Welcome Wagon & Sufjan Stevens!

Welcome Wagon & Sufjan Stevens! That’s right!  They came through and played at Miller Chapel here at Princeton Seminary.  We decided to take Espen and see how long he would last, and we made around an hour or so.  And, wouldn’t you know it but Sufjan Stevens was playing with them (orange shirt, on the...

mitch - I’m a big fan of the act, but because I was in Pittsburgh, I missed the show. I would have loved to have a chance to meet them.

Joel - I’m glad you two appreciate what we got to see! It was our first time, and it was definitely awesome!

Bryan Rupp - Dood, that’s so awesome that the Welcome Wagon came to Princeton! And that Sufjan was there as well, I am echoing Alisa’s comment! Great shots Joel, I really love that first one, it’s really beautiful.

Across the board…

Across the board… I’ve been involved in many different photographic endeavors recently, ranging (as stated above) across the board.  Here’s a quick preview of a couple things I’ve been seeing through my camera. I had the great opportunity to work with one of Cherice’s professors, Dr. Charlesworth, for whom I photographed a couple of his...

Bryan Rupp - Joel, thanks for putting up some of the shots you did with the professor, I was excited to see how those came out with the boxes that you bought. Looks great man! A friend and I were just discussing how we needed to get a hold of the dead sea scrolls and just read them ourselves to clear some things up. I think you are really my only chance so if you can just pass those baby’s on my way once you have them that would be awesome! Don’t worry about insuring them in the mail…I’ve never had the postal service lose anything and plus that saves at least a few dollars. Hope all is well friend, so looking forward to you and your family living here again! Great work on the birthday party pictures as well. Did you touch up those blue eyes on that one kid? They are incredible!

Joel - Thanks, Sally! I think a lot of these were actually shot with a 24mm lens, so the portrait length is not always needed, although it can help at times. =)

Sally - I love the expressive baby blues on that sweet baby. Beautiful photos Joel! Your photo makes me want to use my portrait lens for more day to day stuff.

Visiting the east coast…part II

Visiting the east coast…part II Continuing on the journey, we decided to take a hike along the Appalachian Trail in the Delaware Water Gap.  Although it was very cold, it was nice to get out and hike.  It’s a spot we’ve been to before, where I’ve done some fly fishing with a good friend.  The...

Kathryn - Hey, thanks for the hike and tour!! Fun to do it from my easy chair, altho it would have been more fun to BE there!! I keep wondering IF Espen will remember these experiences on the East Coast–he’s so smart–he’s probably storing it all in his computerized memory bank!! Kakee

Visit to the East Coast…

Visit to the East Coast… There’s a really good explanation for the long delay on any posts, and that is due to an expected visit from my folks.  They hadn’t been out to Princeton before, so we had a great time showing them not only around the local area, but up in NY and down...

Bryan Rupp - Joel, so great to talk to you tonight man, as always! I’m so thankful for your friendship and thankful to be able to share the journey of photography with such a great friend. Hope you have a great evening man and I’m really looking forward to you guys being back!

Cherice - Of course, we could just say that Joel wasn’t actually there and all we did was bring our handy-dandy friend, Tripod, since Joel’s not in any of the pictures!! (Not that any of us know how to use your cameras well enough to get said pictures, but that’s beside the point…) =)
