Our short documentary film WE FARM GEORGIA with Gabby Montoya is an Official Selection in the 2016 Film For (A Better) Future Festival.
It will screen this Saturday, May 7th at The Pinch ‘n’ Ouch Theatre in Atlanta.
Been a long week of farms, motels, miles, and more miles.
Met some beautiful people, ate some great food, and along the way gathered some incredible footage and interviews.
While traveling the backroads between locations we came across this farm.
Looks to be a great year for marshmallows.
At multiple locations filming this week and covering some serious miles.
So hang on- it’s going to get wild.
It’s all how you look at it.
Walk?- or take the moving sidewalk.

Driving on 328 East in South Carolina, somewhere between Saluda and Lexington, heading to the film festival in Columbia.
We had been stopping and grabbing shots as we went: beautiful ruins, roadside unattractions, a mural, anything and nothing- but this scene really blew us away.
This photo is unprocessed from the RAW file: no curve, no saturation adjustment- nada.
It is as we saw it.
On the road and headed to Columbia, SC for the Indie Grits Film Festival.
Our documentary The BUGG FARM screens tonight at 7pm. Posted is a screen grab of Addis Bugg from the film.

We’re pleased to announce that our documentary short “The BUGG FARM” is an official selection at the 2016 Indie Grits Film Festival in Columbia, South Carolina.
The Bugg Farm is a tribute to the heritage of strong black farmers who have managed to survive and keep the land in the family for future generations. The farm, which originally comprised over one thousand acres was owned by T.J. Bugg, a former slave who was given the land by the owner of the plantation on which he had toiled. Following in the footsteps of his ancestors, Addis Bugg, the great, great, great grandson of T.J. Bugg has recently returned to the family farm in Georgia to carry on the farm’s legacy and become the 6th generation to farm the land.
Screens April 16th, 2016 at 7pm in the Nickelodeon Theatre in Columbia, SC

#fineartphotography, #tulip
We spend a good part of the year on the road on photo assignments and film projects, and as can be expected, in hotels.
The glamorous world of being photographers can turn into a disorienting nightmare after awhile when the hotels and their rooms (except for the carpets in the hallways- more on that in a later post…) all look the same.
