I’m also thrilled that I took the photos of the wood burnings and of Nidhi herself!]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2012/01/31/nidhis-work-is-for-sale-on-fab-com/ Following on the success of the first round of fashion-y photos of my ZAAZ London colleagues, we went for round 2 with the new folks. This time I shot seven people instead of the original 18, which really gave me some time to get it RIGHT. I feel like I learned a lot the first Read more...]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/12/13/zaaz-photos-round-two-are-up/ Been working on a few new things lately…watercolors, for the first time. All still being developed…]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/11/02/experimenting-with-watercolors/ …from my office, no less. This is obviously a major bummer. (Or as Lefteris would say, a major “bomber”.) Luckily I had just done a huge backup of my photos, so while this is an enormous hassle, it could be so much worse.

Take a look at the whole portfolio – seriously, it’s WEIRD! And they all have different personalities! “ACK! I didn’t see you there!” “Hey, good-lookin…” “Ooooooooh” Many more in the portfolio!]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/10/18/door-buzzers-in-venice-they-look-like-faces/ I’m a sucker for shots like this.

But I saw this project online (I’m not sure where) and I just had to make my own. It took about 20 minutes to make both and I did so before work one day. Quite a lot Read more...]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/10/13/halloween-crafts/ A few weeks back I had the pleasure of shooting the portraits that will run alongside an interview with the world’s leading Gabeologist. Having always considered myself something of an amateur Gabeologist myself, this was a delight. The maestro was in rare form. All of those, with the exception of the wide shot of the Read more...]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/10/11/dr-gabriel-mcclelland-reculsive-author-and-professor-of-gabeology/ My friend Ina was kind enough to take these lovely portraits of Lefteris and me in the lavender fields.]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/10/10/lefteris-and-me-in-the-lavender-fields/ Hooray! I got the 1st place prize this year in the “Story” category for this photo from Aaron and Ashley’s wedding: I’m not sure I ever posted about it, but last year I also won in the “Artistic” category for this photo: This kind of thing is really encouraging.]]> http://www.angelahillmathdetective.com/2011/10/09/wunderman-summer-photo-contest-winner/
