I haven’t yet bought an HD-DSLR so I haven’t been able to produce much video lately. However, I recently joined up with Sunny Tsui to shoot this fun little video as a production test of the Canon 5dmk2. I wanted a quick and easy project to figure out the workflow, so one night I was getting a cup of coffee with Sunny and just as an example of something we could shoot easily, I came up with this idea. I decided to just do it and a week later we were shooting.
belief in god is no excuse for hatred
Lyla Morrison asked me to shoot a photo for a poster project designed with the goal of creating an impact and sparking discussion. I think we succeeded, what do you think?
This photo was done completely in camera with the only photoshop work being basic sharpening, color balance, and the text at the very bottom which states, “belief in God is no excuse for hatred”.

Just try to imagine this guy dancing too…
So here’s a cool one from a wedding I shot recently! I love shooting live music!

Mitch Headshot/Portraits
Mitch is a musician from Atlanta, but lives in Boston. He needed some new promo photos, so he got in touch with me and we went out and had a fun photoshoot and got a lot of great pictures. I had a tough time narrowing it down, but here are my two favorite shots from the day!

New Website for Project Tandem
So I know I’ve mentioned them before on this blog, but two of my friends from Maine made an 11,000 mile journey around the US to document what people are doing on a local level to help the environment.
Well, they’ve just launched a new version of the website complete with photos and audio and an interactive map of the route, so I’m highly suggesting that you check out the great work at www.projecttandem.org
Arcade Fire CD Cover Mockup
I was asked by my friend, Diana, to help with the photography and photoshop composite work on a mock-up CD cover for a band called Arcade Fire. She created a logo and wanted the logo to be in the blown out smoke from a candle on top of a cupcake.
So, grab a cupcake (with sprinkles), a candle, a few studio strobes, and we are all set!

Andrea Fremiotti Gallery at Big Studio
Lately I’ve been doing some freelance work for Andrea Fremiotti, who owns Burn Photo, and one of the things I did was help him prepare for a gallery show at Big Studio. I did the printing and coordinated the framing, designed and published a companion book, and then hung the show. The images are stunning aerial photos of housing development areas ‘on hiatus’ because the money ran out during the recession of 2008-2009. He calls this series “Arrested Development”. You should check out www.andreafremiotti.com to check them out and check out his other work as well!

Rainbow Headshot
I was in New York a few months ago and my friend Rainbow needed a headshot for her new acting promo piece. I gave her lots to choose from but I pulled my favorite and converted it to black and white! We went to The Cloisters for the shoot, but I was on a time crunch so I couldn’t explore much, but it seems like a cool place so I’m sure I will go again!

Help Portrait
So on December 12th, there was a group of us who got together and photographed people with low or no incomes, so they could send pictures to loved ones. But it wasn’t just a few of us… it was people all over the country! It was a nation wide event called Help Portrait. I got involved with the APA group and we shot over 100 subjects! Click here for the post on APA’s blog!
This picture is of Stephanie Richardson shooting and if you look carefully you can see me holding a reflector!

Here’s a picture of Michelle Graham shooting, and if you look carefully you can see me standing in the background not really doing anything!

Here’s a nice video that Jason Forbart shot, click here to watch it.
It was really cool to be able to offer something like this to people who rarely if ever get a nice picture made of themselves and we had so much fun doing it!
January 27, 2010 - 11:55 pm - what a nice thing to do for those people!
Clinton Library
I was going through some old files looking for something and I came across the photos from a trip to the Clinton Library in Little Rock, Arkansas in March.
