Orange girl makes good!
Jen Whitney, one of our former Oranges who’s gone back to photojournalism grad school at the top school in the nation – the University of Missouri – recently got her first front page lead photo for the Columbia Missourian. While we miss Jen here, she’s getting valuable experience and learning a lot about farm animals and 4H to boot – things we definitely were not able to teach her here at Orange!
Art imitates life imitating art?
So I went to check out The Matthew Barney Show at BOCA and thought it was pretty cool. As I was perusing the various pieces, there was one collage in the smaller room that had all sorts of pix of Matthew and his girlfriend Bjork. I noticed that one of the shots was actually one I took for the SFMOMA where his Drawing Restraint 9 is exhibiting (and coincidentally where I will be in about ten minutes).

East Coast parties
The last couple weeks I was out on the East Coast shooting in NYC, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, PA. It was also in the middle of the nationwide heat wave and it was hot everywhere. This was a shot from an after party at Salon in NYC on Saturday night…

One exception was out on a dry lake bed in the Nevada desert waiting for a model to change outfits when just looking up gave me something to admire and a brief moment of bliss…

ASMP panelists

Topics discussed included marketing strategies, a look at the state of event photography today, as well as leveraging technology and what it takes to make it in the competitive market. Much of what was brought up we covered [...]
When in Rome…
Finally got around to posting some pictures from my trip to Italy in May. I visited Rome, Florene, Venice, and the Amalfi coast for both vacation and my friend’s wedding. It was an extraordinary trip and one I will never forget. This picture is from a series of photos of this good-looking couple in Rome hanging out an a street corner enjoying both their gelato and each other. However i was able to catch this moment of [...]
we love vino in the summer time
…or any time of the year really. But no words can express this as much as these pics do…. We unfortunately cannot disclose the winery at which these photos were taken as we might be forever banned from it…and this would be bad.
Matthew Barney at SFMOMA
We shot the opening for the Matthew Barney exhibition at SFMOMA last night and it was a really great event. Of course his girlfriend Bjork was also on hand and the whole fourth floor had been transformed so the space really felt opened up.
