Brought my “A – Game” to Washington, DC yesterday as I just knew that I needed to make the effort to finally get involved in documenting the ongoing demonstrations and struggle against police brutality here in the U.S. It was really good to run into a few old newspaper and agency colleagues in Freedom Plaza, […]

He liked to call himself a “bluesologist” and I’d heard in one interview […]

Personal Work. NGO volunteerism. Self-assigned projects. Whatever you want to call these initiatives that we photojournalists undertake throughout our careers, I wanted to again look at one of my ongoing projects that I’d previously posted to the website last year, and figured it was now time to post it here as well. In combination with […]

Now that the software for producing multimedia pieces for the web have become much easier and user friendly, I’m going to occasionally add some of my personal projects here on the blog.
