The Mountain Kingdom

I traveled with World Vision last month to shoot in Lesotho. The mountain kingdom has a great deal of cool looking people and amazingly rugged landscape. I shot a lot of photographs. Here are eight of them…

Used a Nikon F5 (loved it) and had a great time–would accept another assignment there for sure! See more stuff from that shoot.

The Football Tour

On assignment for Athletes in Action, I have just wrapped extensive shooting in Spain, France and Italy. The focus was interviewing five soccer stars for a movie that will be used surrounding the 2010 World Cup. Along the way, I took a few shots of the surrounding landscapes, all on film using my trusty little Nikon N80.

Burn Boy Redux

Okay, so I thought there were a lot of do gooders out there who would jump at a chance to help a real live kid in Africa who so obviously needs it. But so far only one cool girl from Mizzou has bothered to step it up. Come on people. This isn’t a joke. This kids needs some help. So tell you what. I’ll pony up 5oo bucks to kick this off but only if five people match it. We need 3K to solve this. Who’s in?
