Friday favorites

My co-worker Brittany and I spent Wednesday covering the funerals of two teenage boys who lost their lives in an oil tank explosion over the weekend. Her story is beautifully written and heartbreaking.

My co-worker and fellow photog Matt was featured on Wall Street Journal Photos of the Day with an image from Monday night’s Saints game. Yay, Matt!

My friend Elizabeth shared an article on connecting with kids from behind the camera. An interesting read and some good advice for those of you who snap a lot of portraits.

One of my favorite photojournalists, James Nachtwey, spoke at Photoplus last week about the impact of images. I wish I could have been there to hear him and see the images.

NYT staff photographer Michelle Agins talks about documenting poverty for the annual New York Times Neediest Cases Fund and how it has impacted her life. I love what she says. Definitely play the multimedia piece, y’all.

Happy Friday!

    Elizabeth - Whoa–for like a split second I thought you meant that I wrote that article-hah! Obviously my brain slows down a little when it gets this late. I'm bookmarking all of these links to check out tomorrow, when I'm more awake.ReplyCancel
