Chris Leaman’s Freshman Class

Chris Leaman is the staff photographer for Washingtonian Magazine, and recently was able to shoot Congress’s freshman class for the magazine. The results are amazing and somewhat hilarious, as many of these freshmen are political newbies and not particularly guarded (or for that matter, groomed).

How’d You Light That, Timothy Devine?

You ever see a picture in a magazine and think, “wow, now that’s a tricky assignment”. Me too. I had that x 100 when I saw Timothy Devine’s image for New York Magazine’s “Come Here Often?” column last week.

Pieter Hugo and Mona Kuhn!

Same Hill, Different Day.

This is the one in which Paul Octavious shares with us the life of a hill. Lovely.

A Moment in Motion: Nuit Blanche.

I’m trying to learn things about motion. I consulted Motionographer today to that end, and found Nuit Blanche. I love it; it’s violent and sparkly and slowwwww.
