before & after: "the swimmer carol"

With winter right around the corner, let's take this post old school; we're talking inspiration from the macdaddy of all carols, but don't worry, we won't give you the dickens if you don't get. it.

We recently complete a project for a design firm, here in lovely Greenville, SC and wanted to share the "ghost of pictures taken", "the ghost of pictures edited", "and ghost of ad completed." Now the anology breaks down here, because the design firm is very friendly and great to work with, I just wanted a reason to use "ghost of" in a sentence. (And now that I have, I can check it off my bucket list and get back to our regular scheduling programming)

As you've probably guessed, there's more to our pictures than meets the eye. I know you realize it's art and "different", but sometimes just seeing the finished product doesn't show you what we started working with. This is the start of a series that will help show a corner of our edge, "the difference", you get when working with getzcreative.

live on purpose: now go get a camera!

Pyramids & Cathedrals
Humankind has accomplished much in the past, with seemingly less than we have now. When you stand at the foot of one of the pyramids, wonder fills the heart as you realize what an amazing feat was accomplished. The same goes for the great cathedrals around the world. We use cranes, tools and methods that fits our "easy" lifestyle, all wrapped nicely in OSHEA regulations for our maximum safety. Now I'm not saying we should go back to days of truly hard labor. But I am challenging you to remember that the world wasn't always as convenient as it is now.

T.L.C. "The Lazy Camera"
It's a great age to live in if you want to take pictures. With more options than fleas on a cow, you can find the perfect camera for you, with just the right size, price, and features you think you need. With so much cool technology at our finger tips, it's important our focus begins to shift toward technique, the "art factor", and quality. What good is this technology if we don't use it to our best efforts; what good is shooting lazily just for shooting sake? I believe we must strive to do our best in whatever we do.

Let's not be lazy in our work and play. Live on purpose. Strive to better yourself daily. As my mentor Jerry Ghionis says, "you don't have to be the best, just better than you were yesterday."
