On Saturday, I had two assignments for the AJC. This was the first. Actress Mo’Nique was being recognized by the Atlanta Urban League with their Lifetime Achievement Award in a ceremony at the Mariott Marquis hotel. Mo’Nique, 42, choked up quite a bit at the realization that she still had much of her life to [...]
Friday evening the AJC had me shoot a group of students from the Whitefield Academy who were doing something called, “Prom With a Purpose.” The alternative style prom’s goal was to save as much money as possible by not going to fancy restaurants, renting limo’s or holding the event at a nice venue so that [...]
About two years ago I wrapped up my time working for The Red & Black, the student newspaper at UGA. In honor of that, and considering most of these photos never appeared more than 400px across on my website, I figured I would take a step back and show some of my favorite photos from [...]

Another food photo, this time from Red Sky Cafe in Buford. Used window light exclusively for this one. The Reuben.
Welcome to the first installment of my Photos of the year: 2008 Edition posts. This one is dedicated to illustrations. Illustrations are staged photos that show a product (usually food), idea, or issue. The top photo gets my honorable mention while the ones below the jump are the top 5. Honorable Mention: A shrimp cocktail [...]
Shot a restaurant called Rico’s World Kitchen in Buford earlier this week. It’s a small little place near the mall of Georgia, but the style of restaurant the owners were going for is awesome. They basically want to provide high style food for pretty reasonable prices, sub $10 per item basically. They brought out a [...]
