You Are Here with Naomi Hummel

I recently photographed the production of a new short film called You are Here being put together by Naomi Hummel. This film illuminates and personalizes the consequences of our stubborn investment in an oil-based economy. Through the focused lens of cinema, theatrical dance and aerial acrobatics, YOU ARE HERE tells a tragic love story between the ocean and humankind, uniting the fury, grace and love of artists from multiple disciplines to pull focus back to the unfolding situation in the Gulf and continue the conscious dialog about humankind’s relationship to oil.

Film Director- Ben Rapson of Breathing Media
Cast- Naomi Hummel (actor, dancer, aerialist), Ryan Barret (actor, dancer, choreographer)

Here are some of the production stills:

 

On a sadder note

I got a lot of exposure this year through Orchestra Seattle and the Seattle Chamber Singers. Unfortunately, this was due to the untimely death of conductor George Shangrow in an automobile accident this past summer. This was a tremendous loss. George was an amazing person/personality. Well loved throughout the music industry. This is the poster for a recent performance...

Cabiri Halloween Performance

Here is a poster I photographed for the Cabiri. It was taken underwater in a swimming pool in West Seattle. We had 5 or 6 people in the pool--photographer, models, and a safety diver with air tanks.

Recent Work

Yes, I know. It has been months since I've posted here. Life has been busy. So, it is time to show some recent work. Here are two photographs for Cafe Nordo in Seattle that are running on their website and in a lot of local press and blogs. Would've been nice to have photo credits, but somehow they always get lost...
Here, in the first photo, we see, from left to right, Ray Tagavilla, Opal Peachy, Billie Wildrick and Mark Siano.
