From the series China Everbright

My series, China Everbright, will be shown again in Shanghai on Dec. 7, 2011, as part of Tim Franco‘s periodic Photographer Night at Dada Bar at 115号 Xing Fu Lu, Chang Ning Qu, Shanghai, China. Here’s the facebook invitation for the event. The work was previously shown at this location for the Beijing + Shanghai Jue Art Festival, and now it returns for a “Best of” night, curating the best presentations in the year-long photography series. Thanks to Tim for supporting photography of China!


Images featured in Photo/arts Magazine’s My Own Wilderness exhibition and book


November 18th, 2011

I’m excited to announce that two of my images, from the series on China’s zoos Small Concrete Boxes, have been selected for inclusion in My Own Wilderness, an online exhibition and book created by Christopher Paquette of Photo/arts Magazine. You can see a high quality version of the exhibition/slideshow at Vimeo and a list of included photographers here. More than 150 photographers submitted over 700 images to the call for entries; 50 photographers made the cut. Thanks to Christopher and congratulations to the winners!


Tearsheet: Providence After School Alliance for Education Week


November 12th, 2011

Education Week is rapidly becoming a favorite client. Their assignments always cover interesting subjects and the editors (Nicole and Charlie) love to see creative takes on those subjects. Most recently, I traveled in Smithfield, Rhode Island, to photograph urban school children on a nature walk at an Audubon site. You can see a few images from the shoot in the recent work section of this website or in my archive.

2011 Montana Winter Guide - featuring an image of M. Scott Brauer

I get sidetracked into thinking of my photos only in the context of newsstand papers and magazines, so I’m always happy to find unconventional uses for them. One of my pictures, from Showdown Ski Area in central Montana, was featured in this year’s Winter Guide (available in hotels and tourist locations in the Western US and as a free PDF) published by the Montana Office of Tourism. You can see other images from Showdown in my archive or elsewhere on this site.


Occupy Boston on my portfolio site


November 6th, 2011

OccupyBoston protesters link arms around the tents in preparation for a planned police action at their second encampment at Rose F. Kennedy Greenway a block from Dewey Square, in downtown Boston, Massachusetts, USA.  The police and city officials warned protesters that they would be forceably removed from the site by midnight.  At about 1:30am police moved into the park, arrested approximately 100 protesters, and cleared the park of all tents and other protest materials.  The protesters are part of OccupyBoston, which is part of the OccupyWallStreet movement, expressing discontent with the socioeconomic situation of the 99% of the US population who are not wealthy.  Protestors have been camping in Dewey Square since Sept. 30, 2011. Gradually, larger organizations, including major labor unions, have expressed their support for the OccupyBoston effort.

I’ve just uploaded to my portfolio site a selection of images from my coverage of OccupyBoston, a protest that has been going on in downtown Boston since late September 2011. An offshoot of the Occupy Wall Street movement, protesters in Boston have camped in Dewey Square and hosted a number of marches and educational events at their encampment and throughout Boston. See the images here or license images from a broader edit at my archive here.
