MyMidwest/Soul of Athens

MyMidwest, the Midwest Airlines flight magazine recently wrote up a little piece about last year’s Soul of Athens project where I had some portraits included in a project called “Rural Progressives.” Jenn Poggi, formerly of U.S. News and World Report and now working in the White House photo department helped me produce the online piece.

Max Bittle

I’m going to use this moment in my Tuesday morning to point any of you readers to a beautiful new website by Concord, NH photographer Max Bittle.
I’ve watched Max’s work for awhile, since the days when he was a student at Southern Illinois University and would always have better pictures than me in the annual [...]

Classmates: Dinara Sagatova

Dinara, an interactive media student (disclaimer, she’s also my girlfriend) here at Ohio University has just finished a website about the former nuclear test site of Semipalatinsk polygon in her home country of Kazakhstan.

Classmates: Phil DeJong

Classmates : Ross Mantle

They are smart, compassionate, insightful and original. Anyone looking for a freelancer would do themselves a favor to hire him. His [...]

Classmates : Neil Ever Osborne

Part of the reason I came to grad school was to be around people who were as into photography as I was, and to be inspired by them. One such guy wasn’t around last year but came back after a hiatus to join our class.
Check out Neil Ever Osborne’s portfolio … A biologist by training [...]
