Crazy Weather with 70 Degrees and Snow in Auburn
This has has been a crazy Saturday weather wise. Started off with tornado and thunderstorm warnings all over the place and turned into a nice sunny and rather warm day at 70*, but tonight, there is snow expected. I think we are well below the actual snow line if there is one but non-the-less, we…

Dinner at Locos Grill in Auburn :: Friday Feet
Today ended up being a very rainy day in Auburn and since Deb and I got back from Catalyst One Day around midnight last night, we didn’t end up going anywhere for Friday Feet this week other than dinner. We went to one of our favorite local places, Loco’s (also a favorite with college students). …

Catalyst Photos at Northpoint Church with Steve Fee Band
Yesterday was about the longest 24 hours I have spent in a long time. It was a last minute photo shoot request for Catalyst One Day in Atlanta and it was non-stop from the moment we left on Wednesday night until we got back home around midnight last night. I am still processing what all…

Catalyst One Day in Atlanta and No Film or CF Card?
I am in Atlanta right now getting ready to shoot the Catalyst One Day event at Northpoint Church and later the Off the Blogs at Buckhead Church. This was one of the most last minute shoots I was ever asked to do, but being that it was Catalyst (and the Off the Blogs) I was…

Guitarist and Real-estate Agent Rob Slocumb :: Photos
Rob Slocumb is perhaps best known for his guitar work with Martha’s Trouble, so when he asked me to do a quick and easy photo shoot for him this week I was thinking music, band, guitars, and all that (see Martha’s Trouble Live at Eighth and Rail in Opelika // Photos), but it was for…

Giving Up Social Networking for Lent on Ash Wednesday
Today is Ash Wednesday on the Christian calendar and popular belief around the Internet seems to mark this as a Catholic observation, but it really has nothing to do with Catholicism other than the fact that many Catholics observe Ash Wednesday and Lent. Ash Wednesday marks the first day of Lent, which is 46 days…

If I Were President, and Now I Am :: Video
Noticed I filed this post under “political” so if you don’t like political stuff, just move on to my next post (and coming up I will post a photo shoot I did yesterday). Until then, I came across this site, If I Were President from 247 Town Hall, a while back during the election and…

Why Jim Morrison and the Bible are Still Consumed
I love the music that comes from the mid to late 1960’s to mid 1970’s in the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Eric Clapton, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd and many more. It was at the very height of the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and a time of great growth and pain in…

Sunday Walkthrough Video at Cornerstone Church
A Day at Cornerstone Church from Scott Fillmer on Vimeo. This has been done a million times but not by me, and not on this Sunday, so today I took my video camera with me from start to finish through a normal Sunday at Cornerstone Church. The video is a little long I know, I…

Time to Shoot the Worship Leader :: Photos
How often do you get a chance to shoot your worship leader, not often enough right? Yesterday I had a chance to do a quick photo shoot with my creative / worship leader here at Cornerstone to do some head shots for his blog and online profiles. It has taken me about 10 years to…

How To Make a Milk Carton Flash Diffuser Video
This past weekend Deb and I went to Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain Georgia to go for a bike ride and do a little photo and video shooting at the Butterfly Day Center (see my Callaway Gardens Butterflies // Friday Feet). Generally when you are shooting butterflies in an enclosed area you will need some…

My Utmost for Politics and Religion Indifference
I will say right off the bat that this post will be totally uninteresting to some and all of my 10 readers may dislike it, but I feel like change is coming to my blog and I am writing this post to map it out for myself. There are a lot of random thoughts here…

A Real Nikon D700 Birthday Cake is Amazing
I was sent this (the info not the cake) from Deb this morning and I just had to do a blog post about it. For any of those spouses of photographers, especially those Nikon freaks, it is time to step up to the plate and buy him or her that cherished Nikon D700 Birthday Cake.…

President's Day and Altocumulus Cloud Observations
Change is coming, all we have to do is look up and observe. You may be asking yourself what does Andrew Jackson, the Blue Angels, and Altocumulus Clouds have in common. Not much, but today, call it an observation. Today being President’s Day, we are observing a day to celebrate the office of U.S. President…
