November 7, 2008 // Personal

it's a word usually loosely used with photographers nowadays.  i try as much as possible to suit my photographs in a journalistic kinda way. really, that's why i got into photography. to simply tell stories.

anyway, one of the ways i draw my photography inspiration is by looking through newspapers (and news magazines).  my friend shared on her blog a series of photos from the NY times. Click here to check them out. just another way i drew inspiration from this whole election.
