Ugly? Coffee? Yummy!

Well, I’ve just finished up a shoot for Ugly Mug Coffee Company out of Memphis, Tennessee. Not only was this a fun product to shoot, the company is a great company to work for. They have a great mission … they basically support the coffee growers who are normally exploited. Gotta love a company with a heart.

Espresso Shot

What you see here in this one espresso shot is an espresso shot and three chocolate espresso cookies. So I guess that means this is a shot of four espresso shots … one way or another.

Do You Hear What I Shoot?

I was on location at the new Noah Liff Opera Center … the new headquarters for the Nashville Opera. I have been commissioned to shoot architectural photography for the architect Earl Swensson. One of the features of their new space is that they can setup a complete dress rehearsal on site rather than having to go to the performance venue (TPAC – Tennessee Performing Arts Center).

While I was there to shoot the facility in use I took a moment as I was packing up my gear to shoot a little of the performance – Amahl and the Night Visitors. It’s a neat show. I love the costumes … and the story line is fun.

You’ll just have to wait to see the architecture. We’ve got 3 shots and 5 or more to go. We’re simply waiting on the final touches from the interior designer.
