Does a Good Computer Help in the World of Photography and Video?

For a while now I have been into computers and building them properly to handle the work I planned on doing for the next few years. About two years ago, I started to notice that the work I was doing and the cameras I was shooting on was something my computer struggled to keep up with.

Tiny Drone Collaboration With Droneworks and Casey Neistat

Building an obsession with tiny drones over the past few months, it makes me so happy to see other people getting creative and modifying them to fly "better" cameras. Droneworks went to New York to put together another video with Casey Neistat, only this time with a much smaller drone than they had been using in the past.

Mounting a 70-200mm Lens on the Ronin S

I've always wondered what it would be like to mount a longer lens like an 85-200mm on to a gimbal and get footage with it. I feel like a lot of video we see shot on a gimbal is from a wide angle lens, but in this video we see something a little more interesting.

A Few Reasons to Fly FPV or Tiny Drones

When i think drones, I think of an amazing tool used for photography. However, there are many other uses for drones and FPV is one of them that has slowly been benefiting me when it comes to practicing my flying.

A few years back I had heard about the Sigma Art lenses from my buddy Tom Harmon and when he started speaking really highly of the lens he had just got, I began to have some faith in them.

FPV Drone for a Kohl's Ad: Flying From a Whole New Perspective

After sharing my last article about creating space with the Mavic Air, I felt like it would only be right to share some work that has influenced me to begin flying in such a new way. Though this drone is no FPV drone, it is still a lot of fun to fly.

Creating Space With the Mavic Air: Having More Fun on the Job

A couple weeks ago, I noticed a problem with the camera on my Mavic Pro. It seemed to have a few spots that were blurred and because of that I couldn't use it for work. This was my excuse to buy myself a new drone that I could have some fun with.

We all know how annoying it is to put in a request for that waiver to fly in a specific airspace. The process can take a few days all the way up to a month with the number of requests the FAA receives. LAANC is here to help and here's why.

I was never really into photo series but over the summer that kind of changed with my island series. Today, I find myself shooting similar things over and over again. In the end, I think that photo series can be a really cool way to showcase your work and interests over time.
