Shot these portraits for a special section dedicated to 9/11. The paper had readers submit their own stories from not only that day, but also how that day affected their lives forever, and they chose a few to publish as is. Katelyn, who was 9 years old on 9/11, wrote a very personal piece about her brother who was killed by an IED in Iraq a few years ago. The pendant she wears around her neck has his ashes inside.

Another 9/11 portrait. Vikkie is originally from England where she experienced terrorism first hand dealing with IRA bombings in London. She lived and worked in Manhattan on 9/11 and witnessed the attacks. A decade later she finally speaks about the attacks and the emotional impact they had on her.

This was from before the start of the football season. At the last practice I think. Anyway, the sports desk asked me to try and get a portrait of the Higgins brothers after the practice. Thanks for looking.

So I couldn’t decide if I liked the black and white version or the color version best. The tie breaker was that there have been a lot of color photos on the blog lately and even more waiting in the archive for me to post. So there it is, my justification for posting the black and white over the color. Although, I must admit the color version carries a lot more storytelling elements because of the American flag draped behind the boy as well as the hat pops off the shirt a bit more. Also the quality of light was pretty nice on the boy’s face. Shit maybe I SHOULD post the color one. AAAAAARRRRGGGGGGHHHH. You know, just for the record, I am an indecisive person by nature so this is driving me crazy. I’ll tell you what, why don’t you click on the photo and you can see the color version of the photo and we will just have a vote. So if you are reading this post and looking at these photographs you have thereby entered into a contract with the administration of this blog to give your honest, unabashed opinion, etc. in the comment area. You will not be compensated, because lets face it, I am a journalist therefore I’m broke.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

So I have been at the Standard-Examiner now for two weeks and have yet to update. So here is the first update. I didn’t want to publish everything that I shot or even everything that made it into the paper, but just some of the ones I liked.
