Music, Photography, Compositions, and Video Blog by Rob Rice
If you don’t know this by now, I’m a climber. I love to climb. I love climbers. I love climbing with climbers. I especially love it at this gem of a place in Arkansas. It’s a 5 hour drive from Kansas City, but well worth the weekend visit. Especially if you pick up sparklers on…
To start things off, I thought I’d do a BTS (behind the scenes) of the Project 52 Promo Photo. This image was pretty simple to create, though it required creating a blue background from scratch because, unfortunately, I don’t have an awesome blue wall like that where I live. I did, however, have a…
I have officially decided to start my very own Project 52. For those of you who don’t know what that is, it basically means that I plan to shoot, edit, and post one self-portrait every week for one year (52 weeks in a year, get it?) with the intention to improve my skills and…
There’s nothing like a good pool party with new friends! I decided to bring my camera gear and setup lights for some diving board shots, and I’m really happy with how they turned out. I got tons of greats photos, but these ones were some of my favorites. For some of these shots, I played…
I had the privilege of recording and mixing my good friend Allen Arias of Hide in the Shallows, and we recorded a total of 10 songs for his first full-length release. He also hired me to create the album artwork, which I had a lot of fun shooting, compositing, and editing in photoshop! If I…
I just had one of the most fantastic nights of live music in my life. Civilian put together an amazing show to celebrate the release of their new album ‘Should This Noose Unloosen‘, including an amazing set by my good friend Kyle Cox. The venue has some pretty nasty LED lights, so I did my…
It’s Easter, why wouldn’t I photoshop me and my grandma’s face on a couple of eggs!? I know I haven’t posted in a long time, I’ve been really busy (mostly with work)… but I do have plans to take photography on full-time this coming summer, as well as put a lot of time towards…
There’s nothing quite like slacklining with a good friend on a nice day in the Spring. That friend was Mr. David Tindle, and I can’t wait for our next slacklining session. I thought I’d bring out a few lights and see what I could make of our backyard session (I always like watching the sunset…
I’ve been toying around with the idea of getting into Architectural Photography, so I decided to photograph one of my favorite buildings here – the new(ish) Kauffman Center for Performing Arts in Downtown Kansas City. It really is a beautiful structure, and though I couldn’t get all the way into the actual performance hall (there…
I’m writing this from 40,000 feet above the earth, just barely grazing over a floor of clouds, and I’m feeling good. I didn’t really know what to expect from spending what little amount of money I had left in my savings on a crazy 10-day photography road trip through the Coffee Region of Colombia…
