Photographer’s Location, Continued.
Our last Q&A discussed how a photographer’s location factors into their career and business. I put this question out to some of my favorite people in the industry and received some amazing responses. Neil Binkley from Wonderful Machine, wrote me a wonderful piece to use in the Q&A. Unfortunately, I could only use an excerptContinue reading “Photographer’s Location, Continued.”
Q&A: A Photographer’s Location
Q&A: How does a photographer’s location affect their career? This is one of the questions I always get asked by photographers. Once upon a time, clients could afford to fly you, your assistants, and your ten thousands bags of equipment anywhere they wanted. Now, with the budgets collapsing and the competition from small towns growing,Continue reading “Q&A: A Photographer’s Location”
Babies are funny
These landed in my inbox today and they make me very happy. I wouldn’t call myself a “baby person” but some of Evan Kafka’s work might convert me. How come I never see these faces in babies? How does he get these expressions? Thanks Evan! Check out more of his baby images here.

Photo of my day
Here is a photograph from a recent advertising campaign shot by our photographer Evan Kafka. Isn’t it gorgeous?! The shot was originally in color, but then Evan thought he’d try transferring it to black and white. Something about this man’s intense look and the way his face falls into his hand make this image completelyContinue reading “Photo of my day”

Online Magazines
While I don’t feel qualified to predict the future of editorial (who is?), I do know what I like.. and I like Issuu. Similar to MagCloud and other online magazine boutiques, Issuu allows its users to publish their own editorial content online. Of course, nothing is perfect and the sites are still evolving. The importantContinue reading “Online Magazines”
Welcome back to work
Happy Thanksgiving to you all! How was it? Did you miss us?? Are you fat and happy now? Well… welcome back to work.
The Photographic Dictionary
I enjoy words almost as much as I enjoy pictures. Sometimes it can be difficult for to combine the two and I believe doing so can either add another level of interest to your images or it can ruin them all together. As a rep, it is much easier to talk about other people’s workContinue reading “The Photographic Dictionary”
