Matt and Jaren Cerf produce&record; dance tracks and have become some of Trance/House music heros. Matt's unique production style and Jaren's Vocals made for one of Dance music's biggest productions of 2007. Light the skies.
We have been friends since I took on my dance music career in photography. They had just finished green screening a music video and had extra studio time.
I setup for an hour or two and had some fun!
Another e-flyer.
Providing Imagery :)
.......for this cool Pan Pot flyer. Although it was web-only it's pretty snazzy and i'm going to have it printed. :)
Used my images from the last Pan Pot.
It's time to take the crown, to the underground. ;)
^ ^ ok ok, I just made that up.

As Hunter S. Thompson might say, Hollywood is a cruel and shallow money trench, a plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.Posted in: avalon , beatport , beatportal , csoltis , droog , happenings , magda , nightlife , photography , updatesEver since the booming 1930's movie industry, Hollywood's reputation has been double-sided.......
I just dug this one out of the archives and retouched it.
At bunker; we dance and laugh and sing, I took this in the early morning.
BigShot came out to DROOG, Lee Foss and Mathew Jonson and wrote a little article up for a post on the site.

my friend rene dancing to a funky track
lol
yay! here's my last one.
I've also covered this for my pointnshoot series.
Björn and Jaime are some of my best friends! I met Björn in 2005; October 8th to be exact. A dance party at Circus/Spundae in Hollywood. We had previously communicated online over a chat forum. Many a goodtimes we've had!!!!! A little over a year later, Björn met Jaime at the exact same venue.
They have just returned from Sweden, where family and friends wed them off.
A reception was held on Los Angeles as well, unfortunately; I do not have that many frequent flyer miles, I did not go to Scandinavia. ;)
THANK YOU!
Some of my favorite shots from a great impromptu style wedding @ Redondo Beach. The reception was at a great hotel in the harbor: Hotel Portofino. It was a beautiful evening. After the pre-wedding setup, introductions and appetizers; The Ladies in one car and the Gentlemen in the other, we drove down to the spot, walked onto the beach, and started the ceremony.
Heath and Lena are friends of mine, her sister Joanna introduced us. She is in the blue dress.

Posted in: csoltis , photography , portfolioSo, we got a monster snowstorm here in Ohio this weekend. Columbus was hit hardest with just over 20 inches of snow, but we got dumped on here in Akron as well with 15” reported at the local airport.
My roommate has a snow blower so we didn’t have to break our backs shoveling out a ridiculously long driveway. Best. Invention. Ever.
Anyway, have some photos:
Crazy stuff, but we do seem to get most of our heaviest snows later in the winter. At any rate, we’ve had a proper snowstorm so now I’m definitely ready for spring. 
Can't say I want to write anything too substantive on these links, but I do want to get them out there anyway because they're cluttering up my tab bar.
Monsters of the Programming World is a neat little poster anthropomorphizing common programming errors. I've been meaning to pick this up for our office.
Jeffrey Friedl has developed a Lightroom export plugin for Flickr. I haven't had a chance to test it out yet, as I've shamefully not uploaded any pictures to Flickr this year, but it should shave off a few clicks in my workflow if it works well enough.
Ken Rockwell on How To Afford Anything. The great thing about this article is that Ken isn't a personal finance guru, he's a photographer. This article isn't coming from a "I want to be rich" perspective but more from a "I want cool cameras" perspective, which appeals to me greater than the usual run-of-the-mill personal finance article.
Fraser Speirs on his photo editing workflow. Fraser uses Aperture, so his workflow is a bit more flexible than what is allowed (or rather suggested) by Lightroom. Still, some of his ideas carry across between any such application. I particularly enjoyed his rating process, something I currently do without much thought.
I'm working on listening to all of Fred Wilson's Top 10 Albums of the Year. Music recommendations from a VC, who would have thought? Fred's musical tastes are a bit off from mine and listening to his picks is an interesting experience. I haven't gotten through the entire list, but I did grab a copy of the Kings of Leon's Because of the Times, his number one pick. There are some songs I can't stand to listen to, and although the album as a whole isn't memorable, it is very catchy. That is, I can remember parts of songs but I can't identify which song it is or if it's the same part of another song. My biggest disappointment has to be the lyrical work. There's just not a whole lot going on there unfortunately.

England. I’ve finally gotten around to processing the first batch of photos from my trip and posting them on my Flickr account. Here’s a picture of the Yeoman Warder who led my tour of the Tower of London:
I’ve selected some of the better photos from the journey, and you can see a slideshow here. I’ll be adding more from my trip later.

As part of the Line (for Basketball season tickets), we went to Princeton last Saturday to watch the Quakers suffer their third OT loss in a row.
The rest of the photos from the game are here and some other photos from Friday night at the Line are here.

Child of the Corn

This is one of my favorite pictures from the corn maze outside of Boston we went to when I visited over fall break a week and a half ago.
Very creepy and very fitting for Halloween IMHO.

After much debate on which camera to get (Rebel XT, XTi, 20D) I decided to go with the Rebel XTi after getting a huge discount through Dell. No complaints from me! I got the Rebel XTi with the Kit lens, a 50mm prime lens, and 2 2GB memory cards.
I took some new shots on this camera, hope you like them.
