My Interview with Sinar Bron Imaging

Sinar Bron Imaging recently interviewed me on their Big Blog. Bron Imaging makes professional camera and lighting equipment. What attracted their attention was a stop motion animation that I did. It's an interesting and fun read, it also gives you a little insight into my world. Check it out HERE, @ Bron Imaging Blog.

Personal Work

This test shot was a practice and study in lighting, composition and prop gathering. It is a shot editorial in nature, of mens accessories. Working closely with my wonderful photo stylist Kevin Hardiek, (see his web site HERE) this shot came together so fast and with such ease that I was scratching my head and asking myself if it really could be this easy. But in reality we discussed this photo extensively for three weeks prior, and we gathered all our props and we knew exactly what we were after. With proper planning and dialog, the execution of this photo went surprisingly smooth and flawless. See more at my portfolio HERE.

The New York Times Magazine Ad_Photographer John Pluska

I have been fortunate enough to have my images reproduced in the New York Times Magazine. This was not an easy task. I photographed many images over the course of two weeks to produce this final image that appeared the last couple of weeks in the New York Times Magazine. I am told that it is a huge hit, doing what it is supposed to do, sell merchandise. We have also been contacted by a professor from a university to use this ad in his teachings of successful advertising. A huge thank you goes out to my stylist, Linda Candella, and art director Joy Pontrello, and my assistant, of which I have had a few over the course of this assignment, you know who you are!
