Current Assignments: 

The triptych  image above is from a series of portraits I had taken on assignment for a realty show
to air some time in the future on the Learning Channel ( you know how these things go. ) The series inspired me to begin a project entitle " skilled workers." Not sure where it is going to go but as soon as I get enough portraits I will set up a blog.

Some of the projects that have been commissioned   in May have been pushed to June, go figure. I did manage to secure some assignments in May
Harshalom fundraiser 
  Fundraiser for Har Shalom
The above image was commissioned by the  local Temple,Har Shalom. The concept was to show the generations of Jewish families that have settled in Missoula. The three generations of Chessins' illustrated that point.

I had gotten a call from Pamela who was graduating from grad school. She was applying for a job in Chile and needed a professional head shot to send them ASAP. This was the first studio shoot at my new home location and I am happy to say it all worked out.
After the session we downloaded the images, edited our picks, retouched and burned a CD for Pamela to take home with her.

Steven Begleiter Spring in the Rockies is inspiring. A friend took me on a treasure hunt in the mountains to search for Wild Calypso Orchids,  also known as fairy slippers. About an hour into our climb we came across a bunch.

The rest of the hike was also magical, photographing lilies, pine drops, yellow glacier flowers and the beautiful morning light.  

 

Am I becoming a nature photographer? 

In truth I have always been one. It is all about light, form, composition and being inspired, regardless of the subject matter.   

 

On other fronts, since I last wrote, May has been the  month for class photos, donations and  commercial shoots.  


Thanks for taking the time to read about my Spring adventure. I hope you will also find the time to get out and explore and enjoy the summer.
