Holy Smokes! I’m in 2nd place.
I know this sounds like I’m bragging — and well, I guess I am a little, but not in a cocky way. It’s more like a “super excited” kind of bragging.
I did really well in the recently judged September clip contest. The monthly clip contest doesn’t really go in order. December’s already been judged, for [...]
The iPad. A “RECEIVING” space.

I feel cheesy reposting a response as an article, but I think the topic of space association is important when talking about these new devices.
You know how you were told not to do your homework on your [...]
HAT TRICK! NPPA: Monthly News Clip Contest
WooHoo!!! I cleaned up in the Illustration category for December’s NPPA: Monthly News Clip Contest.
mini Foodfolio
Food is surprisingly a challenging subject to photograph. Well, it is if you wanna keep your chops sharp. I’ve learned a bunch of tricks when it’s food shoot season. Natural light, as usual, can be your friend. That’s what I used with the Iron Bridge photos. A dark table and gorgeous, window-lit fall-off, gave an [...]
Light the Emotion!
Ben Bender linked to an article on Emotional Lighting when he commented on my recent post, Shoot the Emotion!
So, since I love to use lighting, I think it’s worth discussing.
Now, this may not be the best photo to describe emotional lighting, buuuut, it’s by far the most convenient. I shot it Saturday.
I gotta ask: is [...]
Shoot the Emotion!
If I was to give myself some professional New Years resolutions, this is one of them.
“Shooting the emotion” weighs heavier to viewers than cool, graphic images. Using rad light and a bad-ass compositions, don’t cut to the core. They’re just eye candy.
Don’t get me wrong, I LOOOOOVE eye candy. When I look over my work, [...]

His New Heart, Part 2.
Halloween.
Dressed like a cheerleader, using his sister’s River Hill pom-pom uniform, Noah Thyberg, 11, goes trick-or-treating with more than a dozen friends around the River Hill neighborhood Saturday, October 31, 2009. The mask isn’t part of his costume, it’s a post-heart transplant operation preventative measure.
The written story is here and here is Part 1.
I knew, [...]
His New Heart, Part 1.
The vertical scar on Noah Thyberg’s chest is from the heart transplant surgery he received September 3rd. The scar is no problem for the eleven-year-old; it’s the puffiness of his face that makes him self conscious. “I don’t look like me.” His rounder features are a side effect of Prednisone, a prescribed steroid he must [...]
