Whenever I get the opportunity to see striking photographs from great photographers, I try to take advantage of it and make it a photographic pilgrimage of my own. Sadly, the last time I was able to make a photo-centric trip was back in 2010, when I flew to New York City to see Henri Cartier-Bresson’s […]
With Easter, and work, and the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival getting ready to kick off tomorrow, I haven’t been devoting much of my brain to the blog this week. So instead I’ll leave you with some simple images, from which you can draw your own conclusions. I used a French title to make them […]
I haven’t been to our nation’s capital in about ten years. The last time I was here was before the iPhone, before the iPad, before the avalanche of digital cameras, large and small, simple and sophisticated, in the world marketplace. I’m sure everyone was snapping away then on their film cameras and early digital back […]
Beauty, brawn, panache–they were all on display this past Saturday, March sixteenth at the First Annual Durham Beard and Mustache Contest at Bull McCabe’s in Downtown Durham.

Creativity ebbs and flows, and even when it ebbs, sometimes you feel compelled to create. Sometimes you still have to make […]
Jemmel, Sherisa and I have been trying hard to make this shoot happen, since time is running out before the baby arrives. Fortunately, we found some time and got some photos of a glowing mother and father-to-be!
One very important difference between color and monochromatic photography is this: in black and white you suggest; in color you state. Much can be implied by suggestion, but statement demands certainty… absolute certainty. — Paul Outerbridge Yes, I am perfectly capable of reading a calendar. I see that it is still June.
