yeeeehaaaaa!

Just got back from a road trip with good friend and amazing photographer, Jack Edinger. We went down South to Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana. We had quite an adventure. Some highlights include: a visit to Mr. Eggleston's office, back-to-back WWE shows (Smack-Down and RAW), playing "yahver benta...?", dodging wild camels, $4 HIGH-LIFE pitchers, bumping into Elvis at the "House of Illusions" (Oh, by-the-way, Elvis did everything, before anyone did anything.) and plenty of meat n' two's. We each shot somewhere around 30 rolls, so keep an eye out for a possible collaboration book/project outlining some of our "wild and crazy" adventures. _b

new ideas.../ work

I've been trying to nail down some concrete ideas for a new project I've been kinda subliminally working on for sometime. I think I'm attempting to give a portrait of mid-western, modern middle-class America. I've been photographing the suburbs - (the people and the place), shopping centers, eating, excess, leisure, waste, advertising, etc. I'm just wondering if the project will be too broad, too big...? Any ideas / suggestions? _b

turtle.

I flew over the pacific ocean with this guy. He took the window seat on the plane and didn't let me look out even once, but that's ok I made him say "FUCK YOU!" during rush hour on the subway. (Very embarassing! If you've ever been to Tokyo you know what I mean... silent as all hell on those things! Sayonara _b

new photo book

I'm currently editing through some images for a new book I am "self-publishing" about life in the suburbs of a major American city. I should have it completed in about a week. _b

my favorite assistant:

I like how even on your days off, when I drag you to the suburbs, you still have a smile on your face.... Thanks for being such a good (and hott) photo assistant! _b

DAVEY, this one's for you.

What's up dude? I hope you like the pic. I have a couple prints for you and Tony. I'll call you about coming out on Friday. peace _b

briansorgfoto... updates

I've made a couple changes to my "professional" photography site: briansorgfoto. The majority of them being small updates to the interface; to hopefully make things easier for the viewer. When the semester is finished here at Columbia College, I'll throw up lots of new work from the photographs I have been shooting in Chicago's western suburbs. Check back. _b

constructing nature ...

I recently used Apple's service of publishing photo books through iPhoto. I got the book in the mail exactly one week after I uploaded the files to them. They offer a couple different options as far as hard / soft covers, sizes, and such. I chose the soft cover 6x8 version. The quality of the book is fair. The images could be a little sharper and the paper stock they use is a semigloss, which I am not a big fan of. But for the price and ease of the service and not to mention having a published (kinda) book with your name on it is kinda cool. I think if you have a small project your working on, some party photos, or for the purpose of a leave behind, the iPhoto books are worth the money. Mine was based on the fabrication of Chicago's Millennium Park. _b
