Garden in Transit

Currently in NYC, there's this really cool public art project going on called Garden in Transit. It's part of Portraits of Hope and involves decorating the hood and trunk of taxis in NYC with flower decals painted by kids in schools and hospitals throughout the area. On Sunday, I volunteered with my friend Traci to help put the decals on the cars. We were out at the taxi holding area at JFK airport which was in and of itself an adventure. I really love the cause and am proud to have been part of this project. Plus, it makes the taxis so happy!

This cab driver wanted to choose his decals.



This guy was a professional decal applier from Houston. Fascinating.



All pretty now!



This was in the holding area where the flowers really stood out.

My First Wedding Assist

In my journey to become a professional photographer, I have started to assist for a wonderful wedding photographer named Jocelyn. She has blessed me with the most amazing forum to learn (trial by fire really) and the patience to teach me (cheat sheets and everything!). As the second shooter, I get to do a lot of the details. Here are just a few selects from my very first wedding assist.

Headed downstairs to shoot the bouquets, I was captured by the contrast of not only the white fabric and dark wood, but also the gentle curves with the rigid lines.



A traditional shot, but I like it.



I was left behind in the preparation room to battle the insanely contrasty light, while Jocelyn prepared for the party to come down the aisle. I didn't get much, but I liked this one.
