UW’s Daniel Te’o-Nesheim
With the start of the football season upon us, I thought I would post a recent assignment for Sports Northwest Magazine. We were hired by a former co-worker from our days at the Seattle P-I, Todd Dybas, who is now the editor at the magazine. He wanted a cover shot of University of Washington football […]
Discovery Park Engagement Session
I spent some time with Sarah and Kris at Discovery Park recently. The weather and light were outstanding, and their chemistry is undeniable. We had a lot of fun…a taste of what’s to come during their March wedding at the Lake Union Cafe. –Andy
Tips for Taking Exercise Slowly
Popular culture would have us believe that if we’re not logging hundreds of miles running marathons, grinding out a daily online cycling class or hitting the gym before dawn like pro bodybuilders that we’re not working out hard enough. Or long enough. Or far enough. That, friends, is folly. Read more about link text. Truth: […]

Hanging Out With Drew Carey
I had a fun assignment recently for the Los Angeles Times, hanging out with one of the Seattle Sounders’ owners, actor/comedian/game-show host Drew Carey. I wasn’t sure what to expect. Carey was a great guy and very down-to-earth. I anticipated a real high-energy Chris Farley-like personality, but he was nothing like that. He was very […]
P-I Tribute
Former employees and supporters of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer gathered last night at Town Hall Seattle for a final tribute to the newspaper, which ceased publication on March 17 after 146 years. Folk singer Heidi Muller performed her original song, “Goodnight, P-I” (see video above) and various P-I employees including editorial cartoonist David Horsey and sports […]
STYX & REO SPEEDWAGON
It was a flash back to my youth with the arena rock show that I photographed recently at the ShoWare Center in Kent, as Styx, REO Speedwagon and .38 Special made their way to the Northwest. The heyday of these bands has definitely passed, but the enthusastic fans didn’t seem to mind. Not all of […]
Blue Skies & Red Box
The staff at Red Box Pictures had a request for a group photo for an upcoming article in News Photographer magazine. So we decided to get out of the studio and head to one of the most beautiful spots in the city; Alki Point. It was one of those days, and evenings, that make all the rainy Seattle days worthwhile. I can hear the song playing now…..the bluest skies you’ve ever seen are in Seattle.
Dust up at the Hanford Nuclear Site
My recent visit to the Hanford Site, a decommissioned nuclear production complex near Richland, Wash. ended up being challenging in ways I never expected.
When I first took the assignment from the Washington Post, I presumed that gaining access to would be difficult, but after a few phone calls, I got connected with Geoff Tyree, with U.S. Department of Energy, who was more than helpful in coordinating a visit to the site, where plutonium was once manufactured for use in the first nuclear bomb and in Fat Man, the bomb detonated over Nagasaki, Japan.
Perfect Prop
I recently had the opportunity to photograph my 10-month-old son Harry with his cousins. The challenge was to get Harry on the same level with the older kids. He isn’t able to stand on his own yet, and he is hard to photograph from a sitting position because he wants to crawl away. Three kids sitting didn’t seem like it would make the best photo either.
Poster Boy
Durandy is passionate.
Andy Golub has amassed the largest collection of Duran Duran posters in the world, which he keeps archived to museum standards in a Bellevue storage facility. Whether you ever were or still are a fan of the English band (I was), you have to admire when a person puts all of himself into doing something the right way. Durandy has been doing it right, collecting rare items from around the world since early 1985 and making them available for admiration by other fans via his Durandy Productions website.
Adorable Baby Lachlan
Baby Lachlan here is the cover-child for May’s Seattle’s Child Magazine. Liz Gillespie, the magazine’s editor asked me to track down a little one for their “New Arrivals” issue and fortunately, I knew a baby with just the right personality.
3, 2, 1…liftoff!
Welcome to the blog. We’re getting this thing rolling so that our clients, friends and family can keep an eye on what we’re up to as we forge ahead on our new adventure. Red Box Pictures is a new photography studio in Seattle founded by four former Seattle Post-Intelligencer photographers shortly after the paper closed in March. We decided to go into business together for a bunch of reasons, but one of the biggest was to preserve some of the great camaraderie we shared as members of a newspaper staff.
