You Say Goodbye, I say Hello.
Things changed, some stayed the same, but 2010 was a year of moving forward, and 2011 will bring more light, more love, and more motion. I’m excited for days to come.
2010 was love. 2011 will be.
The rest of the Christmas Eve Photos.
More to come on the shine and the shimmer, but for now don’t let the lights grow dimmer. It’s time to celebrate.
Twas the Night Before Christmas...
And all through the house…
I heard, “Oh my gawwwwdd”

The Big Picture.
I was talking to Matt about year end photo reviews last night. We love them and we hate them. We love them because they’re phenomenally special, and we hate them because they make us feel like idiots. Particularly the Boston Globe’s Big Picture.
As a photographer it’s like a punch to the gut to see the most incredible photos of the most important things that took place this...

Submit to Love.
The giant box of good and plenty in human form I call Jules, alerted me of this contest yesterday.
Focus on Love.
He asked, “How could you not win this?”
I answer, “Well, Jules, there are many ways I could not win this. Many of my photos aren’t so much love ‘action’ as they have a contextual feeling that relates to all of us. I do have some photos that spew...

More Warm Things.
A beautiful gathering of beautiful people. The most warmth a human could feel.
I was holding onto several of these images because I thought they were good enough to be published on their own. It’s blistering outside, and I decided it was time to turn the heat up a little.
We Are Love:
I worked for this.
This is love.
NikiDiki make you say an infinite god damn.
And...
It's So Cold.
Bitter cold. Ridiculously cold. Freaky cold. Painfully cold.
Give me some of this. Please.

Big love for Friday.

Medium Format Adventures.
With the Mamiya.
New dawn, new day, new camera, new format, and I’m feelin’ good. Who knew being square could be so cool?
I love this machine. It picks up colors unbelievably, and makes life look just as beautiful as it is.
First rolls didn’t turn out so bad. A quick taste:
From the Avenues…
