When Shelly and I moved into our house last year( 2007), I had all intentions of meeting my surrounding neighbors. My first thought was since we were the new gang in the hood... it would be their responsibility to do the greeting. Glad I wasn't holding my breath... Hey that's ok... everybody is pretty busy these days... at least that's what I hear all the time. After living here for a few months, I would casually throw my hand up to everybody I made eye contact with so they'll know that I'm not on the wanted dead or alive list. To make a really long story short, I winded up meeting a few neighbors by accident. My next door neighbor was selling their house so I went over to give my usual hate to see ya go speech and then engaged in a conversation about photography. Next thing you know he points towards the house next to him and says.. "if you like photography then you need to meet this guy over here, he is into photography". So after hearing that I went over and just knocked on the door. Turns out this guy is a photographer for the Carolina Panthers... and his name is Steve Lindenman. Actually, Steve is a very active photographer around here. If you check out his site, you will see that he has been shooting several events for quite some time. Football-pro and high school, boxing.. all kinds of things. There is even a few celebrity shots in there. To top it off, Steve is a super cool guy...he has already been a big help to me and hopefully one day I will have the knowledge he has about photography. Something else I really like about Steve is that he doesn't boast about what he does. I know so many people that love to boast about everything they do, like they're better then you. Steve is just an easy going, laid back kinda fella. If you ever get a chance to meet this guy, you will know exactly what I'm talking about.
When you get a chance, cruise over and check out Steve's site at http://www.lindenmanphoto.com/
