We make it
possible for millions around the globe to see events of the day from
distances that may be only a few miles from their home to remote
areas around the world. It is
through our images the people are able to see life's portraits of joy
and sorrow in the eyes and faces of the living and dying. Our
responsibility is to document without deceit. This would also include
responsibly investigating events so if the event was staged for media
purposes we would be able to so advise. When documenting responsibly
our images may create a wide range of emotions from joy to sorrow and even
horror. There are thankfully times when our images help improve our world
and the plight of our fellow man. Regrettably there will also be times when the opposite
is true. While we may make the decision not to take the shot...the bottom line is regardless of the subject matter as
press/editorial photographers we have a responsibility to the people to
provide unaltered documentary images. We embrace the NPPA
code of ethics.
The workflow
Recent improvements to digital camera
sensors has moved digital imagery, in the opinion of an increasing numbers
of my peers, to a level equal to and in some cases better than film. In
fact more and more state-of-the-art studios are going totally digital. The
processed images are previewed and sent to a professional lab for printing
or as is in the majority of the cases, processed and printed in the dry
lab on site. I am of the opinion the digital image is far cleaner than
images produced from film. By shooting digital we can shoot an assignment
and within minutes upload and transport large image files electronically anywhere
around the globe.
Depending
upon the intended usage high resolution image capture is simultaneously in Raw and Jpeg,
unsharpened, RGB or sRGB color space, with normal contrast. In the field images
are downloaded to a portable workstation with original file and it's
metadata left intact. All images are captioned and categorized per NAA/IPTC
codes. Depending upon the
size of the project and time line, images and text for editorial/press
projects may be uploaded and transported at high-speed electronically or
CD created and delivered over-night. Please give us a call if you have any
