Recognize this place from the most recent batman movie? We experienced a taste of Old New York when photographing an event at this exclusive venue. In case you don’t recognize it, the church on the left is St Patricks cathedral. Beautiful!

Four Pulitzer Prize winners in one room

Sun 11.05.2006

I was selected to attend the Eddie Adams Workshop in upstate New York with some of the greatest people in the industry. 50 professionals out of 500 top applicants from 17 countries applied for these sacred spots. Speakers and hands on editors included Directors of Photography at National Geographic, The New York Times, Time, Newsweek, and at least four Pulitzer Prize winning photographers.

It was truly inspiring and intense. Some think of the workshop as a hazing process or boot camp. In total I was allowed about 8 hours of sleep in 4 nights. Eek.

A portion of the workshop is spent out in the field completing an assignment. I was selected to do my story in multimedia and will be posting it soon.

Adventures in Appalachia

Sun 11.05.2006

As I mentioned in a previous blog, I received a scholarship to attend one week workshop photographing in Appalachia. I decided to spend more time in the mountains and rented a car after the workshop ended. I have spent the last two weeks driving around Tennessee, West Virginia, and Virginia. Driving by myself in “the sticks” has been quite an adventure. The second day my car broke down in the middle of nowhere (with no cell phone service I might add) and I had to be towed to the nearest town, which was 1.5 hours away. The whole ordeal took around 5 hours, eek!

Today I went to a Baptist church ceremony in the town of Keystone; lets just say I was the only “white girl” in there. I have also explored coalmines, been invited in many persons homes, and spent a lot of time with the locals. Overall, it has been a great trip and I have created a lot of images I am really excited about.
