Portrait of a Musician

In: Commercial/Editorial, Headshots, Portraiture

I love the variety in my work – from the subject matter I get to shoot, to the wonderful couples I get to celebrate with at weddings, to the talented artists with which I get to create. I recently had a second opportunity to shoot with drummer/percussionist/songwriter Ryan Schiedermayer.  Ryan is a member and co-leader of Streetlife, the award-winning Milwaukee Bucks house band, and he tours nationally and abroad with several other bands.  We had originally worked together when I did some cover art and head shots for the band Solset in 2007.  A couple of these images Ryan also used in the back exterior and interior disk case design for Sentido, a new albumRead More →

Last week I shot some work for a designer, an old coworker of mine, a Senior Art Director when we were at RTCRM. You can see more of Evy’s work at Evy Lui Creative. She is freelancing now, but I would take her with me to every place I worked if I could. She is an uber hard worker, extremely organized, timely, strategic and overall creative. I shot Evy’s work on this piece in my kitchen (believe it or not) and used the glossy paint, white walls to bounce soft light into the frame. I have some more small table top work with a fantastic invitation designer coming soon…Read More →

At long last, the lemon video is complete. Refer to the March 21st post “We help you share it with the world” to read more on the background of this fun and inventive internal assignment intended to get ITS teams thinking about how they help forward the department’s mission to bettering education through technology. I mean really, are you supposed to be having this much fun at work?! I have several other shoots, both with CPS and Stephanie Book Photography, to post within the month. So, stay tuned for more frequent posts as we head into the busy summer season.Read More →

We help you share it with the world

This week my CPS/ITS coworkers and I took on an assignment handed down to each service team in the ITS department. The intent of the project is more or less to get teams thinking creatively about communication and refine the messages they send about the services they offer, for this project and looking forward. It’s likely these ads won’t see light outside this internal meeting, but it is a good way to get teams thinking, being creative and having fun. The assignment: to create an ad for our services. The parameters were wide open as to how your ad is created and presented. The only stipulation is thatRead More →

Serving students and technology

The past several weeks I have been spending time at several schools in Chicago photographing students using technology in the classroom and teachers innovatively incorporating technology into their lessons. The schools have been very accommodating. These opportunities have been fun, and I am impressed with the concentration of the students. As unobtrusive as I aim to be when I enter these classroom, I do at times feel like the elephant in the room. But they seem to work right through my presence and allow me to become the fly on the wall. These visits have also been enlightening as to the challenges teachers and administrators face inRead More →

Finding my Balance at the new gig

I am often juggling several projects or jobs at the same time, as they exercise different parts of my creative drive. Occasionally, the opportunity strikes for me to merge these interests. I currently have my photography work, an independent documentary film project, and just recently I began a new daytime gig at Chicago Public Schools in the Information & Technology Services department as a Marketing/Communication Specialist. This new opportunity has been fantastic, enabling me to shoot regularly and create communications that help the schools educate children. This week, at my daytime gig, I did a photo shoot for a marketing campaign encouraging those in theRead More →
