2010: Real Photo Postcard Survey
bc
ll
As part of J. Shimon & J. Lindemann's collaborative project with the Portrait Society in Milwaukee, we had our portraits taken joining the continuum of photographic history. "The project pays homage to the 'real photo postcard' – a way for isolated people in small Midwestern towns to show-and-tell something about their existence to family and friends in far-away places a century ago via the mail. The commissioned portrait-making process is fraught with issues of mortality, sentimentality, nostalgia, humility, utility, vanity and self-acceptance all encapsulated in a performance of self standing on the black tape line."

2009: Critical Mass finalist
cm

We were among 175 finalists in Photolucida's Critical Mass for our portraits. They shared some of the juror comments with us: "Truly some of the most refreshing work I have seen in a long time. The roman bust approach along with incredibly sensitive(but revealing) lighting as a process and aesthetic work incredibly well together. The choice of women also seems important and a key part to your success. These faces offer lines to a long story worth reading. The culmination, some kind of magic I would call a fine display of matriarchy and as you said in your statement – there is not much of this out there in the world to be found. They are a bit uncomfortable to look at initially because they are both confrontational and soft – great work."
