Recent Trade Show Photography Work
Recent Trade Show Photography Work
Seems like almost forever since I last posted here. Been hanging out mostly on Facebook. It’s been so long, in fact, that the WordPress dashboard controls have changed…twice.
I’ve now been a full-time photographer (shooting mostly trade show exhibits and designer jewelry) for over five years. Can’t even believe it myself…

Grabbing a few minutes with a new lens at the SD Safari Park…
It’s been work, work, work, recently (trade shows, jewelry shoots, teaching and some rare portrait work) which has kept me from just grabbing my camera and playing. Doubly frustrating because I’ve recently gotten a much-desired long lens and have had precious little time to even get a feel for the thing. Which has been driving me crazy. So I played hooky for a couple of hours recently and ran…

Naty Silver Jewelry
I’ve just finished a massive jewelry photography assignment for Cecilia Nataly and her partner, Kenneth Baker. Cecilia is a wonderfully talented designer working in silver and precious stones. She is from Peru and her designs are fabricated by craftsmen there. Ken handles the business side of the company. I love Cecilia’s beautifully designed work. Some pieces are elegantly simple. Some,…

Getting back in the saddle
It’s been way too long since I last posted. The reasons are all positive. The tradeshow side of my little photo business has been growing nicely and, consequently, I’ve been as busy as can be. But it’s more than that. As with almost anything, once you get out of the habit, climbing back into the saddle can be hard. All of a sudden, you can’t find time to do those things you really enjoy…

Chasing and Repouseé cuff by Denny Turner
Chasing and Repouseé cuff by Denny Turner
Denny Turner is a gifted metalsmith and talented practitioner of the art of chasing and repouseé. He’s based here in San Diego, CA.
The best I can fathom, chasing and repouseé is hammering the living crap out of malleable metal and, by doing so, creating all kinds of wonderful outward and inward shapes. (Metalsmiths everywhere just involuntarily cringed…)
Denny teaches both beginning and…

Where else would you go first when you find yourself in San Antonio?
Where else would you go first when you find yourself in San Antonio?
One of the things that keeps business travel sane and fresh for me is to steal a couple of hours, generally in the early, early morning, to get out and shoot the town or a specific location, first as night photography and a little later in the gorgeous light that you only see at the break of day.
And since I was in San Antonio, where else would I go but the Alamo?
It didn’t disappoint. The first…

Jonna’s at the San Diego Bead Bazaar
The annual San Diego Bead Bazaar takes place this weekend at the Scottish Rite Center in Mission Valley. Jonna will be exhibiting at the show, showing and selling her work, and demonstrating metal clay techniques.
So the elf has been busy out there in the workshop! She’s been creating jewelry like a madwoman.
Here are a few new pieces you’ll get to see in person (if you come early enough!)…

Old Westbury tower channels the spirit of Bobby Kennedy - circa 1968
Old Westbury tower channels the spirit of Bobby Kennedy – circa 1968
This is the oldest image in my portfolio.
There was a fire in my boyhood home during my senior year in high school, and this image, along with a tiny handful of others, survived only because they had been submitted to a juried art show and weren’t there when an electrical kitchen fire turned our home into an inferno.
My dad, a casual, but wonderful, painter wasn’t so lucky. Almost all of his…

The single best reason to attend a trade show Two words: Squeezable swag.
E3/LA was this summer's epicenter of computer gaming. And Wargaming.net was the heart and soul of E3.
E3/LA was this summer’s epicenter of computer gaming. And Wargaming.net was the heart and soul of E3.
I keep making noises about how busy I am with the trade show side of my business, but it’s been quite a while since I actually showcased any exhibit photos. What follows is a gallery showing views of one spectacular project from the E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo) show. Taking up every square inch of the LA Convention Center, E3 has to be experienced first-hand to be fully appreciated. …
