The Photography pages have undergone some changes
and are now up and running with a newly designed
layout in place. More pictures have been added and
reorganized into more specific categories. There are
still some minor errors in the layout, i.e. images not
centering properly. These problems will be addressed in
the upcoming days. Thank you and enjoy browsing through
our newest material.
UPDATE 1.1

A few more modifications have been made, including
more graphics that add a new creative look to the
sides of the main banner. The Automotive,
Cityscape, and Landscape galleries have been posted,
finally providing an archive of images for our
viewers. These galleries will be further augmented
with more photography as the days go by. The main
page, as you can see has been customized with a new
scroll frame for updates. The Design page will be
uploaded sometime this week with several images,
serving as an artistic approach to various
photographic styles.

Kevin David, owner of Fire for Effect Photography Design, has been working with photography and graphic design since 2005
when he was first ultimately inspired by the nightscapes of Tokyo and other major cities. Born in Lakenheath, Woodbridge, UK, Kevin moved
to the United States some time later and is now majoring in Communication Arts at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond.
Kevin currently shoots with a Nikon D50 along with his 55mm, 18-50mm, 55-200mm, 18-135mm, and 70-300mm lenses. His favorite style of photography
is cityscape, especially at night and landscapes.
Not only does Kevin specialize in photography, but most of the graphic design work at
ffephotography.com is contributed to him. As owner, he expects Fire for Effect will drastically expand into a much larger community of graphic artists
and photographers in the near future.
Matthew Ryson, member since Summer 2007, works for FFE as a photographer and web designer. He has been working with web design and web development since 2002
when he was first introduced to graphic design and needed a website to display his artwork. Eventually, Matthew was intruiged by the capabilities
of expression through photography. He believes photography is a very important form of expression that falls somewhere in between fine arts and applied arts
and that one must learn photography in order to fully appreciate it.
Matthew's favorite styles of photography are macro/close-ups, urban/cityscapes,
architectural, and conceptual. He presently shoots with a Pentax K100D camera along with 18-55mm and 50-200mm lenses.
Matthew
is currently working on getting his BFA degree from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia.
