Candace in New York

Posted on November 3, 2009 by Candace

I returned from NYC one week ago.  My shows and meetings went great and the best part was connecting with old friends. Many parties and events added to the perfect road trip. The Lucie Awards were more fabulous than ever this year as well as the Atedge event.  The PDN bash was a very different party but we all had a good time revisiting with old and new friends. Taking photos with a new acquaintance was quite entertaining. Soon I will tell you about my ping pong adventure.  I LOVE New York City and need a fix after a couple months of being away.

Santa Fe Photographic Workshop in MX

Posted on September 30, 2009 by Candace

Coming up at the end of October Paul Elledge and Leasha Overturf are teaching a week long workshop on Contemporary Black-and-White Portraits in San Miguel De Allende, MX.

This is a workshop for accomplished photographers who are ready for the challenge of overcoming the limited nature of traditional portraiture. To create dynamic portraits, Paul and Leasha encourage participants to avoid photographic clichés and discover new ways of seeing that come from one’s imagination. We discuss issues such as instinct, self-confidence, and trust in the creative process, as well as methods for collaborating with clients and subjects, handling difficult personalities, and working effectively under pressure. Get more info here.

Family View

featuring Paul Elledge, Leasha Overturf & Jo-Nell Sieren

What is family?

The answer can be comforting to some, and terrifying to others. For most of us the answer lies somewhere in-between those two extremes, and that’s where things just begin to get interesting.

Join us in welcoming Paul Elledge, Leasha Overturf and Jo-Nell Sieren to the Family Room Gallery this September as they individually answer this seemingly simple, straightforward question through a common medium of photography in “Family View.”

Nathaniel Welch Shoots ESPN Cover

Posted on August 31, 2009 by Candace

ESPN magazine is without a doubt one of my favorite mags to shoot for. In this biz, when you get a call for an assignment from a magazine, you usually want to hear about it before saying yes, so you don’t get roped into something you don’t really want to do. Not the case when I get a call from ESPN. Whenever I get a call from them for a shoot, the answer is always yes.

Doesn’t matter what it is, I always know I want to do it. I’ve Never said no to anything that they have offered up. Not only are athletes one of my favorite subjects to shoot, but the magazine itself: the photography editing, the design and photography treatment, and the reporting, are the best in the magazine business. I don’t think anyone in the mag biz would argue otherwise. When I think back to all of the shoots for all the different magazines I’ve done over the years, a lot of my personal faves were for ESPN………
