Jeremy and Emily (New York)

Last week I posted about my good friend Jeremy and our recent collaboration on his film Terrebonne. While in New York over Christmas, Ashley and I had a chance to have dinner with Jeremy and his wife Emily. I brought my Leica M6 & some Neopan 1600 with me and took some pictures of them after dinner in Columbus Circle. These two stood out as my favorites.

The Wingate's (Thanksgiving at Disney)

This year Ashley and I took our boy's to Disney for Thanksgiving with Ashley's family. Our good friends (and A Bryan Photo client!) Bill & Martha Wingate were there at the same time and we set up a family session in Epcot one morning. Here are some of my favorites.





Martha's family was there for a family reunion so I got a chance to photograph her extended family:


I also gave Bill my LOMO (and some Kodak film) for the week so that he could document his time around the parks with his family. I was so happy with Bill's images, I came home and bought the man his own LOMO. I can't wait to see what he captures throughout this year. Here are 3 that he capture in Disney that I loved:

Terrebonne (Part Two)

Terrebonne (Part One)

The above photo is of my life long friend, Jeremy Craig. Jeremy and I went to elementary school together up until the 7th grade when his family moved from Atlanta to Denver. Contrary to the laws of elementary school friendship we actually remained in touch throughout our high school years. Maybe it was the fact that his house in Denver was only an hour away from ski slopes (Loveland Pass) and visiting Jeremy offered a cheap alternative to the typical Daytona Beach spring break. Since high school though we've only seen each other a handful of times. Jeremy has lived in New York with his wife Emily for the last 5 years as Jeremy has pursued writing young adult novels and a film degree at Columbia University. A short film that Jeremy wrote recently won a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and he was able to direct and produce it. The film is called "Terrebonne" and focuses on the relationship of a brother and sister that live in Terrebonne Parish in Southern Louisiana. I was honored when Jeremy asked me to come be the on-set stills photographer for the film. It was incredible working on such an inspiring project and collaborating with an old friend.
Check out the Terrebonne website to read more about the film.
These photos are of my first day shooting, which took place in a barber shop and on some dirt roads.
