For the children’s safety none of them are to be identified in the photo. So, what do you do when you can’t show faces? — thank your lucky stars for the sun location, [...]

Al Paglione takes reprise from cooking during the 2006 Eddie Adams Workshop to chomp on a Cuban cigar…This is Al Paglione. He and his son help cook at the Eddie Adams Workshop. Meeting him was pretty great! I was shooting him with my 17-55mm and he was totally jockin’ me about my zoom. He was [...]

10am Update: I heart snow.
This is from December, 2008. Jess drew the heart, and our upstairs neighbor’s dog, Josh, was looking to make some yellow snow. I just got my new full-frame D700 and I was making as many night photos as possible. The drawback — which doesn’t really bother me in this image — is that all my [...]

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 [...]
Rosh Hashana
A new year for Jewish people starts with Rosh Hashana. Rabi Liz Bolton incorporated a recent serious illness she overcame into her “high holy day message,” during Congregation Beit Tikvah’s Erev Rosh Hashana service.
