The Poster Project Winning Posters

I also wanted to share the 10 winning posters that were selected by our amazing judges for The Poster Project for Nepal.

Winning designers stretched from San Francisco to Slovenia!!
We were so happy with the incredible work of these student designers!

All proceeds will go to support education in Nepal for Kids of Kathmandu!

Colorado Part 1-Photo Opening

Attended the opening for the 'Blue' show at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Ft. Collins, Colorado where I had 2 pieces in the show, one that received Director's Honorable Mention.

It was a great show. I thought they curated a great collection. And I was honored to be part of it.

And I met a handful of amazing fellow photographers that also travelled to the show. Alec Von Bargen came in Mexico, Patricia Clarke from Santa Barbara, and Gabi Helfert from Rotterdam! Hamidah Glasgow, the Director at the Center took us to dinner afterwards. I will never get sick of sitting around a table with photographers and talking about the work, our work, their work, other work, the thoughts behind it all, why we do it, why we dont do it, why we do that instead of this, and why we do this instead of that. I love it!

And a pic of my super supportive husband who was looking quite cute at the show if I might add.

Recap 2008 #5

"Come and Go"

An image made with my brother and my best friend.

We lived down the street from each other in Brooklyn.

We saw each other a zillion times a day and talked even more.

Then, as actors do, he moved to LA.

This image was taken the night before he moved.

His room was empty.

And we processed the move as siblings 

that are photographers

and actors

do

He felt it out

I shot pictures

We said nothing

We shed tears

And we created something real

to each of us

forever

Come and Go won the 2008 First Prize from ASMP (American Society of Media Photographers) 

Recap 2008 #8

I dig JPG magazine

And not just because they have been good to me

But for their endless pursuits

to provide avenues for exposure

for the fact that they are about images 

images

and more 

images

I entered Baby Room, Ohio in contest 21 on "Chairs"

And it was 1 of 8 images selected for their blog here and here

I LOVE chairs!

More images from the series "I was here but now I'm gone"
