In that meadow (encore!)
I like this photo though I think it is a bit odd. Emily thinks it’s dark. Dar thinks it’s cool.
Before the waters rise.
Do you have a place that you never tire of? In recent years it’s been the meadow behind my parents house for me. Even though today was hectic Dar and I still managed a little jaunt to snap some photos. Soon the water will rise and we won’t be able to go back there - but for now it’s home. More photos to come (with Dar actually in them!)
Hard Hat Heaven for ROB (and a little bit of rock and roll)
Above you’ll see a shoot I did for the Report on Business last month right before I went to Mexico. I was really excited to work on this project because it involved multiple environmental portraits shot with a tilt shift lens. Usually I shoot landscapes this way and it was a fun challenge to add a person in - I’m definitely proud of the result. It’s so nice when you’re hired to take photos that you would take anyways. You can see the whole spread here and you can read the article here.
It feels like winter just whizzed by this year. None of the usual lazing around pasting things in my journal and shooting tons of creatives. I shot a plenty of stills I love while in Mexico - and since I’ve been back I’ve been happy to let my camera be while I’ve been processing and captioning. I’ve discovered over the years that it’s creatively constructive to take extended breaks from one medium and pour yourself into another. My spare time (which has been sparse) has been poured into drumming and making lovely music with neglected friends - it has been incredible fun.
So that’s it. Goodbye winter! Stay tuned friends - the spring includes two exhibitions, a feature for World Vision’s magazine and a return trip to Mali.
