10am Update: Al Paglione from EAW

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.

Creepy light test

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.

Under the light

Reservoir’s David Kuper, bottom, lost to River Hill’s Evan Shebel 11-2 during the 140 weight match. Reservoir defeated guest River Hill 42-16 Tuesday, January 5, 2010.

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 wide [...]

10am Update: Smoking from a Sprite Bottle

So… this is our China Bus Driver.  He’s smoking “something” out of a Sprite bottle. Most of us on the bus think it’s pot. This other modern dancer we met at the bus stop, Andrea, worried it was opium. Maybe this guy just likes the way Sprite makes his tobacco taste. right? Well, we [...]

“Neighbor Cats” paw prints, Thursday, December 31, 2009.
As a rule I don’t like cats. …mostly because they make it hard for me to breathe.
Admittedly, I enjoy watching cats from a far. And my favorite kind of cat is ferrel. They keep the mice away. We’ve got a family of 4-6 cats living in our alley [...]

Don't Step to this!

(L-R) Marty Day, Nick Borkowicz, and (cough cough) Me. This was shot this back in May, 2006.
We got a wild hair up our asses one night. cheap sunglasses, headbands, and novelty gold medals… boom!
Believe it or not, the structure behind us is — check this out — made of styrofoam!!!!! Marty’s step dad does some [...]


Test Shot

Test Shot

If no one else is around, this is how I sometimes test out my lighting set up.
Truth be told, I had a fun Maryland Family shoot article about old wives tales, specifically about how childrens’ faces are threatened to “stick.”
