We have some absolutely amazing automotive photographers on PhotoPolitic — in fact, all of them are what I would consider best-in-class shooters. Some work in the studio, others spend most of their time on location and their work is nothing short of spectacular like you'd expect....
I’m not generally one to have ‘camera conversations’ but you can imagine that I’m often asked about the equipment and cameras I use. Here are a few of my thoughts on the subject and the cameras I own… When buying cameras, I’ve never dwelled on getting too technical but have always gone along...
While I’ve never been a bird owner nor have I ever been attracted to owning a bird, this new series, Earthbound by photographer Oliver Regueiro affected me in a profound way. I’ve been close to animal rights issues for a number of years (mostly with dogs and cats), but cruelty to any animal is a cri...
To say that Pete Turner had a profound effect on my creative process would be an understatement — he's someone that I credit for introducing me to the concept of photography as art and what was possible with taking color to an entirely different place......
There's not a day or an event that goes by where I'm not inundated with questions from aspiring (and even veteran) photographers asking me questions about how to best go about getting an agent and what to expect when finally finding what will hopefully be the beginning of a long and prosperous...

I get most of my news either online or listening to the radio in the car. When I talk with friends about wha...
Here we go again, another long, dark, and cold winter. Those are undoubtedly words of dread for some, but for many photographers, it’s a time for celebration. Winter is a magical season of dramatic dark light, ominous skies, and the endless array of fascinating textures that come as a result of subz...
Not much needs to be said surrounding the life, controversy, and impact that Robert Mapplethorpe has had on the photography world. He would have been 70-years old today — Happy Birthday Mr. Mapplethorpe!...
I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with Los Angeles. I was raised here from the age of two and managed to get out on more than a few occasions. But somehow, I always seem to get pulled back in. I’ve worked in film and television, I’ve worked with seemingly every major advertising agency, and I...
