What a Week: HHDL in Arkansas

I can only say one word about last week: Whew. OK, so I have a few more words. But this is the (very) condensed version. Last week was the culmination of years of work on the part of many people. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet visited our campus and our community, cha ... Continue Reading

I think this has been the busiest few weeks of my life. We’re moving today and tomorrow and am almost finished renovating the house we’re moving into. On top of that, eight people are coming to stay with us on Tuesday to see the Dalai Lama on Wednesday! Briefly: • ... Continue Reading

UA College of Engineering: Prius and People!

Last week I did a quick shoot for the University of Arkansas College of Engineering. I’m still fuzzy on the details, but the college is working with Toyota on a project that will make the Prius’ Hybrid Synergy Drive much, much smaller. I spent an hour or so shooting ... Continue Reading

Lunar Eclipse + “Old Main and the Moon” ...

First of all, Merry Christmas! I hope you and yours have a great holiday and that you do nothing but relax and eat pie. I prefer peach, but pecan will do. Last week, as you might have heard, was the first total lunar eclipse that happened on the winter solstice in almost 400 year ... Continue Reading

UA Honors College Website Revamp

A few weeks ago I finished some work for the University of Arkansas Honors College. They contracted me to do some photo work for their brochures and mailouts, as well as for the revamp of their website. The new website has been launched, and I’ve counted over 20 of my photo ... Continue Reading

I recently did a bit of photo work for the University of Arkansas Honors College for their website and recruitment brochures. The few student portraits I did have now manifested themselves in the bottom half of the brochure you see below (unfolded, of course). I’ve been tol ... Continue Reading

‘Tis done. I’ve finalized my honors thesis, after integrating my committee’s comments, and will turn it in this week. It’s the culmination of four years of study, and because of it, I’ll graduate with honors. I did most of the work in Costa Rica, and ... Continue Reading

Mini Post: Fayetteville Hotspots

A few weeks ago, I went around taking some photos of local businesses for the Traveler. They did a student poll–one of those “Best of X” things–and I got to take photos of a few of the winners. In other news, SCHOOOOOOOL’S OUT. FOR. SUMMER. I just ha ... Continue Reading

A Noon Photowalk at the U of A

It is an unwritten rule that the worst light to take photographs in is around noon. The sun is straight over head, so the shadows are flat/boring, the colors aren’t vibrant, and worst of all, it’s usually hot. OK, so that rule is probably written in lots of places. Bu ... Continue Reading

Quidditch–Muggle Style

Last Saturday I went to take my first ever sports photos for the UA Yearbook. My first sports photography experience was probably different than every other professional photographer’s first such experience to date: I was lucky enough to be thrown into this genre of photogr ... Continue Reading

Todos Por la Reforma: Immigration Reform Rally

Razorback Stadiums

Over spring break, I went out to shoot the various stadiums at Arkansas for the Traveler to use in a new sports blog. I don’t like sports, and I’ve never pretended to. That said, I wasn’t too impressed with these photos, mainly because of the subject and the fac ... Continue Reading

Kill That Tomato

A couple of weeks ago, I took a few photos of my friend Rachel Moore, a senior math major/philosophy minor at the U of A who plans on going to culinary school, for a profile on her in The Arkansas Traveler. Disclaimer: Everything Rachel makes tastes good incredible, so much that ... Continue Reading

Project XXX Follow Up

Project XXX has now been taken down at the Anne Kittrell Gallery. After phoning the Provost to get it extended a week and to complain about the paper on the windows, they finally took it down because the next artist needed a week to set up (sounds fishy to me…). All in all, ... Continue Reading

A Plug for Project XXX

This post relates to me only in that it is on behalf of my better half. Two years ago, Darby Gieringer embarked on a term project for a Gender Studies Honors Colloquium taught by Dr. David Fredrick at the University of Arkansas. In this project, she photographed 30 people nude a ... Continue Reading

“And the sky is a hazy shade of winter” ...

So, we’ve had some crazy weather in Fayetteville these past few days. School let out (yes, the University actually closed!) by 5 p.m. on Thursday and was closed all day Friday, and today things didn’t open up until 10 a.m. We had about 8 inches of snow as well as plen ... Continue Reading
