A short Video Showing Construction underway in My Photography Studio
A short still life story about the beauty of soap and cleaning products. Ultra Joy, Dawn and Palmolive make short appearances. Dawn was ill but still made it to the studio. That soap is a real crowd pleaser (of course I am biased)

I shot this Story for Sotheby’s Catalog. A bit of backstory. The world’s largest rough diamond—weighing a jaw-dropping 1,109 carats—failed to sell at Sotheby’s London today, reaching a top bid of $61 million but falling short of the reserve. Named Lesedi La Rona, which translates to “our light” in the Tswana language, the tennis-ball-sized gem was unearthed from the Lucara Diamond Corporation’s Karowe mine in Botswana last November.
