I had a great time photographing real women for a story on potential age. Worked with a great prop stylist, Teri Cotruzzola.

I saw this post on What the Jackonary. Wow! I love his collection of imagery from his travels. I was hoping he was working digitally, but no, he is shooting 4 x 5 film with a Linhof. Makes you just want to run back to film. A 4 x 5 polaroid is just such a treasure.

Running with it.

2009-07-23T20:33:00.000-07:00

I can't resist the opportunity to jump in. New client, Runner's World. I really enjoyed photographing the sports models, they were track stars in my book. It was a lot of running and their form was fantastic. It's always nice not faking it.

a quiet moment, no not really.

2009-07-16T20:19:00.000-07:00

ahh..It was a great day. Great clients, great gals, great energy. Zom DJ'd music that kept us moving the whole time. Images to come soon.

Hydrated Skin in Family Circle August 2009

2009-07-13T11:37:00.000-07:00

This was a fun story to shoot. Working with water adds that hard to control element. It can be beautiful or just really funny. The outtakes gave me a laugh. The bonus of the shoot was I got to walk out with my own kiddie pool! Now if the summer would just warm up! (I know I will be regretting that phrase in August.

I'm back to give my little tidbits.

Over at What the Jackonary, I saw Sven! What a cool guy. We use to work together at a studio when we were greenhorns just trying to get a glimpse into the commercial photography realm. Ah, the 90's.

thank you A Photo Editor

Family Circle in Jamaica

2008-03-01T07:37:00.000-08:00

We had a blast, Zomnia and Simon kept the party going. Had enough time to see a little island get some good food and have some time in the ocean. I ma lucky to get to hang with such great clients!

I got the Newsweek Cover for 02/11/08

2008-02-05T15:06:00.000-08:00

Check out Newsweek for my cover shot of Senator John McCain.
Newsweek sent me to Washington and I shot the Senator (and Republican presidential candidate?) in one of the Senate meeting rooms. It was a whirlwind shoot, he had places to go and things to do, but he still stretched our ten minute window to twenty minutes. He was super nice and cooperative.

Happy holidays in Michigan

My parent's subdivision is full of deer. It's amazing to see but also sad that they have lost there habitat and have become overpopulated.

Holidays and the fleeting snow!

2007-12-01T21:16:00.000-08:00

I remember when snow was so deep and endless as a child. Now we periodically get a storm that leaves snow on the ground for a day or two. Upstate we had a few good days.

Matt even had a chance to make a snowman!

The Heart Gallery

2007-08-18T17:56:00.000-07:00

Saturday I got to participate with the Heart Gallery in NJ. It's an organization that helps get older foster kids adopted. I got to meet a lot of great kids and participants. I photographed 2 kids for the gallery show they will have in the fall. It was a great experience and the bonus was they served BBQ for lunch!

Porsche 356 Registry, Boyne Highlands, MI

2007-07-06T07:04:00.000-07:00

I spent the last weekend of June at the 356 Registry's Annual East Coast Holiday. My husband and brother-in-law are very much involved. To my surprise, there didn't seem to be any women sporting cars, a lot of supportive wives, but no women collectors. I may have missed them since I was an observer and not a participant in the holiday. The 356 Registry seems to be the older white man's club, I guess the cost and limited quantity inhibits many. Unfortunately, I won't break that bubble cause I would rather have a 911!
