Bob’s photo of Game Drive, Jeanne Ruddy’s newest work, was with Ellen Dunkel’s article in The Philadelphia Inquirer this Sunday. Thank you Nina.

Jeane Ruddy Dancers

Ibanez unveiled their 25th anniversary guitars at the NAMM Show this month. We shot video for the web.

Tama has entered the Marching Band world with a new line. Product arrived today to video spinning drums.

New line of Tama Drums

Dancers are one of my favorite subjects to photograph. Shooting video makes it that much more so. This was for Jeanne Ruddy Dance’s celebration of 12 years collaboration with costume Designer, Jeffrey Wirsing—Parade, Dance, Costumes and Fashion Meet.

Wednesday we were on location, shooting material for a project on a beautiful sunny, breezy fall day. These covered bridges are such graphic structures (inside and out) and, tracking them down takes one down back roads that we never would have taken otherwise.

Photographing PA Covered Bridges

All part of the same job—first groups of motors, then individual shots of motors, now beauty shot of all motors. Began before our move, during our move and after our move!

This shot is an update of our original shot with current new motors. Once shot we will digitally combine it with other images for the final result. (Will post here when finished.—Check back!)

Love Working in our new Table Top Studio.

Studio Interview

Doing more and more video. There is nothing better to show a product finish that has visual activity, than seeing it moving.
Here a small selection of some finishes on a new range of Tama drums presented at the recent winter NAMM show.
