Multimedia Workshop @ New Ro Library
Six weeks have gone by so quickly. Teaching children is the most rewarding thing in the world. It is also the hardest thing. Just learning how to deal with different personalities and getting everyone on board with the lesson plan is a challenge. Nonetheless a challenge I was up for. It started with class on [...]
The new Canon 7D
I bought the canon 7d. It is a great little camera for the right price. I wanted to move to HD. This little camera packs a punch with a small price tag and being in SLR body. I hoping the learning curve isn’t too BIG. There is a lot to learn like compressing the files [...]
Retouching…
Retouching is such a touchy subject. As a photographer who works primarly for newspapers, I am not allowed to retouch images. I can do small amounts of color correcting, croping and toning. I feel like you can use lighting and angles to enhance a person without completely changing who they are.
Now I will admit in [...]
Trouble don’t last always
Wow, a lot has happen over the past couple of weeks. We (staff @TJN) new that there was going to be some restructuring going to happen at our paper. We just didn’t know what was going to happen. Things have been on shaky ground for the newspaper people. I have gone through countless rounds [...]

Recession Package
The package that I have been working on for the past three months with my fellow photog ran this Sunday. Working on a project can be quite daunting task. There is so much to be mindful of when you are working on something for a period of time. Is it still relevant because the amount [...]
Inauguration Day continues…
Everyone wants more images and to hear my story about inauguration day. Two days later… I don’t want to disappoint, but I feel like I didn’t have the same experience as everyone else. I didn’t witness the inauguration. However, what I witness and document was people experiencing the inauguration.
I was running from spot to spot [...]

On the bus home from DC. Barack is official. He is the President
Hi..I am tired as hell sitting on the bus back to New York. I am coming back from Washington, covering the inauguration of Barack Obama as the 44th president. Cold and tired are two words that became very familiar to me. I don’t know where to start… how about I was the lost [...]
