Light study

Up early this morning working on some photos and I came across these two photographs taken last January, 2012. There is a whole series of these … I was studying the light in my (brand-new at the time) apartment. I decided to bring them out of the archives and post them here. Love this sort of thing.
Have a nice Sunday.

In Los Angeles last month, Lauri Kranz of Edible Gardens LA hired me once again to shoot a few of the gardens she is working on around the city. We had a great day — we photographed the edible gardens she planted & tends at LACMA and at 2 private clients’ homes.
I can’t show you all of the photos right now – but I wanted to share a couple of photos from the shoot.
And you can see photos from our last shoot together here.

I’m really blown away by veteran photographer Sam Abell’s work and career. Highly recommended: this video and this interview. Amazing, amazing stuff.
And a photo set here and here. (Thanks to my friend Walter for sharing Sam’s work with me)

Working hard behind the scenes these days. Editing and prepping many, many photos from California. Working on a big portfolio re-org/re-launch. Scheming up business ideas, looking for new clients & new work. Learning tough lessons. Planning a portrait series and feeling excited about it. Tired of winter and NYC but trying to channel this disillusion into my work.
Also feeling squeezed and overwhelmed by the internet lately. So much hustling and posturing and copying and wanting. I’m looking for a quieter place … perhaps it’s time to step outside of the online info blast for a while. Spending less time online, and more time with real books and thoughtful movies and actual face-to-face conversation.
The winter continues; it’s snowing hard today and I’m thinking that snowstorms in March are never as nice as snowstorms in December. Happy to have photographic memories of California sunshine right now.
Jesse & Loren’s Brooklyn Apartment
















. . . . . . .
I recently photographed a great apartment in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn for friends Jesse & Loren. They have excellent style and I really like the open & airy space, so it was a pleasure to shoot it. Above are a few of my favorite photos.
They are in the process of selling the loft, though — so if anyone is looking to buy a place in Brooklyn, here is the listing!
. . .
Also, if you have a space that you would like to hire me to photograph – for any reason! – please do get in touch. I’m always looking for new work, and I enjoy photographing distinctive interiors.
