Non-Profit Showcase: Duke Lemur Center
Ever since I was young, I was fascinated with lemurs and years ago learned about the Duke University Primate Center (as it was then called). The facility was founded in 1966 on the campus of Duke University in Durham, NC. As they state on their website, "the Duke Lemur Center (DLC) is a world leader in the study, care, and protection of lemurs—Earth’s most threatened group of mammals. With more than 200 animals across 14 species, the DLC houses the world’s most diverse population of lemurs outside their native Madagascar.
Badlands and Yellowstone National Parks photography
As part of my project to find subjects that practice Buddhism, I embarked on a 6 week tour of the northwest part of the US. Naturally, part of my motivation is to visit national parks along the way and my first two stops where Badlands and Yellowstone.
Winter 2023 Photography Studio Updates
The marketing team of Allianz engaged with us for their wonderful client reception at the venerable Ferry Building. Additionally, we were on the show floor at Riskworld interviewing their employees on video on how they support their clients in a risky world and how nice it was to be back in-person at these live events.
Recent Non-Profit Photography and Video Projects for Fall 2022
With so many corporate clients on our roster, it's always a nice change0up when we work with some of our favorite non-profits such as the World Wildlife Foundation. We had the chance to document one of their important events in NYC with regards to the challenges of plastic waste in the world.
Summer Highlights
We're excited to be working again with one of the industry leaders in large production management, Opus Agency. We've worked with them for many years prior to the pandemic and was grateful that we were about to serve them on a year-long engagement for Amazon Web Services. AWS hosts developer summits in numerous metropolitan cities and worked directly with us to manage their photo needs in all those markets.
Jack’s Southern Migration Tour
Jack embarked on a southern migration a few weeks ago to escape the Michigan winter and work on his multimedia project, Beyond the Cushion. Having been in lock down for the past several years like everyone else, this is the first time he is able to use this nimble conversion van for an extended period to efficiently travel and stay inconspicuous! It has been a fruitful journey being to interview a number of people for the project and see some of the less visited national parks! Here are a few small samples of the journey thus far.
Southwest Highlights
The second segment of my epic road trip was in the Southwest and even though it was in the winter months, the weather was great during that time of the year. The great thing about the arid southwest is that things don't look that different compared to the summer. Undoubtedly my two favorite cities during this segment was Sedona and Santa Fe for different reasons. Like Bend OR, Sedona is a bit of any outdoor lover's dream with the vast array of things you can do almost year around. Meanwhile, Santa Fe had the hippie eclectic charm and spiritual energy that made me feel right at home. No doubt, I will spend more time in this part of the west in the future.
Jack launches a new portfolio website
As a silver lining of the great pandemic of 2020, I took some time (actually a lot of time) to reflect on my body of work and put together some 'highlights' from the past 20 years of professional work. Ironically, the bulk of what I've pull together is a very small percentage of the type of work that I normally do for our corporate clients.
