I find it incredibly rewarding to witness the success of my students, whether it's through gallery representation, a featured exhibition, a magazine feature, or just the creation of beautiful images.

This is the fourth in my interview series, and it features the work and words of Endre Balogh.

This is the third in a series of "Success Stories";  interviews with my students who have met with success. In this post, I'd like to take a moment to discuss the meanings of “success”, which can be different for different people. Interestingly, Garreth Broesche, the subject of this post, speaks to ...

It's no secret that I love vintage tools, and I was so excited when Vera found this beautiful vintage tool belt a few weeks ago. I couldn't wait to shoot it!

It was a very complex image to light and edit… but, taken one piece at a time, it's really no more difficult than a simple image… There is ju...

I often get asked by students (or by attendees of a presentation that I'm giving) whether their shooting space is large enough. I typically recommend that a space of 4' x 5' or so is the minimum that you would need, and Light Painting a Still Life is completely do-able in that small space! That said...
