Spring Sunset in Downtown Milwaukee

During one of our first spring-like April days in Milwaukee, I ventured to the lakefront for a few minutes during sunset. Took some stills with my 5dmk3 and processed them in Lightroom.

Downtown Milwaukee. Plus excellent use of foreground. Also, clouds.

Not sure what this plant is. But it’s backlit.

Not sure the official term on the “leaves” here, so I called them “Whisps.”

Downtown Milwaukee. Plus trees that haven’t decided it’s spring yet.

Horse Fence Photo Montage

Check out a photo montage I put together of beautiful Buckley Fence, LLC horse fence photos. Music is “All in You” performed by Cadence Burns, an amazing artist I discovered while searching for the right music. About 60% of the photography was done by me, the rest is from installers, customers, and others.

Recent Work! Photos, videos, and more!

My Dad, Jim Buckley, is an inventor/entrepreneur and needed new headshots for his work. These were taken outside of his office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

One of the companies my Dad runs is Buckley Fence, LLC. Below are shots I took for the company during a new installation in Burlington, Wisconsin. Love the fall colors. View all the pictures in the gallery.

Don’t worry, I didn’t come within 3-yards of this shovel:

I’ve also recently shot interviews at Milwaukee Career College. This was the second time I’ve shot there with ParadigMedia. To see some of the interviews from the first shoot, please click here (I was director of photography and recorded the audio, ParadigMedia produced and edited the videos).

Here is a new vertical print ad for my work:

OpenX Photo Shoot

I recently did a photo shoot for Forbes #7 upcoming corporation, OpenX, who handle online advertising. Journal Communications (which includes the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) uses OpenX software. OpenX wanted a candid shoot of the Journal Communications employees in action.

Below are some of my favorites from the shoot, and you can see 16 of my favorites in the Flickr Gallery.
Entrance to the Journal Communications building:

3 Journal workers, who were all easy-going and had a great sense of humor, pretend to work, while Amy from OpenX’s Pasadena location is in the foreground:
Exciting Discussion
I think this image can apply to a lot of different situations. But he’s just setting a projector:

Journal employee in their lobby, that they in actuality like never go to, as it’s really just for guests. The window-light really brought out her beautiful sky-blue eyes:
CU Woman Listening in Lobby
Pretty cool looking lobby. These guys are also pretty funny:
Wide Discussion in Lobby
They think just ’cause they’re walking away from me that I’ll stop taking photos. I’ll show them!:

Happy Discussion in Lobby
If you weren’t sure where we were, this photo is for you 🙂 :

“Thrash or Die” Concept Stills with Nick Sommer

Our goal was to shoot during blue hour/moon set of the Super Full Perigee Moon to try to get a real-life version of a 90’s large/low comic-book-style moon. But because half the sky was filled with clouds, the moon was blocked. So I shot at the sunset, which brought out even more beautiful and vibrant colors than other sunsets.

The shoot was for some concept stills of a project skater/actor/filmmaker Nick Sommer and I are looking at doing possibly.
