My First Month at The Augusta Chronicle

Here's a collection of work from my first month as the new staff photographer for the Augusta Chronicle. I was very fortunate to have heard about this position and I am grateful for the opportunity. December has been one of the longest and quickest months of my life and I still can't tell if I feel settled in our not. I suppose it will just take time (and having a bed at some point).

In my first month I have covered two funerals, a memorial, a hospital visit and many feature events. Here's a sample. Feedback with critiques and comments are welcomed.

This is a funeral I covered on Tuesday of Master Public Safety Officer Scott Richardson, 33, who died Wednesday, December 21, 2011 from wounds he received when shot during a traffic stop Tuesday evening in the City of Aiken, S.C. That's Richardson's 5-year-old son, Zander, saluting his casket in the second photo.

Citizens line the entrance way to Bethany Cemetery waiting for the procession bringing the casket of Officer Richardson.

Stop the Violence

This is from a "Stop the Violence" rally held at Glenn Hills High School. Webster Thacker, Naquan Henderson and Anthony Washington, students at Glenn Hills, were all killed since the start of the 2011 school year in September.

Three of theses photos are from the Eddie Adams Workshop. I was attempting to take a nap on top of the hill by the truck but ended up taking numerous photos instead. The plant photo is from my beautiful backyard in southern Indiana.
