Your Bio

My name is Sean O'Brien, I have always had a love for photography and am rarely found without a camera. I work full time in the Metro-Boston area as an EMT and currently in school to become a paramedic and then hopefully a firefighter. I enjoy shooting historical scenes, landscape, night photography and fire scenes, news stories just about anything, I have had my work published in several newspapers in the Boston area and on the cover of a nationally distributed magazine. Please check back often for updates, as I am traveling New England to shoot new material each week as time allows. I shoot exclusively with Canon SLR cameras, I run a Canon 50D as my primary camera, with an Canon Xti as a back up.

For those who have commented on photos, thank you very much! It is nice to get positive feed back on my work, gives me motivation to continue to always think of new ways to place something in the viewfinder.

After Dark : Night Photography, longer exposures, keeping the shutter open over an extended period of time to "soak up" the light and produce the images you see here. I enjoy the challenge of night photography, it takes patience, but the results are worth it.
