Okay, so I've been busy. And I know, it's an excuse everyone uses.
But KTLA keeps giving me plenty of hours. And I've been working on a volunteer photo project for the local community theater. And I've been shooting for a photo agency. AND I've been editing down and fixing the 3000+ frames from the RIAS trip to Germany, Czech Republic and Belgium.
But I'm done shooting for the theater and now editing.
And I'm no longer shooting for the agency. Yelling at celebraties was just not my idea of fun. It was not paparazzi work, but the paps were always lurking in the shadows. I've spent my entire career trying to get people to ignore me while I get photos to tell their story, so yelling at stars to look straight into my lens was a huge change in the way I work. And there is no story telling involved with red carpet work. It was just not what I want to do.
The owner of the agncy never spoke to me directly until he sent a note saying that he liked my work and should I change my mind, his door would always be open. So I must have done something right.
So here's some snaps from a few red carpets, with photos of the theater project coming soon.
I'm going to try to post more often (my resolution for the new year was to post weekly. The year ain't over yet...)

| Steven Tyler at the NBA All-Star game red carpet. And why to sporting events need a red carpet? |

| Uma Thurman at my last red carpet, for the premiere of her movie Ceremony. |
 |
| Maria Menounos at the NBA All-Star game red carpet... and when did sporting events require red carpets? |
