A well deserved congratulations goes out to the Purple Knights after their 3-2 win over Agawam. The pride of the fans was as intense as the game itself. You guys played a great game!

UMass Amherst student focuses on Holyoke...
Stephanie Geiser, a UMass Amherst art student, is using Holyoke as the focus of her Thesis for a Bachelors in Fine Arts, concentration in Photography. Stephanie is concentrating on the Water St section of the city and is producing visual display of the plight of industrialism. The project is a conceptual look at time and space, designed to be presented to the viewer as walk through installation piece, this body of work will be a visual examination of a once thriving, economic powerhouse that helped drive the city. Her image/s will be re-contextualized in former mill space, in which the viewer will engage with and navigate through. I have had the pleasure of working with Stephanie on other projects as well as she is an intern at our studio. She has a been a beneficial help to our business in addition to be an exceptional photographer and artist. You can view a sample of her Holyoke photographs (not for her thesis) below.
You can find more examples of her work by visiting her website by clicking here Stephanie
This video is a behind the scenes clip that highlights the area she is focusing on.

Exciting things...
It has been a short time since I have posted on here. I have been super busy both in studio and with on location work. I have some super exciting images to share in the next few days, and will be doing so as the week goes on. This weekend was very disheartening as I watched a building in Chicopee come down in a blaze of flames and emotions. You can view the images on Lenshare.com or Masslive.com/chicopeefire
Here are a few simple shots from my new cell phone. As I meander around town in my commute, I happen to make snapshots of the city from time to time...

Holyoke is grappling with too many Grauples
So we have had quite a winter thus far. It is not over just yet. I found it to be a little contrived to be out shooting during the storms; so I went out last night for a bit and made some photos. All the images, minus the exposure adjustments, were photographed as you see them. No special edits were done to enhance the aesthetics of each image.
