This was shot last year for Pentagram and I love shooting for them. Most of the time when they commission me for a job, I have creative freedom. They asked me to shoot the cover for Montessori life. The direction was to use knobless cylinder blocks to show diversity within Montessori schools. I sketched out a few ideas and they loved them. I executed both but one went with one for the cover and it looked amazing. I always look forward for more Pentagram shoots.
I was recently recommended for a photoshoot. This one was quite interesting….I had no idea of what I was photographing until the moment it arrived. The info I received was “a device for oil rigs”….that was it. The client showed up with the device before anyone else, so he explained to me what it was. Not really understanding oil rig term, Its a key and dissolvable ball to help the pump rate during fracs. As I started to shoot this metal pipe key, I realized it sucked in light and never gave it back. It was a fun challenge shooting it but the client loved the shots and the exploded view and was super satisfied.
