an art fair to end malaria

a new series.
In November, I was asked by the owners of Il Posto if I would be willing to show a few pieces in the restaurant for Denver Arts Week. They loved the pieces so much they asked if they could hang them through the end of the month, to which I gladly agreed.
I hung the work and enjoyed a fantastic dinner to celebrate. Seriously, if you have not had Chef Frizzi’s scallops, you are missing out.
In a few weeks, when I stop by to pick these pieces up, I will be leaving a new series behind, and will continue to do so throughout 2010. When the pieces are hung, I will announce the new series, so stay tuned. In the meantime, grab a few friends and head down for lunch or dinner!

It's great to be back in Denver
This week has been a blast. The display at Il Posto has been extended through the end of the month, we raised over $1000 for Ezra in the Convergence show, and I had the fortune of shooting three super cool families.
Tonight, I’ll be shooting and awards banquet for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which is sure to be a blast.
I’ve extended my stay in Denver for a few more days, so if you’re interested in booking a shoot, please get in touch with me.

I originally discovered my passion for photography while filling my art credits in college, so much of my early portfolio work is art photography. When I got involved in portraiture and event photography, I haven’t spent as much time on art photography as I used to.
So you can imagine my surprise when I was asked to show some art pieces for Denver Arts Week in November. It’s actually been almost a month since I received the invitation and I’m still a little floored. And also excited.
Denver Arts Week runs from November 6-14th and features a number events, as well as local restaurants and artists teaming up to celebrate art in our fair city.
My work will be shown at Il Posto, an Italian eatery featuring the work of Chef Andrea Frizzi. Il Posto will be celebrating the “complicated simplicty of Italian food and wine” during the week. In addition to dinner, they are also open for “Ora Felice” each day.
They are located at 2011 E. 17th Avenue. Call 303-394-0100 for reservations.
I’ll never forget the last photography class I had in college — we had to create a series of work to show. It took me over a year just to decide what I was going to attempt to work on before I ever enrolled in the class. At least this time, I was able to get an idea of what I wanted to show. Although editing the collection down to a few pieces has been a challenge — I’ve already rejected a few of the prints after not liking the way they flowed with the other pieces, and changed them out for others. I am certainly picky, that is for sure.
The series that I will be featuring during the week comes from the amazing dance performance I was fortunate enough to photograph this summer from the Isolated Incident performance group’s “The Things They Say.”
Dance is amazingly beautiful to watch, although challenging to photograph, but I was lucky to snap a few shots to capture the beauty of movement. To see a small preview of the work that will be shown, please click here.
I invite you to come out and celebrate art with me during the week, and I hope you’ll stop by Il Posto and enjoy the pieces I’ve chosen and some awesome food.
