Unwritten rights

December 6, 2022

Back in the fall, I spent part of an afternoon capturing Indiana University student Etain Prill while they worked in a campus printmaking studio. I was fortunate to have this opportunity as part of a recent issue of The Washington Post Magazine examining unwritten constitutional rights in the wake of a Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Writing in a concurrence to that decision, Justice Clarence Thomas called on the court to also reconsider several other cases that established such unwritten rights – including the right to same-sex intimacy established in Lawrence v. Texas in 2003.

Scenes along U.S. Bicycle Route 235

December 16, 2021

Last month, I had the opportunity to spend a chunk of a weekend photographing the sights along Indiana USBR 235, a 120-mile leg of the U.S. Bicycle Route System between Indianapolis and Seymour, for a travel section feature in The Washington Post. This shoot was a lot of fun. Beyond a shot list of a few places to capture from the reporter, Andrea Sachs, I had the creative freedom to drive the route and make pictures. The route was gorgeous in all its peak fall foliage glory, and these photos cannot begin to do it justice. For years, I have enjoyed riding several of the roads along this route. This was a neat chance to combine a couple of my passions – photography and cycling – to showcase some of these hidden gems to a national audience.

FedEx forklift driver James Wilson

March 5, 2019

Last week I photographed inside the FedEx Express Hub in Indianapolis for a weekend story in The Wall Street Journal about the booming U.S. economy. I left my house at 1:17 a.m. and arrived at the massive facility at the Indianapolis International Airport just before 2:30 a.m. I’ve been in a lot of factories over the years, but I had never seen anything like this. The subject for the story, James Wilson, is a material handler who uses a forklift to pack pallets of overnight packages into aluminum shipping containers to be loaded onto airplanes. Wilson’s work area is a ballet of forklifts playing three-dimensional Tetris. It kept me on my toes. I had my head on a swivel to make sure I wasn’t walking into the path of a forklift or getting in the way of the other workers. It was incredible to get a glimpse of the intricate process that goes on while most of us are asleep.
