I just finished reading Dorothea Lange: A Life Beyond Limits by Linda Gordan and got pretty excited about the photographer-writer team that was Dorothea and her husband Paul. Collaboration baby! I suggest you read it. Linda Gordan is a history professor at NYU and takes an academic route in her writing, analyzing events, stating information where primary documents are scarce, which isn’t always the case in biographies.
At the end of the book they mention a grant set up in their names for a writer-photographer team. I’m a fan of collaboration and the cohesion that exists in a piece when information is shared and stories are worked on together.

As always, he was a ramblin’ man, heading home, meeting Ozzy and hanging out with furries. When are you going on your road trip Will?

They say a good photographer never shares his/her contact sheets. Let’s just say that “Digital Contact Sheet” is a nonrandom sample geared toward the interesting, and will happen again whenever I deem a raw series of photos worth sharing for educational or entertainment purposes.

Jackie didn’t get around much in February, probably because of what you people outside of Southern California call weather. I’m sure she has her reasons, but feel free to shame her into taking more photos this month.

Here is my producing debut. I shot the video on my 5d mark II and then edited it on Final Cut Pro. I only had a 4 gig card, severely limiting what I could shoot, so please excuse the lack of b-roll.
