Progress

Today's issue of Time Magazine contains a portrait I took of author Jhumpa Lahiri. It's my first big national magazine, so I'm very proud. 3.5 million people get to see my work. Much like New Jersey, that's pretty awesome.

You can see a better copy of the photo and even read the article, if you're into those 'wooordz' things the kids are all on about, here on time.com

Congratulations, Bill! I really like how the picture darkens as it approaches the outside of the frame, which mirrors the same effect on the dress she is wearing. Captivating.

First that is a sweet portrait. It does make me want to read the article and I will.
