Viewmont Head shaving

Viewmont high shaved their heads after making their fund raising goal. I only found one student that had hair long enough that it would not grow back in a week or two.

mostly multimedia

Bison Round up, Antelope Island.



Between getting a new Director of Photography at the Tribune and our new focus on multimedia, I haven't taken many photos this past month. I have posted a couple of my recent video assignments below. Ute Basketball coach Jim Boylen is always fun to shoot.

BYU vs. Utah

I was assigned to shoot a video of the big Utah vs. BYU football game, but told not to shoot any action I wasn't very excited about it, until I saw the guy with the rubber cougar mask.

Bilal Hussein

Bilal Hussein is back in the news. Matt LaPlante and I met Bilal at the government center in Ramadi in October 2005. We were told by some of the American soldiers that they may not be legitimate journalists. Although he seemed legitimate (he had the same press credentials from the press center in Baghdad that we had) I had no idea at the time, that Bilal was a photographer, or that he was part of the Associate Press Iraq photo team that would later win the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography.

Halloween 2007

Carla painted the kids faces Halloween. This is Aliyah as a cat. I've been doing so many multimedia projects lately (6 in the past two weeks) They are fun (as long as I'm not shooting from a horse) but they seem to have taken up all my spare time and energy, and my still photography has been suffering.
