This site is a sample portfolio to illustrate various aspects of my work. Since it's only intended as a sample portfolio, I've disabled all of the blog features. Political photographs document events. They are NOT intended to reflect the photographer's views. A good journalist must remain neutral when covering any event.

Arias Trial
I spend nearly four days waiting for the verdict in the Arias murder trial outside the Maricopia Superior Court. This is day four when the verdict was announced. The first photo is of the victim's family lawyer giving a statement after the 1st degree murder verdict was announced. The second photo is of the crowds that swelled from a dozen earlier in the day to about a 1,000 who were waiting for the verdict.
