new equation

I shot a story for Redbook Magazine in January. The story is about how a family is dealing with the financial strain of this economy.

The mother was a casualty of layoffs.

The elder son picked up a job to bring in some income for the family.

I shot a story on Oakland Cemetery one year after the tornado. The lead image was made a day after the storm hit last year.

I photographed the head of historical preservation up there in the freezing cold one January morning at sun up. It was around 20 degrees and windy. We were hurtin'.

I'm working with Howry Design out of San Francisco on the Nektar annual report. Justin and I traveled to Huntsville, AL last week to shoot in one of their labs. Justin looks fine in threads of white.

The annual report for Whirlpool is unbelievable. SamataMason put together an extensive interactive site with pulled quotes, images and videos. I shot HD video in seven locations across the globe to create 10 movies for each Whirlpool brand and their CSR.

Until I post them to my site, you can check out the videos on the corporate site here: Whirlpool AR. Under the 'our brands' menu, select each brand for videos and pulled quotes. The movie for each brand will play after you hit the movie icon on the lower left.

The above image was made in Italy. Below are more of the pulled quotes that are on the website:

Of course, the printed book looks great, too:

Just a sampling of the 34 pages of images!

I was shooting in and around Allentown, PA for Redbook Magazine today. I had some time before flying out, so I went to the Martin Guitars factory.

I started at the original factory where they repair and distribute kits.

Across the street was this house, typical of the area, with a big star on the side. I love the branches and the shadows.

Next, I went to the current factory and took the tour.
