Editorial Work | Garden Center Magazine Cover

Here's a peek at some recent editorial work I took onboard for Garden Center Magazine based out of Valley View Ohio. Just south of Cleveland. Under the amazing and wonderful Stephanie Antal, our art director over at the Garden Center Magazine, I believe we came away with some really nice imagery and a great story on the Longfellow's Garden Center. Alice Longfellow, our subject, and owner of Longfellow's along with her husband Bob could not have been more pleasant to work with. I shot a lot of "shallow depth of field" type images which is very unusual for me, but I'm happy with the result and most importantly the magazine is happy as well.

I do a fair amount of magazine work which I enjoy immensely. Sometimes when an art director or photo editor calls, they might have very specific direction for me, while other times it's pretty much a wide open canvas. When I go into a situation where I have creative license with respect to making the picture, I will look for scenarios that "tell" as much of the story as possible without having to use words. I very seldom know specifically what the piece is going to say, so as a general rule I will try to imagine the image running with no copy. This helps me a great deal when trying to decide on a location, props, gesture etc ... Below is an example of layering story elements into the frame without being excessively overt. It's an absolute favorite of mine. There are so many layers to this photograph, it just may be my favorite portrait from 2016. -td
