kendra morris

June 1, 2012 by chip

Shot the fab Kendra Morris for Bay Magazine a few months back and it just ran, so here you go…a lot of my shoots these days are like this: Here’s a name, go meet them and have fun. I like that. Freedom. The one catch was that she is a thrift shop junkie and that had to be represented a bit, so we basically spent afternoon running to her favorite joints Art Pool Rules in St. Petersburg and Thrift [...]

beach bum

October 10, 2011 by chip

Just stay on the sand. I love these kinds of assignments…and these type of clients. Bay Magazine is visually helmed by Bruce and Suzette Moyer up at the St. Petersburg Times, and they do an amazing job with their photo play in the high-end travel/lifestyle magazine every month. My gig was about perfect – just drive the coastline of Florida from Ft. DeSoto Park in St. Petersburg to Clearwater Beach, stop, head to the beach and make [...]

$20 monogrammed toilet paper

March 24, 2011 by chip

I can’t even think of what I could eat that would warrant a $20 monogrammed single roll of toilet paper, but nonetheless it exists. I thought Naples was the richest city in Florida. Then I went to Worth Ave. in Palm Beach. I parked my beat down VW in an alley because it just looked sad amongst the Lambos, Jags, and Hummers. I was sent to Naples and Palm Beach in one weekend to hit high end shopping districts for [...]

aaron’s ark

March 3, 2011 by chip

These little plastic boxes of computer parts and glass we dangle from our necks don’t just produce rectangles. They give us access to our neighbors. They give us the opportunity to feed our passion for documenting the life of strangers, and lets strangers share their passion for living life. I met Aaron as the sun rose and he was already working. The continental breakfast from the hotel in the tiny spit of a town called Live Oak was barely even [...]

vacation crasher

November 27, 2010 by chip

I’ve said it before, but my favorite assignments usually involve getting a call from an editor, asking me to go to place “x” for a few days and shooting “whatever.” Luckily, this time place “x” was a private island off the coast of southeastern Georgia for a multiple page spread in Bay Magazine – a high-end lifestyle mag put out by the St. Petersburg Times. Little St. Simons Island is 10,000 acres of mostly untouched marshes and beaches with a [...]
