The Junction courses are about to wrap up, and although there are many photos and stories to share, getting to sleep four hours every night is catching up on us! So, I’ll just share a shot of my class, the A-Team! I ended up with four in the videography course, and they are working their [...]
Our first and second day at Junction saw us shooting quite a bit of flower work. The rain has come pretty regularly, and we take advantage of the overcast skies by shooting on a macro level. I’m engrossed in high-speed sync flash work again, and I’m finding a few inhabitants along the way. Macro work [...]
Early mornings and late nights, little sleep, and awesome light! Wyman Meinzer and I are back in Junction, and over the next 15 days, I’ll try to keep the site posted with little asides from our adventures with 15 college students, all of them here to dive deep in visual creativity!

Here’s a little blues music for floating the river… River Run, by Jerod Foster from Jerod Foster on Vimeo. Each year, I get to co-teach a 15-day photography workshop in Junction, Texas, at Texas Tech University’s satellite campus. Wyman Meinzer and I guide 12 students in to some of the most pristine parts of the [...]
I’m starting to think that those folks that blog everyday either a) have a lot of time on their hands, b) are making direct advertising monies (yes, monies) from their blog hits (just check out Strobist, great blog), c) are always at a computer, or d) love what they do, and see the benefit in [...]
Alright! Wyman and I are back at Texas Tech University in Junction, our OTHER place, ha! Each year, Wyman and I come to Junction to lead a 15-day photography workshop that counts as class credit with the university, and each year, we get a totally new batch of eager students who get to see some [...]
