Killer Shoot

iPhone Sunset
This photo was shot a couple of days ago along the Hudson River. Christian had just bought some new sunglasses at the Columbus Avenue street fair. Seemed like a good use of my new iPhone’s 2.0 megapixel camera. I think it showed off the sunset reflection fairly well. — Posted from my iPhone

The living room now is a studio complete with a portrait background (yes that same cheesy portrait background that they used for all your school [...]
Two shoots on July 4th

Then along came television journalism and I put down my film still camera for a television camera. Now 25 [...]
