  1. My (very own) Love Run Half Marathon

    2021-03-29 02:13:00 UTC
    If you’d have told me last spring that I’d be running monthly half marathons by the end of 2020 I’d have said “you’re nuts!”  But given the events of 2020, I shouldn’t be surprised that that’s how things have shaken out.  Back in November I was busy photographing an ad…

  2. Cancer Crusher, Redux

    2017-04-19 17:16:18 UTC
    Three years ago my friend, Alison,  was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. She’d made a comment on Facebook that led to me shooting her portrait when she was still going through chemo (see the original post here). My objective was simple—shoot her followup portrait a few…

  3. Unexpected Turns

    2017-02-11 21:43:18 UTC
    It’s been a little over a year since I was sitting in a The Rocket Cat cafe, a cool little coffee shop in Philly’s Northern Liberties, talking with muralist extraordinaire, Betsy Casañas, about the possibility of doing a solo show at her gallery. I had my portfolio with me to…

    Water fight! It’s a hot and muggy July day. Here’s a #throwbackthursday shot to help conjure cooling thoughts. I shot this in Ecuador about six years ago. My camera was lucky to escape the wet melee unscathed.

  5. Do the Right Thing…

    This is a story about a spur of the moment idea that evolved into something beyond my original intent. It started this time last year when my good friend, Puck, threw an additional wedding ceremony and party here in the States for those of us who were unable to make…

  6. Cancer Crusher

    Sometimes it seems the world is hell-bent to jade us at every turn—self-serving politicians, senseless violence, rising prices, static wages, climate change…. But occasionally, the status quo is overshadowed with sources of untainted inspiration—much like the proverbial flower pushing through the cracks of a city sidewalk. Such inspiration might seem…

  7. Quality Time

    2014-08-13 18:22:18 UTC
    Once again, I am extremely thankful for my iPhone’s amazing capacities. I took my daughter out fishing at dawn a couple weeks ago at Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania. We were awed by the mist and stillness of the lake, and became even more inspired as the sun peaked…
