This was my first attempt at what I'm calling a "Legacy Package."  I wanted to provide the family with something special for the man the family looked up to in life.  This brought on a little added pressure in my opinion because I wanted to exceed expectations.  Read on to learn how I approached this special project and how it came together.

I thought I'd take a few minutes to explain how I took my most recent shot.  First of all, this was a special photo for me because it is my grandpa's old fishing gear.  He passed away many years ago and I really miss him.  He was one of those guys who was the "real deal."  He said what he meant and he meant what he said.  He was the spiritual leader of the house and the entire family looked up to him for it.  I took this shot yesterday so I could post it today for Father's Day.  

I joined the Arkansas Outdoor Photography Club (AOPC) late last year and have really enjoyed the fellowship with other photographers.  They are in Little Rock which is a bit of a drive for me so I was thrilled when they put Hot Springs on the calendar of places to shoot!  We got together June 8th and had a great time!  I've shot downtown Hot Springs a few times already so I decided to go for some of the more unusual angles, locations, and processing styles to vary things up.

In a world that seems chaotic and ever-changing, it is sometimes refreshing to see things that are constant. I had the joy of shooting an old chair shop recently. Little did I know that Mr. Bump was a local legend! This shop, as you can see in the photo above, has been around since 1870; and it looks like things haven't changed too much over the years.
