When the paper sent Lauren and me to State College two Fridays ago, it wasn’t just to cover the candlelight vigil and the season’s last home game/first game without Joe Paterno. Lauren is a business reporter, so as soon as we arrived in State College, we started working on a biz story: (How) have the [...]

Analog/Wedding: Erin and Scott
Posted in Analog, Travel, Weddings on November 4, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Erin and Scott are two nerds who got hitched in Erin’s parents’ backyard in mid-September. Jeff, a few Missouri photojournalism alumnae and I attended. Naturally, we all brought our cameras. Naturally, I brought my Mamiya. It was a small, lovely wedding. Thanks for sharing your lovely day with me, Erin and Scott!
Analog: Hanover Chili Cookoff

A decent hour-long, winding drive from my apartment, Hanover is home to Snyder’s of Hanover and the Hanover Chili Cookoff. (It’s home to other things, too… like news editor Kate. Not to be confused with photographer Kate.) News editor Kate, photographer Kate and I met at the 16th annual Hanover Chili Cookoff last month for [...]

This is the last of the New York City blog posts (from my three-day trip in July), and boy, it was a long time coming. I’d shot Times Square at f/1.4, then switched back to a more functional aperture, then switched back to f/1.4 for a few more shots in Chinatown. Here they are.

If you know anything about me, you know that I love a good Chinatown. Strangely, so does my mom. I guess it runs in the family. My Uncle Doug is a living, breathing Urbanspoon, so we always refer to him when we want to know where we should eat for various types of cuisine in [...]
NYC (VIII): Times Square at f/1.4

I’m not sure why, but when we were in Times Square on Tuesday morning, I decided to open my lens up all the way. f/1.4, baby. Unfortunately — and I did already know this — the Canon 50/1.4 lens is not sharp at f/1.4. I usually shoot it at f/2.8, at which the sharpness is [...]
