Isthmus cover: Deborah Blum

On Friday, I had an exciting photo shoot with Deborah Blum, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and the author of several science-themed books. We did the portrait in the UW-Madison Chemistry Building and with her connections we were lent (under the watchful eye of two professors) some interesting substances for the editorial photo. I really like how the bright colors turned out on this one!

Happy New Years everyone!

I got the year started with a new front cover :)


Sally and I took a bunch of headshots with different lighting and backgrounds and here's the one that was published. I think it looks quite nice. Art director: Carolyn Fath, photo assistant: Ken Udell.

Annual Manual photos

Each year Isthmus puts out a magazine insert into the newspaper. This year I have seven photos in the mag. Here's my favorite one, a portrait of Meteorologist Charlie Shortino.

New portrait photo

Last week I photographed Heidi for the cover of Isthmus newspaper. We met up at University Hospital in Madison and did the portraits there. For the cover image I dragged the shutter to backlight the photograph in order to create the mood of the image.

Isthmus newspaper cover, May 1, 2009

Last week, I photographed Matt Rothschild, the editor of The Progressive magazine which is celebrating it's 100th anniversary this weekend. The shoot went smoothly and the weather cooperated which is always an added bonus. Pick up Isthmus for the full story including information on The Progressive's weekend celebrations with performances and appearances by: Ani DiFranco, Indigo Girls, Dar Williams, Robert Redford and Sen.
