2010 fashionSPARK Show

Possibly the most glamourous part of every year’s SPARKcon is fashionSPARK. It’s a pretty fun event to shoot for those of us who don’t do regular fashion gigs. Even from the non-official photographer corral. #gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2... Read More

January 2010 Wallpaper

So inspired by David duChemin’s “wallpaper as calendar plan” I’m going to crank out one every month this year. I’m sure it’ll be a mix of old and new. Hopefully more new than old. See, the plan is to use this in a complicated series of carrots and sticks to make sure I pick up the camera a bit more this year. To get things going we’re going to jump back into an image from the last post actually. As soon as... Read More

2009 FashionSPARK Preview

Managed to catch part of the show for this year’s fashionSPARK. One year I’ll get there early enough for prime runway real estate, but this year I settled for sniping from the sidelines. A few shots from the set (that I still need to finish editing). Tomorrow I’m shooting a project for Rebuilding Together and scouting some locations for a cover. A busy weekend after a busy week. #gallery-4 { margin: auto; } #gallery-4... Read More

Kirby Derby

Part parade, part drag race, part derby. Really, that’s all I got for this annual (damn near) Raleigh institution. With a new theme every year Kirby Derby’s costumes, floats and derby entries are always entertaining. This will be a bit of a rolling gallery. As events happen and I can go, I’ll update. Enjoy! #gallery-5 { margin: auto; } #gallery-5 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align:... Read More
