I’m honored to interview Lance Long. He is an accomplished dance photographer, & his skill at capturing dance and movement in the studio and on the stage is exceptional. Lance’s ability to anticipate the movement & then capturing it has always impressed me, and I look forward to talking with Lance about dance, photography, and art.
Keith was the first Elgin photographer that I met. He’s a full time professional photographer, president of the Elgin Area Camera Club, & on the Board of Directors for Horses & Heroes. He has been a friend for more than 10 years, & I’m excited to talk about running a photo business and still enjoying photography.
I’m excited to interview Doug Hanson about his photography. Doug specializes in antique photography methods, and his enthusiasm and friendliness has helped many others learn about the history and techniques of analogue photography. Doug has presented his art at exhibitions throughout the Chicago area and around the world.
Lauri’s Abstract Architecture photos have captured my imagination since I first saw them. Her images of “Art in Cars” continue to challenge my interest in photographing cars. Lauri teaches others about seeing the world around them in its true beauty & capturing the world in a unique way. I’m honored to talk with Lauri about how she “Sees” the world with her own unique style.
I’m thrilled to interview Ira Marcus as my next Photo Friend. Ira brings a passion and artistic taste to his work, no matter if it’s capturing a beautiful still life scene, pursuing nature photography, or using his photo skills to help a local nonprofit.
I’m thrilled to interview an incredibly talented artist, Nick Mataragas about his various artistic pursuits including his street photography.
Anytime that I attend an event, there is always the question – “how many of my photos do OTHERS want to see from this event?” After all, I take way too many photos and seeing 38 images of the exact same car/plane/waterfall isn’t how most people want to spend their time.
So, as I was driving home after the Eclipse (confident that some of my photos were good), I wondered how I could share the Eclipse without 38 photos of a smaller and smaller wedges of yellow. How about a video? Just 2 minutes long.
Anyway, you should watch it. In fullscreen. On the biggest screen you can find. Obviously.
