With the weather getting colder and the days shorter, I thought that it would be nice to post some travel-themed snaps from my recent trip to
I gathered them while exploring with Kenny during our down time:
We begin at sunrise…
...then back to bed for a few more hours of sleep!!!
We decided to leave the comfy confines of our resort atmosphere and head into Downtown Nassau for some urban shooting...
urban sniper shots...
...and an encounter with a hook-handed pirate pedaling rum cakes.
...then back to Paradise Island.this is in and around where they filmed the latest Bond film, Casino Royale, The Executive's Club.
sunset is upon us...it's getting interesting...
How low can you go?? This guy was serious about his limbo...notice the flames??
...interior shots from in and around The Atlantis Resort.
self portrait with 15ft sharks swimming over my head.
...and finally, my picks for favorite pics...
What an amazing experience!!! A super huge, mammoth thank you to Kenny Kim for inviting me to work alongside him on this project. It was both a joy and an honor. I'll be posting images from Jina & Joe's wedding real soon, so check back often.
Well my fellow blog-vember-ites, that concludes this installment. I want to wish you all safe travels and happy times during the Thanksgiving Holiday. There is so much to be thankful for...
All the Best,

OK even though I live in the south and can go to the beach anytime, all I want to do is go on vacation! A real vacation and experience the wonder and color that you captured... I am just as eager as those in the north!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! JZ
With so many amazing shots, I don't know how you picked any favorites. They're all spectacular. Nice job you!
That crystal sculture reminds me of Superman's fortress in North Pole. Great images!
Yo! Blogvember rolls on like you are on a mission! The Destination King strikes again!!
These are sweet! I NEED the last one framed up!!! As always...Flintastic!!
Jenny Z...you let me know when you plan this 'real' vacation. 'We're comin along!!!
thanks e!!! I'm pretty fired up about that last one too. I'll put in a call to the north pole and see what I can arrange with the big guy up there.
Hi Tom! Don't know if you remember me, but i met you briefly at Joe and Jinna's wedding. Stumbled upon your site from Kenny's blog. I really like all the pictures you've posted up here (not just this post, but past ones as well). And look forward to seeing more shots from the bahamas. I was torn between spending time taking pictures or enjoying the moment, and for this particular trip, decided to enjoy time with friends more than take pictures. The right choice i think, but i still wish i got some better pictures while i was there! Keep up the great work and happy thanksgiving.
Holy cow, those are amazing! I have never been to the islands, and I was invited to Aruba today with my second shooter and some of her co-workers. This makes me want to hop on the plane RIGHT NOW!
Tom,
Your urban sniper shots are always up there as my fav's of your work. You capture mood and movement, making moments look so inviting to the senses. When I try to do it, I always feel like people end up looking at me like "why are you taking my picture!"
Keep up the great work buddy!
sophia. the key to urban sniping is wide angle. never shoot from the eye...strangers change when they see a camera up to your face. you have to provide 'misdirection'.
christine...
diggin the onslaught of comments. it's great to hear from you and you know how much i love your wit. oh, and i can't blame you for chosing to be at home reading my blog instead of in the Bahamas...NOT!! Go girl...run like heck!!
