News this month!
The full newsletter dives into the bts of an editorial food shoot for LA Times.There are also werewolves.
I had the opportunity to speak again with the studio photography class at Santa Monica Community College. I talked about food photography, the commercial photography industry, and everything I could share with students of value. Gatekeeping is gross. Share what you can.
The Chaos Club Mail Experiment has evolved- now each month club members will also be challenged with a Chaos Quest Card. Maybe serious, maybe spooky, maybe totally absurd or slightly threatening- these instructions will confront the chaos around us. This months print was a hand glazed emulsion lift of a photo from a Moroccan stall. Join the chaos with us to see what’s next.
I worked on a still secret stop motion campaign and accidentally fell in love with a mini light. I used it, as one does to photograph a 3cm set of werewolves.
I am escaping LA for a couple weeks of quiet in New England in Nov. If you would like to book with me for 2026 I am still accepting projects in early Nov and Dec.
Still would love to photograph a cookbook in 2026. ♥
Over and out,
