The Toppermost...

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Ron Schultz for the Lawdragon 500, profiling the top 500 lawyers in American. Ron, a Minneapolis based lawyer, is one of the top lawyers being profiled in the upcoming campaign. I wanted to shoot this different that a normal shot you might see and ended up finding this awesome little pocket of light in the exit ramp of a nearby parking garage. So I asked Ron if we could go out, in the 95 degree heat, walk across a work zone and use this small, yet totally great, space. We shot there, the light was good and Ron's suit was perfect. And now, should I ever need (hopefully not!) a lawyer, I know who to call...

Find Us On FOUND FOLIOS...

Excited to be up on Found Folios this year, just recently got up my portfolios which will be changing throughout the year as new work comes in. This is a really cool online portfolio that allows past, present and future clients to see a good selection of work in a easy to navigate format. Right now there are three galleries up to browse, with a diverse selection of work from all sorts of assignments. To check it out, go to Found Folios.
In the process of getting some cool projects under way, some domestic and potential for some over seas. Looks like we might end up in Ecuador next month, camera in hand for some cool shooting. Also hoping to shoot a safari project in Uganda for a start up safari company in early 2011, working out the details...

Finding An Answer...

On a recent shoot for The Garage, we had a lot of great talent on set. The only thing missing was something to bring them together, something for them to interact with to give us the imagery we needed. I came across a small red ball, which ended up being the answer we needed. As they talked, played and laughed, the ball threw in just the right amount of color and distraction. We walked away with some great frames, easily one of the best "distracting red bouncy ball with youth" shoots I have ever done...

From Cover to Cover...

Had the chance to shoot a the cover and a spread for Imagine Pub recently. Have not yet had the chance to see the tears, but am looking forward to see which images they choose to go with... Off to shoot a story for an LA based magazine today...
