Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes.
Who's your favorite fictional journalist?
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Keep it casual, but professional. I like succinct pitches (no more than 5-7 sentences). Submit assets as links, not attachments.
What tools and software do you use to do your job?
Capture One, Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop, ON1, and WordPress
What's your favorite social network?
Instagram.
Why did you become a journalist?
Visual storytelling through photography is my passion.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Illegitimi non carborundum.
When's the best time to pitch you?
Morning (9 AM - 11 AM CT).
What's the worst pitch you ever got?
"We've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty."
When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?
Behind the lens.
Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?
Morning (9 AM- 11 AM CT)
What's the most common misperception about your beat?
Crediting the photographer is common sense.
