Photoshoot for NYMM - Trista Mabry

Had a really great photoshoot with Nashville musician, Trista Mabry, for New York Minute Magazine. It was a blast and she's an incredible musician.  There were a lot more good photos than we could fit in the article, so here there are.  And, definitely check out the interview here.

That Very Next Thing and New York Minute Magazine

Dear faithful followers:  You may be wondering where I've been lately... It's true, I've been cheating on you.  I've been writing articles for the good folks over at New York Minute Magazine.  Every Monday for the past several weeks, I've posted an interview with a local artist.  So far, I've been fortunate enough to spend that time with some really interesting people.

You can go to New York Minute Magazine now and find interviews with artists like Anthony Snape, Paul Sikes, Michael Castro, Don Gallardo, and Allen Thompson.  And there are more in the works.  Really, though, it wouldn't be a decent photo-blog if I didn't provide exclusive pictures along with the articles.  

Check out some of the photos here, and go to New York Minute Magazine to see the interviews.

How to be a Photographer (Like Everyone Else)...

I recently wrote an Article for New York Minute Magazine entitled "How to be a Photographer (Like Everyone Else)".  It shares references to Ansel Adams, Anne Geddes and Henri Cartier-Bresson and is full of helpful tips such as "Buy a Camera" and "Shoot Weddings".  I believe I actually called wedding photographers lazy.  Anyway, you can see the article here and thanks again to the folks at New York Minute Magazine for supporting the arts.

Pure Brilliany.  Please address all hate mail to Anne Geddes.

Here's a sample:

"Step 4)      Find your subject matter.  Flowers and birds always make good pictures.  Babies are fun as long as they’re asleep.  Bands always need photos and those are easy if you have some abandoned buildings nearby.  Be sure to get a photo of yourself in the mirror for your business cards."
