    Carolina-Railhawks-Practice-3684.jpg

    A few weeks ago, on a beautiful Monday morning, I took some photos at the first practice of the season for the Carolina Railhawks. The Carolina RailHawks FC is an American professional soccer team, and a member of the USL First Division, the second tier of the American Soccer Pyramid. Starting from this upcoming season, I will be taking photographs for them! This is exciting because I have not had too many opportunities to shoot soccer. I shot some while at “The U” but not as much as basketball and football. Like just about every other kid, I played soccer for a while, so it will bring back some memories! The Railhawks play their first exhibition game Saturday, March 14th.

    Miami at UNC Slideshow

    Feb 23 | Evan | Comments Off on Miami at UNC Slideshow |

    Wow! So much has gone since my last post that I really have not had any time to blog about it! Yes I really have been that busy, but the past 10 days or so were great, including everything from a business trip to Las Vegas to child portrait sessions and birthday parties to getting my own portrait done! More is coming real soon, but until then, check out this video from UM at UNC that shows a new way to show of my photos.

    University of Miami at Duke Men’s Basketball

    Once again, the University of Miami Hurricanes came to the state of North Carolina. Once again, I was asked to photograph the game between Miami and a North Carolina ACC foe. Once again, I was able to photography a great game and once again, Miami lost in overtime! At least I did manage to come away with some decent photographs.

    Missing Japan: Sapporo Snow Festival

    Feb 03 | Evan | Comments Off on Missing Japan: Sapporo Snow Festival |

    Japan has a festival for just about everything you can imagine. To be honest, most of them are over hyped and once you have seen one, you have seen them all. Of course, there are some exceptions. One of which being the Sapporo Snow Festival, which is in Sapporo every February. This was by far my favorite festival in Japan! The main attractions are the huge snow sculptures, some of which are functional, some artistic and some are both. Equally as cool, in the entertainment district Susukino, there are some amazing ice sculptures…the best of which are actually ice bars that open at night and serve hot drinks! Throughout my years of living in Japan, I only went once… now I wish I went every year and can’t wait until I get the chance to go back!

    University of Miami at NCSU Mens Basketball

    Jan 28 | Evan | Comments Off on University of Miami at NCSU Mens Basketball |

    Again I shot for the University of Miami Sports Information Department, and again Miami lost to another North Carolina school. This time it was an overtime loss to the Wolfpack of North Carolina State University. Miami started out the first half without much effort and was down by double digits at halftime. The Hurricanes started out the second half strong and made it a game, mainly because everytime Miami’s Dwayne Collins touched the ball he seemed to be able to dunk it! Really, it was a little ridiculous. Equally as ridiculous was NCSU shooting 54% from the three point line and connecting on 14 threes! At the end of regulation, UM had the last shot, but couldn’t get the shot to fall. In the end, a fade away three pointer with about 3 seconds left in OT, put NCSU up for good giving Miami their second strait overtime loss!

    December 28th, 2008, I was lucky enough to tag along with Brian Mullins Photography for Cindy and Neil’s wedding. It was a beautiful wedding with some really lovely people making it easy to photograph. The service was at Church of the Good Shepard in downtown Raleigh and the reception followed at Prestonwood Country Club in Cary.

    Thank you to Brian Mullins Photography and to Cindy and Neil for letting me be a part of your special day!

    Missing Japan: Shooting people in Osaka | Japan Probe

    Jan 23 | Evan | Comments Off on Missing Japan: Shooting people in Osaka | Japan Probe |

    I am so happy to be back in the USA but, I am not going to lie…  I miss Japan!  Especially when I see video clips like this, it takes me back…  This video is in Japanese but you don’t need to understand Japanese to appreciate it and have a laugh!  I cannot confirm how authentic it is, but while I was teaching, some of my students definitely played around like this and Satomi insists that this really happens!  My favorites are the guy on the bike getting shot and the one guy coming out of the convenient store called, “Lawson” getting hit by the sword!

    University of Miami at UNC Mens Basketball

    Jan 17 | Evan | Comments Off on University of Miami at UNC Mens Basketball |

    Last Saturday, I shot the the basketball game at the Dean Dome for the University of Miami Sports Information Department because Jack McClinton and the Miami Hurricanes came into town to play the UNC Tarheels. Having been out of the country for the past few years, it was the first NCAA game I had shot in a while! It took me a few plays to get the rust off, but I came away with some good shots and had a blast!
