Alex Schibli the King of Rats Island for The New York Post Pulse cover and jump

Alex Schibli bought an island in the New York Archepelegio that he can call his own and we went out there in canoes and rowboats to shoot his family having a picnic on it. It was hot, the rowboat paddles gave me blisters. The shoot was scheduled for 12 noon, probably the worst time of day lighting wise. In short it was rough. I had to use fill flash to deal with the harsh shadows and the heat was intense. Still in the end it worked out ( have some minor emotional scars from the experience but nothing too bad) and  it made the cover of The Pulse section of the New York Post today and the jump which helps with the healing process alot.

Kelcey Kintner and The French Way of parenting in today's NY Post

This was a story about the French method of parenting which supposedly is much more laisez-faire than in America. Kelcey Kintner of  mamabirddiaries.com is quoted as not subscribing to the ways of Froggie mom's and dads. For the portrait I was really looking for an eye of the hurricane feel and I think I got a pretty funny and sweet result with these shots. The pix were published in the print edition in the jump but didn't get into the online edition. See the whole shoot here.
