i recently purchased a set of Radiopopper JrX gizmos. they’re radio frequency triggers used to fire flashes off-camera. i wanted to use the Allentown Fair as a backdrop for some interesting experiments with the new devices. before we started, we had a bit of a scare as they seemed to be triggering randomly and withoutContinue reading “Radio Controlled”
What’s That

Chaos Theory
a colleague at my day-job recently set his communicator status (the nearest thing we’ve got to a facebook stream in the office) to a quote from a fortune cookie. normally they’re just rubbish and often poorly translated adages. but this one struck a particular chord with me. “Before the beginning of great brilliance, there mustContinue reading “Chaos Theory”

Contrasts Exhibit at Monsoon Galleries
Two premier fine art photographers, Olaf Starorypinski and Scott Nichol share their very different visions of the female form as expressive subject. Each artist will show works from series that evoke the passionate and the pastoral, the industrial and the ephemeral.
Out Takes
i’ve found over the past year or so that when i choose to work with a given model, the characteristics i look for have changed significantly. as a young, inexperienced figure photographer, i tended to look only for beautiful features, great figures, and a certain kind of hair style that i might think would workContinue reading “Out Takes”
