Friday fun…

Since its Friday, I thought I would post a few websites that I have found this week that are worth passing on.

Here are some of my fav:

http://www.playauditorium.com/ – Very very cool “game” which has you directing beams of light into sounds. If you are an audio junkie like myself you will dig this…

http://www.justhearit.com/ – Try it, its awesome. You can find some rare stuff here…

http://de-war.de/eurekacarpark.html – wicked perspectives…

www.neave.com/lab/planetarium/ – pure awesomeness…

Have fun!

The Liquid Kids…

Kansas City Photographer Aaron Lindberg Photography, The Liquid Kids

The Liquid Kids had a great idea for their photo shoot and wamted to use old tapes as playing cards in a poker game. The band brought in about 100 old cassette tapes and even a couple 8 tracks to the shoot that they dug up from a store down in Salina, Kansas. Here is one of my favorite shots from the shoot. Check out their myspace page to hear some of their work and see more photos from the shoot.

New website design – aaronlindberg.com

After spending the past couple of days and nights working on a new website design, its finally here!

Check out www.aaronlindberg.com to see the new look and feel.

Kansas City photographer Aaron Lindberg's, new website design.

It is not a heck of a lot different in terms of the layout from what I had before, but it is a bit darker and features a few new photos that I have shot over the past couple weeks. The thumbnails are a bit smaller that what I previously had them sized and I combined them into one row. I do all of my own website design and maintenance so if anything looks funny let me know so I can be sure to tweak it.

The goal of my designs are to keep the function very, very simple and easy to navigate. The main idea is to show the photos and let them do all of the work. The viewer needs to have a very simple navigation so that they don’t get lost within the website or get to overwhelmed with a lot of photos. It is supposed to be clean and simple. (At least that is what I was trying for!)

Next up will be kcfaces.com….

Year in review…

View Larger Map
I always like to end each year with an interactive Google map of where I have traveled in the past year for photo shoots. It helps me look at where I have been and compare it to where I was the year before.

This map is interactive, you can click on a pin and it should tell you where I was and what month.

Hope everyone is keeping their New Year’s Resolutions!!!

Gold award…

Last week The Kansas City Freelance Exchange held it’s 4th Annual Freebe Awards. I was glad to find out that I won a gold award in the digital photography category for my personal work titled “hands” that I put together earlier this year. Lots of good stuff all around at the awards event!!!

The Drop…

Last month I covered The Drop: Bar and Bistro for Urban Times magazine here in Kansas City. I do not shoot food that often but when I do I really enjoy it. Here I photographed a couple appetizers and entrees as well as a few martinis. The best part about shooting this type of work is that I get to sample all of the delicious food and drink. If you are near Midtown Kansas City, Missouri be sure to stop by and check it out, you wont be disappointed. (Side note: they make edible drinks, I know it sounds crazy but they look like pieces of candy. I didn’t get to try one this time – next time I am in there I will definitely have to try one!)

Piqueonline.com

The latest issue of Piqueonline.com went up today. Here are a few of the shots I took for this issue.

This concept spanned across several different styles of fashion photography. From the beginning we see the “beauty” shot followed by the “commercial” shot than finishing with the “editorial” shot. We had another shoot planned but things just didn’t come together on it and was decided to be left out. Be sure to check out www.piqueonline.com and PIQUE: TATTLE -  for more behind the scenes info.

Piqueonline.com

I am very excited to announce that a high fashion website I have been doing some work for has finally launched. Point your browsers to www.piqueonline.com and take a look at the website. This is a really cool thing for Kansas City, the game plan is to give the Kansas City fashion a centralized location and help unite and boost the fashion community here in town. I shot the story “Boutique Yourself” which is the leading image on the page this week. Keep an eye out for the upcoming weeks for more info and new photos. Be sure to bookmark www.piqueonline.comand keep checking back for the updates.

Check out the Pique Blog for behind the scenes shots and more of whats going on with the project.

Guns N’ Hoses

I shot the Guns N’ Hoses boxing match a couple weeks back for Ink Magazine here in Kansas City. This was a cool fundraiser event for local policemen and firemen. 100% of the proceeds from the event benefit local charities. 75% goes to the Kansas City Crime Commission’s Surviving Spouse and Family Endowment Fund (S.A.F.E.) which provide financial assistance to the spouses and children of local sworn police officers, firefighters and emergency service personnel killed in the line of duty. 25% goes to amateur youth boxing programs in the Greater Kansas City area that combat juvenile delinquency.

Policemen/women and firemen/women duke it out at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kansas on November 15th 2008.
