Horizon Aerial Photography open on the Delmarva Peninsula

Casey Kenton, Horizon Aerial Photography principal, has been specializing in aerial photography for the last decade because of his work experience in the commercial real estate industry. In addition to operating Horizon Aerial Photography, Kenton is a commercial real estate broker with Sperry Van Ness – Miller Commercial based in Lewes.

Like so many photographers, what started as a hobby eventually morphed into a business venture. “My goal is to specialize in capturing the most detailed and illustrious aerial photos and imaging, and delivering the images to the client in a timely manner,” said Kenton. Kenton holds a certified private pilot’s license and calls Sussex County Airport home base. Kenton’s camera of choice is a DSLR Nikon D5000.
Horizon Aerial Photography recently opened for business on the Delmarva Peninsula. The new company specializes in capturing high-resolution aerial images of real estate holdings, business locations, residences, lighthouses, golf courses, schools, job sites or any other physical objects located on the peninsula.

WOW!  Don't know if I could adjust my equilibrium to shoot aerial....I think it would be cool but for real I don't think my body could handle it.

Modulated light...

This was interesting to say the least.....I had fun with it but I didn't have time to do some layers that I wanted.  I plan to play tmrw since I'm home with a child that has strep.  I want your opinions on ALL that I posted tonight Vaughn when I get back Thursday!


Glass

Really didn't like glass.  It's hard & something I will have to work more on....

Paper

Loved this the most out of the assignments I am posting tonight.  Something about lighting on texture gets me giddy...haha.

Eggs

WOW is all I can say...I did nothing but shoot & take care of sick kiddos this weekend and I'm pooped.  Loved every minute of still life though....big change for me since my business is "people" and I enjoyed it alot more than I thought I would.
