I was building my lighting set up for a recent shoot and it resulted in a really cool, dark, creepy image.

The best thing about it, is that it gave me lighting ideas for my upcoming Athletes of the Year shoots. Sunmee Huh is lit with two gridded alien bees to her right and left.

Dripping water from my kitchen ceiling leak. The water is shot against an underexposed fluorescent light. This was made in my old house in SoWeBo, Baltimore, Maryland May 11, 2006.

This is on the fence lining my car port. It just goes to show you can find nice photos anywhere, as long as you’re looking.

Whoa! it’s been a while since I’ve used film.

There’s a frozen bag of old C-41 in my freezer. It’s all expired and it’s been in and out of the freezer so often, I question it’s consistency.

So, I figure the best thing to do with those rolls is to make photos that don’t matter.

And what better tool for those kinds of throw away shots than a toy camera, right!?!

So, on a whim, I bought a chrome Lomo ActionSampler from Urban Outfitters last Winter.

A bunch of the shots didn’t turn out. But a few, I think, turned out really well.

Nicole Liang, seen in the bottom right corner, follows her dad Leon Liang to the parking lot of the Historic Oakland Manor during a meet and greet with with the new Columbia Association President Phil Nelson Thursday, June 25, 2009. As of the meeting, the Liangs have been in Columbia for less than two weeks.

I was there to photograph the new Columbia Association president. The writers really wanted me to show how tall he is. Easy-peasey. I got that shot in the first 5 minutes. I really needed to shoot something more fun. So, I played on the steps.
