My first assignment for the New York Times was this portrait of Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios. He is perhaps the most powerful comic-book geek in the movie business today. I always want to make great pictures, regardless of how big or small the publication or story. My hands were tied a bit on this one, as everything on set of The Avengers is top secret, so I can’t tell you about the big movie stars I met or how the movie ends. While I do like this picture, it was a bit frustrating because there were so many amazing places around the sets that would have been great if we could have gotten clearance to make a picture around it. All that is just to say, I want to get another chance to shoot for The Times and show them what I can do if I’m allowed to sink my teeth into an assignment. Thanks to Robert for getting the screen photo when the picture was on the Times home page in the early hours.

Drought at Twin Lakes for The Communicator






New Mexico has finally been getting rain showers over the past few days, the first real rain of the year. At Twin Lakes private club in Santa Rosa NM, locals say the water level has gone down over previous summers. The evidence is not hard to see along the shoreline. I made this series of pictures of the Lucero family on assignment for the Guadalupe County Communicator, not too bad considering I didn’t know what I might be photographing when I arrived in town that day.
My thanks to Dolores, Lorenzo, Xavier, Nastasia and Maddox.
Welcome Drew Jackson
I’m a bit late getting these photos posted, but I wanted to welcome my new friend Drew Reid Jackson into the world. Born June 3rd, Drew has a brilliant older brother named Coen and wonderful parents in Dale and Eva, so I think he has a great start in life. Dale and I have been friends for more years than I can really remember, as we weren’t too much older than Coen when we started playing soccer together. I hope he is as fortunate as we were to find such good friends so early in life. More photos of Drew and the family on my archive.
*I’m totally done here*
Portrait of one of my favorite non-neice kids, Rea Sandoval, photographed on the smokey West Mesa of Albuquerque, or as the young star described it to her mother: “Some junk place”
There are some additional pics on my archive.
