Name | Troy Charles Schmidt

Equipment | I thrive on the long range lenses. The longer the better for me.

Something I always have with me on photoshoots | CF cards. Yeah I know should be a no brainer, but I have left the studio without them before.

3 things on my desk right now | I actually just cleaned it up. Orders to be placed, two Christmas gifts for wedding clients we had old addresses for, and an order to be mailed. Did I mention I do the ordering?

What do you never leave home without | My man bag. Ever since I got it I haven’t left it. I keep my keys, wallet, and a notepad to keep track of my to do list.

Biggest Daily Challenge | To wake up. I am the WORST morning person ever. I have slept thru an alarm going off for an hour. My alarm use to be the radio on HIGH before we had kids. I would be interested in an electro shock alarm if it comes out.

Favorite image as of late

What’s playing on your ipod today?

Favorite food | My absolute favorite is the Engineer Sub fully involved from Firehouse subs. They eat like a meal. My favorite snack is Hall’s on the River beer cheese and Wavy Lays.

Things I love | “I still love technology, but not as much as I love you.”

I always cry when | Our wedding couples see each other for the first time. I can still remember the first time I saw Amber.

What do you do when you are not working | I play CoD4 and dabble in web development.

Theory on life | No matter what I do just try and be nice. Doesn’t matter what is going on, what anyone else does, just be nice.
