Emma And The Sand Storm
A selection of images of Emma in a sand storm.
There's a great quote by Joe Mcnally that goes something like, "Pray for bad weather. It makes for great photographs."Emma and I headed out to the desert for an afternoon of shooting and sight seeing. The day started calm enough but a sandstorm came out of nowhere. I had a trunk load of gear and decided to keep with one camera and one lens. You don't want to be taking gear apart in a sandstorm. It was a great risk to keep shooting but the Phase One XF100 survived.
Death Becomes Her
On a recent trip to LA for HGTV I put a call out for portrait subjects. Dani hit me up on one of my social media channels and we set up a shoot with she and her partner, Natalia. I love this new series of portraits because I show up at someone's home, typically someone I am meeting for the first time, and we hang out and make portraits. I rarely, if ever, have any idea what I'm going to be shooting when I arrive. As the old saying goes, "Photography is 1% inspiration and 99% moving furniture." That's exactly how this shoot went.
