Vermont Tourism


Spent a week in Vermont shooting people in the environment - specifically at Quechee Gorge. It rained almost every day which created some pressure to get the shots I wanted. One nice thing about an overcast sky is the great quality of light when shooting in the woods.

The project was to capture real people enjoying the beauty of Vermont. It's titled "You Could Be Here"

Here is a selection images. You can see more on my web site under "New Work" (here)

Characterizations


The portrait is a wonderful thing. Probably my most favorite assignments are portraits. The photographic possibilities are endless. You can shoot in the studio, in a chosen environmental, get close or pull back. Revealing the character of a person is what it's all about. Being able to capturing their mood or showing an emotion inspires me to keep shooting.

Fortunately many of my assignments are portrait related. The wide range of personalities and the variety of advertising concepts produced by clients keeps it all fresh. There's always a different way of portraying an individual. Capturing the character of a person is what keeps me in photography.
