SacredEarth Vietnam Shoot





I love styling and shooting for my English client SacredEarth who manufactures mosaic wrought iron furniture. Contemporary style that's absolutely classic and elegant. Before every shoot we explore new concepts and I'm always encouraged to experiment. Love it!

The Importance of a Great Teacher: Jack Picone

Award-winning photographer Jack Picone generously spent three hours critiquing my personal project: Chungking Mansions while I was in Bangkok last month.

I had edited the body of work down to a small batch, but Jack generously insisted on seeing every image. My session with him brought back memories of having great teachers in my life: those who can look at your work and undo what sits annoyingly tangled in your subconscious.

In the three hours, I gained direction for my book project, saw what images I still needed and have a clear outline for the book. He told me exactly why an image worked or didn't, all the while remaining encouraging. I left feeling positive and focused.

I highly recommend The Jack Picone and Stephen Dupont Documentary Photography Workshops to serious amateurs and professional photographers.
