I was asked to contribute to Spring 2007 issue of Photo Media Magazine, for their "Shot in the Back" section. We talked about various images [PBR Buttcrack almost made it] and chose this image, shot for the 2005/2006 Oregon Ballet Theatre campaign. I really like this image - it's got a great location, punchy lighting, a story and a fantastic moment for the dancers. To see this season's work in action you can head over to OBT.org. I'm also please to announce that I will be showing 15 fine art prints from my OBT-Backstage series, here in Portland. For April they will be at the B-Street Gallery as part of a group show put on by the Pointe Society, and then for May it will be a solo exhibit at the Art Bar.
And yes, of course the work is for sale - the prints are beautiful 13" x 20" archival epson prints, on one of my favorite papers–Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl–and were printed by the fine craftsmen over at Pushdot Studio.

FEED Update: I illustrated a short story for a good friend, and it's now live on the web - Go read Closet of Love, by Dylan Lee, and check out my lightbulb photo! (Secret Technique: I photographed the lightbulb on a wall - so much easier)
