Hello Everyone,

What a summer it has been!  I have moved yet again due to a very unsavory and dishonest landlord at the house I rented at the Commons.  It was more major than the move from NYC (and my belongings being shipped to Massachusetts)!   BUT...everything happens for a reason as we all know and I am VERY happy in my new place.  PLUS it is literally a mere few doors away from the studio. YEA!

School is now underway and going full force now.  I have just been approved to work with the Director of Photography and the Art Department via Directed Study for the fall semester at the University.  Believe me, you cannot imagine how much this helps the project.   We have one more portrait shoot which will bring Phase I of shooting to completion.  Starting during the next week Phase II begins.  This phase will be various sites in and around Salem.  We are leaning more towards hidden gardens and some of the really mystical locations in Salem.  If you have any suggestions for really cool sites please let me know!.  Of course this style of photography is completely different than studio shooting, and we all know that is where my strength is.  However, with the guidance of all the pros at the University I am sure that the shots for the left side of the book will be just as glorious and mystical as the portraits of the ladies.  These shots will not be published on the Smugmug site galleries.  The only time you will see them is in glorious print via the book itself.   Really, other photogs  rarely if ever  let people see the photographs prior to publication - but we did, in effort to express our gratitude to our fans, supporters, and the ladies themselves.

The Team and I are steadily moving forward with the project. Each and every day there are tasks either worked on or completed regarding MWS.  The Professor's were right...this project is HUGE and you cannot imagine how much work it requires to bring this project to fruition.  However, I am assured by the "powers at be"  that the rewards will be beyond our wildest expectations.   

During the next few months of shooting I will be blogging about the shoots and will be releasing PR photographs to announce the publication of the posts...so stay tuned everyone.  Remember....

Feel  the  Power,  Experience the Magic !   R :}
