more bondo = more productivity

Bondo moved in last weekend so the house of ABAB is off and running! We have been busy doing some retouching and getting the ABAB name out there. Signed up for a Behance profile, go check it out it's a pretty sweet networking site if you haven't heard of it yet. Also been touching up some old architecture shots from this summer to add to the collection, some of the examples are here. Stay tuned as always, we are becoming one with productivity.

casa ABAB

Bondo is officially moving in this weekend and we will finally get this collaboration rolling! I've been messing around in Sketchup with our logo, going to use it for some promotional pieces and our business cards. Here is a scene that I dropped our logo into just as a tease! Stay tuned...

ABAB takeover starts now!

Two awesome forces have combined: the photography skills of Alex Bond mixed with the design background of Andy Bly. ABAB is up and running with only the next galaxy as our limit, check out below and the title link for some examples of a recent photo shoot. We plan on tackling any idea and will not be limited to just photography. I'm extremely excited about what is ahead and feel like this is the perfect time to flex our creative muscles. Once Bondo moves out to Kent we will be running the sweetest design studio out of a badass house, if you ever have any idea don't be afraid to send us a message!

House of Rock

Back in July I had the awesome opportunity to visit a modern house built in the Catskills of New York. My Dad's old friend just recently had this house finished and it was probably the most amazing house I have ever been through, every detail was handled by John and it is truly a dream house come to life. It is literally built into the hillside and around an enormous rock about the size of a train car. Everything from the railings to the hot tub was handled with such a modern approach it was very easy to photograph....amongst all my drooling ;)

Dog Days of 2010

Can't believe it's the middle of July already, been pretty busy lately with work, World Cup action, vacation and sweating it out in Akron Ohio. Finally posted some pictures from the beach and the 4th of July...starting to love this Canon Rebel even more and learning everyday. This upcoming weekend I have been extended an awesome invitation from an old high school friend of my Dad's to come check out his summer house which he built around an enormous BOULDER a couple of years ago. I've rented a wide angle lens for the weekend so hopefully I can get some good pics. I will post them when I get back.

BEACH!

A few days before Samm and I are off to meet up with the family in the outerbanks. Couldn't be more excited to have a whole week of beach, ocean, beers, great company, world cup and NO WORK! Supposed to be a really great week down in the Outerbanks and I'm excited about capturing some photos with the new camera, I have a new filter and tricks to try out so keep posted for the results... For now enjoy some of the sketches that I did last year while sitting around in Corolla.

I can taste Summer...

Spring is quickly winding down, the weather is getting nicer, windows are kept open all night and I've procrastinated almost all work until the last two weeks of this semester....this can mean only one thing: Summer is almost here! Things are going great and I'm extremely excited for the summer even though I can not make it to Italy with Dr. Medicus. Two weekends ago I adopted an ADORABLE labrador/shepherd puppy from a local rescue shelter and she is great...attached is a photo of her and some random flower pictures to coincide with the great weather. Follow the title link to the flickr photostream as always to see more. Cheers!
