-And on the road in Montgomery, Alabama, shooting the Alabama Sweet Tea Co. for Magnolia magazine.

This is the set up for one of the shots. 

The flag is a 14’x 27’ hand-stitched flag, made in 1920 and flown on a WWI Navy Ship based out of Mayne Island in California.

Tank cars at Tilford Yard.

New friends, new experiences, new places, new adventures.

We are rolling up the rugs, spinning the records, and ringing in the New Year. Loud! 

As James Brown says, “get up offa that thing and dance till you feel better!” 

Thanks to all the stylists, designers, photo editors, and everyone who let us into their beautiful homes and lives to photograph and film them. 

Special thanks to the crew at PPR in Atlanta.

Cheers!

On the road, on assignment, and checking into another hotel; all part of our glamorous life.

And while there is something to be said for the hallway carpeting, we’re just not sure what it is.

The leaves are falling, the temperatures are plunging, and the hours of light get shorter every day.

But it’s not over yet- the calendar says we’ve still got more shots to get.

So let’s go!

On the newsstands now, the Winter 2016 issue of Atlanta Magazine’s HOME.

Here’s a photo from one of two photo spreads we shot for this issue.  It’s  from the home of Interior Designer/Blogger Sherry Hart, a view of her Sitting Room. 

Check out her ”Design Indulgence“ blog- it’s bold, sassy and insightful, it’s Sherry!

You may have noticed that we no longer have a presence on certain social media platforms. 

In an effort to more fully concentrate on various creative endeavors, maintain equilibrium and sanity, and push past the deafening online noise, we have pulled the plug on FaceBook and Twitter.

And honestly, it feels so good.

We are still on Instagram and will continue to post our comings/goings here on the A-M blog.

Onward.

Great shoot- great crew.

Thanks to stylist Anna Forkum (blue Cons on left) for pumpkin wrangling, leaf management, and keen eye; to Assistant Art Director Lori Sturdivant at BH&G/SIM (white Cons on right) for guidance and vision (and dinner at Patti’s- we’ll tell you about if you want…and you should), and Kari Anne and her family at Thistlewood Farm for allowing us into their amazing home.

And we are wrapped in Kentucky.

On the road, on assignment, somewhere out in Kentucky.

Current temperature 32° 

Frost advisory in effect.

Bundle up buttercup.

In the hotel, in Grand Rivers, Kentucky, on assignment, with stylist Anna Forkum, watching the election results…

122 N Elm St Greensboro NC - 10/24/16

On assignment- on the road- we’ve been covering some ground.

From North Carolina to Tennessee and all points in-between.

The shot above is from an assignment for Where Traveler: The Beltline.

Yes. Even Atlanta.

On assignment and on the road, it’s another job, another hotel, and another location.

And when it looks like this, nothing beats working.

Great shoot and great crew in Wrightsville Beach, NC.

Thanks Rick and Michael- InSidesign.

The crew from Atlanta Magazine’s HOME shoot at Sherry Hart’s home for the Winter 2016 issue.

Great shoot today.

And what else can we say but, that’s a wrap!

Laboring on Labor Day. 

We are with the incredible Insidesign team Michael Matascik and Rick Anthony Bonner.

Bambino!

There are no easy words to capture the complexities of Howard Finster’s Paradise Gardens.

We will not even try; instead we’ll just offer one random glimpse.

This is a shot inside The Mirror House.

With Rick Anthony Bonner and Michael Matascik of InsiDesign getting the shots today.

Quick minds all on the same track; nothing beats skill and experience.

Except maybe being able to enjoy what you’re doing.

And we do that.

Going through 1000’s of film transparencies- sorting, saving, jettisoning.

Years and years of stock work and assignments and personal projects.

And it’s been great to go back; a retrospective viewing as it were.

So many images, so many memories…

This one is a keeper.

… and watch the light play across the water.

Have a groovy weekend ya’ll.
