of pure white gypsum sand dunes. Heading back to Albuquerque to catch a flight. will post shots from […]
Off to Phoenix
Heading out to Phoenix this morning to shoot the new spring training facilities for the LA Dodgers and the Chicago White Sox. Going to shoot one of the last spring training games today followed by two days of exterior architecture.
Lucas Oil Stadium March Madness
Just landed in Indy to shoot tonight’s games at the new Lucas Oil Stadium. Will post more about the shoot when I get settled. In the meantime, here are some iphone shots of the new airport in Indy, it’s really nice, especially if you have ever spent any time in the old airport.
