Jennifer gets published in “Philadelphia Lawyer” magazine!

Jennifer snapped some photos at a family gathering in Rhode Island last summer, and lo and behold someone at the party wrote an article about it for the “Philadelphia Lawyer” magazine! Her photo is the full page one that starts the article. Head on over to www.philadelphiabar.org and scroll down to “Clam Bake” to download the whole article. Apparently the key to the whole thing is seaweed.

Mom/Son collaboration

I’m proud to announce that a photograph of mine is a “distinguished finalist” in a contest! My mom (Jeanne Wilkinson) and I collaborated on some art photographs on a trip we took out west, and one of those photos finished in the top 20 in a contest on www.myartspace.com. It is now showing along with some other photos from the series (which we call “Painted People: Western Walkabout”) in the NYAXE Gallery in Palo Alto, CA. Yay for art!



This is our winning photo, “River Crossing”. My mom takes found dolls, usually Barbie dolls or G.I. Joe dolls, and paints them and then photographs them in various scenarios and mixes things up in Photoshop. I'm more into the un-manipulated image kind of thing, so this series is basically straight out of the camera. She and I drove from Denver to San Francisco, retracing the route she had taken in a VW Bus when she was nineteen. We sort of followed these “Painted People” across the west, from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific. It was way fun!




“Fiery Furnace”, in Arches National Park.




“Sand Mountain”, this totally crazy gigantic dune in Nevada.




“Ocean Overlook”, just north of San Francisco. They made it!

Quince and Apple: Contemporary Boutique Preserves

Our friends Clare and Matt run an awesome “contemporary boutique preserves” company called Quince and Apple, and they needed some promo shots for their holiday gift baskets, so they gave us a call. It’s not our normal gig, product photography, but we had fun doing it!



Here is Clare in front of the totally wild studio setup!
















Check out their website for some tasty jams! They have some never-before-seen flavors like “Shallot Confit with Red Wine” and “Pear with Honey and Ginger”. Mmmmm! But don’t go there expecting to taste quince preserves—that’s just the company name, please!
