Side by Side Comparison of Four iPhone Photo Apps

Wil Fernandez — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:39:19 +0000

While a mobile phone camera is no comparison to a digital SLR camera, I’ve found that my iPhone is much more suited to the type of photography that I enjoy and allows me to streamline my workflow considerably. Lugging around a bulky removable lens camera is the least of my issues – the main gripe [...]

A Culinary Intervention with Chef Diego Felix

Wil Fernandez — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 23:50:50 +0000

Since my move to Argentina, my food exploration hasn’t skipped a beat. From an amazing tasting flight of Peruvian ceviches at Osaka to my almost daily dose of empanadas, I’m in foodie heaven. Here in Buenos Aires, an interesting trend of these somewhat illusive eating experiences has emerged. They are referred to as puertas cerradas or “closed door” restaurants. Simply [...]

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end

Wil Fernandez — Sat, 17 Dec 2011 16:07:18 +0000

Two years ago I got the bright idea to sell most of my possessions, leave Los Angeles and hit the road in a 31 foot RV with a motorcycle on the back. For the past 20 months, that Winnebago served me well – allowing me to experience small towns and explore seemingly untouched areas throughout [...]

Words of wisdom: DO IT NOW!

I began my extended road trip across the continental United States back in February 2010. Originally it was going to be a 12 month journey, but has since extended into more of a mobile lifestyle with no end in sight. About 2 months into my trip, as I was packing up my RV to leave [...]

Anyone that has met me knows that I always have multiple plates spinning at any given time. Aside from living on the road and exploring the United States for the past two years, I’ve held down a full time role as an interactive marketing strategist with a digital advertising agency. In that time, while juggling [...]

Mentioned in Wine Enthusiast

Pretty cool. I just got word that a campaign that I digitally orchestrated for a Spanish sparking wine brand was featured in the October issue of Wine Enthusiast. Over the summer I worked with the Sawtooth Group and Sentient Interactive to produce a 5 city wine tasting tour out of a food truck. Logistically, the [...]

iPhone Photo Shoot with Valerie Mya

Wil Fernandez — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 19:52:18 +0000

I’ve been experimenting with my iPhone camera and handful of apps over the past few months. It’s really convenient to have a camera in my pocket all the time, but even more convenient to be able to process and upload the photos in real time. Most of the things that I find myself photographing with my iPhone are still…landscapes, [...]

Great Google+ Chrome Extensions and Google+ Tips for Photographers

Wil Fernandez — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 01:28:22 +0000

I recently jumped on the Google+ bandwagon and started posting some of my photos there. With this new social network, I tried something a little different; categorizing my photos by the device that I was using to capture them. So you’ll find many of my images on Google+ categorized as: mobile phone photos manual compact [...]

Trailblazing at 7D Ranch in Wyoming

Wil Fernandez — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 02:10:56 +0000

I had the opportunity to spend a few days as a guest at 7D Ranch just outside of Cody, Wyoming. A true “dude ranch” running continuously for over 50 years and managed by the 3rd generation of the Dominick family. Hanging out with experienced wranglers like Jeff and top game trackers like Meade made me truly appreciate [...]

Alpine Slide at Mount Hood Oregon

While visiting Portland, Meghan and I couldn’t help but point the motorcycle in the direction of Mount Hood. The drive along Route 26 is glorious and the weather that afternoon couldn’t be better for a ride up the steep, windy road which passes through small towns like Sandy, Oregon. As we got further up the [...]
