People are Beautiful

  People are Beautiful: I don’t think I’ve lived in a place before where people are so comfortable in themselves— you tell them X thing is cool about them & they’re totally fine with letting you snap away. Beauty inside and out. And have I mentioned how great...

Nineteen & In Love: I met this sweet couple as they were skating around all alone holding hands at the ATC Ice Factory. Having a camera all the time is great, since it allows me an excuse to talk to people, give them a photo of a moment in their lives and learn a...

On Parking, Walking & Families in Durham

On Parking, Walking & Families in Durham

  On Parking, Walking & Families in Durham: I’m consistently amazed that we can park so close to the ATC for free (or up till 6pm, right at the ATC). Try that at any other city. There’s sort of a weird tension in Durham. Lots of places to park (once you get...

Defying Gravity

Defying Gravity

Defying Gravity: We LOVE the ATC. Frankly, it was one of the things that struck us about Durham when we were looking for where to relocate our business & family. It’s just so, well, nifty. Like these blocks over the waterway that kids (and adults) thrill to skip...

Peaceful

Peaceful

Peaceful: Is there anything better than walking around the Sarah P. Duke Gardens to relieve stress. This spot is a little out of the way, coming in the recently redone entrance near the parking lot off to the side in the woods. It’s a wonderful little path and makes...

Smiley: As a photographer, it’s a blast to walk around Durham and find these spots. This wall in downtown is already getting ‘historic’ as the new fish mural is now up on this wall and I believe some new construction will be happening here soon?? (I’m new… is that...

Where Am I #1

Where Am I #1

  Where am I? A Durhamite friend suggested these photos would make a great scavenger hunt. Sign me up… that’s a great idea. Just give me a shout and we’ll turn it into a fun event! But till then, I may occasionally post a photo like this one. Where am I in the...

Time

Time

Time: Remember having time just to hang out. Summer, friends, nothing too critical to do… I really enjoy this sort of street photography, where I’m not just sniping photos of people as they zip by, but meeting folks, getting to know them and doing photos with their...

The Bull

The Bull

The Bull! We all love going to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and nothing is better than seeing a home run trigger the outfield Bull, right?? Well, we were assigned to photograph the head of the Bulls, George Habel, and naturally we decided to put the Bull in the...

Duke Chapel: On our first visit to town, we had to go out and see the Sarah P. Duke Gardens and Duke Chapel… Somehow this history of this image make me want to snap it in black and white. As much as I like to shoot in color to have all my options, some times I just...
