Sparrow Waits: Alive!

I'm very excited to announce Sparrow Waits have just unveiled their new look with the images I shot last week! You can find them at http://www.etsy.com/shop/SparrowWaits. If you have the time, please check out their shop. Emily and Liz are great folks, so please support them and support small business! Here are a few more of my favorites from the shoot. Ah, I love it when a plan comes together!

A Sparrow Waits Preview

Recently I had the great privilege to shoot the product line for Sparrow Waits. They are a small company (Em and Liz!) who design and sew aprons, pot holders, and pin cushion owls and sell them on www.etsy.com/shop/SparrowWaits. I definitely recommend checking them out there, especially after we've updated all of their imagery! Here is just a quick sneak peek. All I can say is, look out Etsy, Sparrow Waits is coming for ya!

Parking Lot Dead Ends and The Image as Metaphor

There is a lot of talk in certain circles about the image as metaphor, but the story behind these images work as a kind of metaphor for life in itself. I was driving in my car headed home taking the usual way, but I decided to take a different route, so I turned left and found myself lost in one of those giant parking lots, you know the ones which 18 ginormous box stores share. Anyways, I eventually wound up at a dead end. I stopped, got out of the car, and started taking pictures of the tire tracks left behind in the snow. Then I climbed back in the car and finally made it back home a week later...or maybe an hour. There's a metaphor and a moral in that story somewhere, but I think the images do the trick best. Also, I found this helpful...if these images made sounds, they would probably sound like this.
