Andrzej Kramarz
I recently came across this project entitled Rzeczy (Things) by photographer Andrzej Kramarz. I’m interested in a portrait of a person via their belongings. We are at once aware of both the photographer’s viewpoint and that of the collector. Can a person be defined by their own collection of meaningless trinkets? I immediately see theseContinue reading “Andrzej Kramarz”
Legally Blind Photographer, Part Two
Below is a continuation of a series that I posted a couple of weeks ago “Legally Blind Photographers”. Check out this article by Matt Kettman. The Art and Heart of Blind Photographers Blind photography: the very concept sounds like an oxymoron. But an intriguing and often striking exhibition of photographs in Riverside, California, argues thatContinue reading “Legally Blind Photographer, Part Two”
Dan Winters’ “Periodical Photographs”
A must read! See how Scott Dadich and Dan Winters sorted through the final designs of their new collaboration “Periodical Photographs.” It is so great to see the inspiration and the careful considerations that went into each element of the book. Thank you Scott for posting this!
Bonnie Briant, from Russia with love
Dear Bonnie Briant, you’re pictures make me nostalgic. I’ve been a long time fan of Briant’s work, mainly because she captures her subjects in a way I’ve never seen done before. Her imagery is about memory and the value of sitting still long enough to notice the details. They make me want to relive myContinue reading “Bonnie Briant, from Russia with love”

Many years ago I met a wonderful photographer who was legally blind. She was determined to keep shooting. She contacted Konica, one of the first camera manufacturer to come out with an auto focus camera. As a result of here new system she was able to continue to shoot and exhibit her work. Once againContinue reading “Legally Blind Photographer”

Sad but beautiful photo essay
As image-makers, photographing is the way we deal, the way we understand, and the vehicle to survive within our world. Many times it is the only vehicle to move forward from tragic events. I’ve seen a great deal of photo projects surrounding families and the loss of those close to us. I just came acrossContinue reading “Sad but beautiful photo essay”

Update: Stephen Mallon on Wired
My last post was singing the praises of a photographer named Stephen Mallon (see below). Well looks like I’m one of many fans! Check him out in WIRED here.
Stephen Mallon, Salvage of Flight 1549
I had the wonderful fortune of meeting Stephen Mallon as party recently. Not only are his images stunning but his enthusiasm for his work was so refreshing and infectious. As a rep, the excitement of photographers who are clearly invested and passionate about their work is simply contagious and, when the images are good, makesContinue reading “Stephen Mallon, Salvage of Flight 1549”
“Travelers” by Walter Martin and Paloma Munoz
First of all, this project is absolutely amazing. It makes me excited and refuels my faith that there are original ideas out there for the taking! It’s funny, it’s lighthearted, it’s frightening… more than anything it’s complicated in a way that holds my attention for more than a few seconds like most crap on theContinue reading ““Travelers” by Walter Martin and Paloma Munoz”
Jake Stangel throws visual snow balls.
Let me tell you a little story… Once upon a time I knew a great guy named Jake Stangel. We studied photography in New York City together and spent endless hours and bottles of wine discussing the “burden of representation” and all other ultra photo-scholastic subjects rarely brought on without the influence of homework. WhenContinue reading “Jake Stangel throws visual snow balls.”
Chris Berntsen gets away from his element.
I’ve always been of the opinion that sometimes you need to get out of your own way to take better photographs. In my own opinion, this is a big problem when you graduate from a photography program. It is possible that the process of analyzing images and putting them into a carefully critiqued historical contextContinue reading “Chris Berntsen gets away from his element.”
Sara Wight and “Beyond the Horizon”
Recently, I came across the photography of Sara Wight. I instantly became a fan of her series Beyond the Horizon. Sara was nice enough to provide some info about her and this project. Ladies and gents…for your viewing and reading pleasure… I present Sara Wight’s Beyond the Horizon! See below links to Sara’s commercial andContinue reading “Sara Wight and “Beyond the Horizon””
Paolo Pellegrin’s “Great Performers” looks better online?
While I never thought I’d say this, I’m starting to enjoy photo essays online. (Gasp!) I know I know… it is almost painful to say out loud. Stop judging and just hear me out! This week’s New York Times Magazine’s gorgeous photo essay “Great Performers” by Paolo Pellegrin may just be what converts me toContinue reading “Paolo Pellegrin’s “Great Performers” looks better online?”
Questions to Manjari Sharma
As promised, here is work from the amazing photographer Manjari Sharma. As I mentioned in a previous post, Manjari and I met at a studio party and found we had oodles of common interests. Already impressed with her evident compassion for her work, Manjari then sent me some images from her most recent trip toContinue reading “Questions to Manjari Sharma”
Sneak peek… Photography by Manjari Sharma
The photography world is so saturated with travel imagery, it isn’t often that a photographer’s travel work really blows me away. This weekend, I met Manjari Sharma at a party and am completely floored by her recent photos from Brazil. Manjari has been kind enough to speak to me about her work and allow meContinue reading “Sneak peek… Photography by Manjari Sharma”
Gamers in a trance
More and more I’m becoming interested in the effect of games on kids and, in turn, adults. I’m not convinced these games are as bad for people as they are made out to be. Whichever side of the spectrum your opinion falls, here is an amazing project called My Game Face by photographer British RobbieContinue reading “Gamers in a trance”

A new take on cowboys…
Walter Lockwood’s photography certainly doesn’t lack a sense of satire. In a new project, Lockwood parodies the cultural staple of a “Spaghetti Western” by inserting Asian characters into quintessential American roles. His project Sukiyaki Western, is meant to explore the changing quality of media and stereotypes. “By casting Asian actors as “Cowboys/Gunslingers” and using aContinue reading “A new take on cowboys…”
Sasha Maslov’s “Prison Theatre”
Yesterday I came across a wonderful project by Sasha Maslov. Sasha was kind enough to provide me with some additional information on his photography and his time in Ukraine. “Fall of 2005. One of the penal colonies in Kharkiv, Ukraine.” “The depressing view of endless gray walls with barbwire on the background of even grayerContinue reading “Sasha Maslov’s “Prison Theatre””
