I have been posting to this blog for over 13 years, each year reporting on accomplishments over the prior year and goals for the new year.

2024 is a little different. I’ve decided that this Blog will be my main photography communication vehicle. Content will be varied and in the spirit of my approach to photography as described on the "About" page of my website at www.jeffmarcowitz.photography 

Unlike the past, all content posted here in the blog will NOT also be on the website Project W pages. I intend to make the Project W pages more of a curated collection of work representing the “Best Of” images posted here on the Blog. With a subscription, you'll continue to receive an email (with content) whenever I post to the Project W Blog.

Thanks to all of you who have followed this photo blog for many years and welcome to any newcomers. My hope is that the images and stories are interesting and thought-provoking as I continue this creative journey. As always, comments, critiques and suggestions (here and the website) are welcome and appreciated as they often lead to new ideas and inspiration.

Thank You.
Jeff

2 Years Later

2 Years Later
Via Flickr:
For those of you who have followed my $2 Portraits project, this young woman may look familiar. The story began in March 2010 in San Francisco and another chapter was written today.

As remote a possiblility as one could imagine, last month my son and his girlfriend moved to Indiana and coincidentally are living less than 3 miles from this young woman and her family. Of all the places in the US that they could have landed...and to land so close to her, will never cease to amaze me. So today, while visiting my son and his girlfriend, we met as families for the first time.

It was great to see her doing well, a far cry from the streets of San Francisco where we first met.

Now for the excuses - I did not want to interrupt this occasion by pulling out a big camera and taking lots of photos. Hence, this iPhone shot is the only one I have from this reunion.

    Jeff, I am so glad that you have been able to see with your own eyes the rewards of the kindness you showed this young woman. Who ever would have thought a "$2 Portrait" could have had such a far-reaching effect? I'm proud of her, and proud of you.
