Steady 70 Photography

This is a continuous journey, a meeting of the minds, a traveler traveling on and off assignments throughout the world. It is a testament of Life, in images and in words. From Europe to the Caribbean, to Latin America to to the Far East, from Tacipa to Tusan. This blog is my voice, modern story telling of my job, life, passion, the people, the place and most importantly the experience. the drive of this adventure is the open road: the sounds, the smells, the tastes. THE UNKNOWN.

My Father, Your Father

FRANCINE DU PLESSIX GRAY

Published: March 26, 2009

Imagine four little girls — Jane and Maggy Cummins, Jenny and Patricia Stuart, two pairs of sisters, each pair of approximately the same age — who are deeply bonded to one another, all the more so because their smart, glamorous mothers and fathers are the closest of friends. In fact, the Americans Paul and Helen Stuart and the Australians Edward and Rosemary Cummins (both men are foreign service officers) become so inseparable that within a few months they trade partners. Jenny and Patricia’s father, Paul, becomes Maggy and Jane’s stepfather — and their father, Edward, moves in with Jenny and Patricia and their mother.

THE SISTERS ANTIPODES

By Jane Alison

By 277 pp. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. $23

Jane Cummins (now Jane Alison), the author of “The Sisters Antipodes,” tells us that the “split,” as she bluntly calls these ­rearrangements, left the four girls in shock — a “numb shock like a crack inside a stone . . . silently fissuring.” “We formed ourselves around the primary facts of the split,” she explains, adding that within each girl lay “a mass of fantasy, jealousy and longing that was crucial and would define us.”

For the past 4 years I have been working with my friend and Author Jeff Rivera. Here are some of the images that he has chosen for his new book and key note speaking engagements. We were fighting the rain and the cloudy skies and had to reschedule the shoot about 4 times due to Mother Nature. All Clothing was provided by Perry Ellis for this shoot.

A long drive and 2 days at Niagara Falls………….

Niagara Falls June 2009!

What can I not say about the drive to Niagara Falls, or viewing it from Canada? I still taste the salty water on my tongue.

My camera was completely wrapped and my lens was covered in plastic and hidden under a towel but that did not prevent me from capturing a few magic moments under a rainbow or 2.

Images from the past 2 shoots at The Lodge at Woodloch a destination spa

Going back through my past assignments I am trying to catch up on my blog until the rain passes here in NYC. The Lodge at Woodloch is a little hidden gem located in Pennsylvania’s lake region. I had my first amazing experience working with the team last spring.



The Lodge at Woodloch is a smoke free, cell phone free, totally organic Luxury destination Spa. On any given day you can spot deer, eat wild blueberries, or get lost in a spectacular sunset while kayaking on there private lake, or if you prefer you can just sit in the outside Jacuzzi and feed the chipmunks while gazing into the woods..


I have done all the above and I am waiting to go back to indulge once again!
