Made this while at a mill for an advertising shoot the other day. The light was surreal and the environment reminded me of growing up in Buffalo; icy temperatures & bleak skies.
Foraging with Gene Thiel
An opportunity came up to visit Gene Thiel out in Joseph Oregon with Chef and food savant Robert Reynolds. We planned to go foraging for Porcini mushrooms in the Wallowa mountains. Gene’s crops of root vegetables were far too young to harvest, so instead this time of year Gene & Patrick had been foraging in [...]
Recent BW Film Project
Recently I have been thinking of ways to shake up my usual shooting processes.

However, this is the image that speaks to me. This photo is chef Dolan Lane in the midst of dinner service. I love that it’s layered, dark [...]
