Good friend and fellow photographer Claudia Hehr has recently started a campaign on Indiegogo (like Kickstarter, but without the red tape and geographic restrictions) to help fund a social awareness trip to Tanzania.

Claudia is hoping to raise enough money to travel to Tanzania and document the work of the non-profit group Artists For World Peace, whom work with the Good Hope Orphanage Center in the village of Kibosho.

Claudia would like to show to the world the good work that Artists For World Peace is doing for the people of Kibosho, and shoot a portrait series of the orphans.

I spent an afternoon with Anne at her Saxelby Cheesemongers stand in the Essex Street Market, and another at her cheese cave in Red Hook, Brooklyn.

Have a look below at the article (and the table of contents, which also features one of my shots), and follow this link to find an issue for yourself.

You can also read the article online here, which includes an alternate portrait of Anne.

Say cheese!

I’m excited to spread the word about Little Esop’s new site because of their dedication to using 100% organic fabrics to update vintage looks, and because I take all of their pictures for them! Including the product flats!

Head on over to Little Esop and have a look for yourself, and if you have an infant or toddler in your life then you still have a bit of time to get an order in before Christmas. If you don’t, then you can have a look at bit of my commercial kids portfolio.

The Feast of the Seven Fishes is an Italian tradition in which seven different seafood dishes are consumed on Christmas Eve, meant to celebrate the wait for the birth of the baby Jesus, and I was tasked with photographing said fishes (and more) at D. Coluccio & Sons- a third generation Italian market in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn.

Have a look above at the front page (and my page) from the Edible article, and below at a few extra shots from the day, including portraits of the original owner’s grandson (and current manager), Louis Coluccio. Mangia!

Billy still thinks he’s going to be on the cover of a magazine in the big city. Well, at least he made it onto the internet.
