GDUSA Packaging Design Award

I love finding out that a project I worked on got an award- a GDUSA award no less. Lighthouse is a fantastic brand that is owned by it's employees so they were very careful about choosing their photo team on their talented ad agency's recommendation.  I am so happy they did! They have been so lovely to work with and so appreciative of all the work that my team puts into each shoot. Our style of shooting with natural light was a perfect fit for their products which they take so much personal care in producing each flavor.  

2015 Communication Arts Photo Annual Award

So excited to be awarded a 2015 Communication Arts Photography Annual Award. Communication Arts is a publication that I have always greatly admired and looked at to see top work going on in our industry. I am proud to be a part of the highly competitive Photo Annual this year along with FOUR of my rep Heather Elder's photographers. I am proud of all of us!

Thanks to two fabulously talented stylists Dan Becker and Sara Slavin for their participation on the test shoot that resulted in this photo. It is part of our "autumnal dinner party" series.

Thrilled that Found Folios included me in their "New and Hot" collection!

Recent Awards

Typically I post this kind of thing on Facebook because I can share it quickly. It is important to let people know when you win awards- I just am not great about talking too much about it. Here are two awards I won recently-just so you know.

Photo District News Objects of Desire. I won first place in the food and still life category. My photo was placed at the front of the awards section in the November issue of PDN. The image also appeared in a gallery show during Photo Expo in NYC. Below is my new website landing page that shows the new award alongside last year's Comm Arts award.

Dieline design award. Ok the award was for the whole package design, but the photo is important - right? The babyfood company is an ongoing client of mine. They are great fun to work with - lots of good music playing while we play with some awful pretty fruits and veggies. This work is also exhibiting in a cool new exhibition space adjacent to the Louvre in Paris!  Photos below courtesy of Dieline.
