The Malone Crew
Yes, we agree...we work much better behind the camera than in front of one! But we wanted to share the fun anyway. See more images from the Crew shoot.

We packed up and headed to Frosty Pines Tree Farm for our snow day. The crew braved the snow and cold weather yesterday to create a library of outdoor winter images. Thanks to the help of Select Model Management we had great people to photograph- and had a blast creating images! Look for new images from the shoot- coming next week.

As a student at Florence Elementary School, Stephanie Kimberling always looked forward to the Grandparents Luncheon. This was a day where the students could honor their grandparents by inviting them to lunch at school surrounded by artwork created especially for this day and a special presentation. The tradition continues and Stephanie now volunteers her time to photograph the students with their grandparents. The photos are then assembled by her mother Barb Kimberling, an employee at Florence, onto a nice frame and sent home with the students.

No cables, no wires, no hassle! The new Eye-Fi Card is making things a little easier at Malone & Co.

Andrew Marinkovich captured this flying pig in action near Gretna. The meaning is still unclear, but chances are it's significant. Check back soon for further details...

Sam and I were out west for a few days of shooting in Hastings. Our journey included a stop at Murphy's Wagon Wheel (a microbrewery that doesn't actually brew their own beer). Anyhow it was still a good time. Check out some of the behind-the-scenes.

You won't see the Malone and Co crew wearing pink that often, so when asked about the trendy color, we can say "we are supporting breast cancer awareness." Thanks to the crew for sport'n their pink threads to celebrate Passionately Pink for the Cure! Please email Mike if you would like to see him wear a tie more frequently.

Geoff Johnson, along with his wife Anne and their friends, took to the streets and ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure over the weekend. The race is held each year in Omaha, and across the country, to foster awareness about breast cancer. Andrew Marinkovich was able to help photograph the event to support his fiance, Adrianne, who works for the Nebraska affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Check out images from this year's race.

Malone and Co photographer Mike Malone was shooting at a community garden for Omaha By Design recently when this not so little spider caught his eye.

While in Chicago there were no riots or violent protests, unless you watched the Chicago Bears quarterback last Sunday, but we got out of town before that debacle. The Malone and Co crew did manage to pick up some images around the town, including a trip to the Chicago Art Institute. We saw some interesting photography by Richard Misrach and Jeff Wall.

Andrew Marinkovich and Sam Carter spent two days shooting lawn mowers in town. This was the only stunt shot we got. Matt attempts an Evil Knievel jump from the trailer to the back of the truck. He's safe, and pulled off the jump with no injuries. Thanks to the crew from the mowing company for putting in the time in the hot sun- and for all the cleaning that was done to keep the mowers looking great.

The crew at the studio was inspired by the outfits Jaime O'Bradovich and Ben Drickey wore a couple weeks ago, so we decided to have a dress up day. Best dressed has to go to Hillary Sinn for her Susie homemaker look. Mike Malone and Geoff Johnson share the most fashionable photographer award. Patty Malone gets the best look of the 50's decade. Nice style!

Assistant Sam Carter and Husband recently vacationed in beautiful Costa Rica...
Let's just say it was a "once in a lifetime experience". From the mountains of San Ramon to the white sandy beaches of Santa Teresa, we saw it all. We traveled through the central part of the country all the way to the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. The mountains were covered in lush rain forests with amazing tropical birds, and three toed sloths. We stayed three nights at an Eco-lodge and culinary school called The Inn at Coyote Mountain. It was an amazingly relaxing retreat. It is nice to get away from technology every once in a while. We then headed off to our second destination. After driving for miles (on treacherous unpaved roads) in our 4x4 rental, and traveling across the ocean via car ferry, we arrived in Santa Teresa. This was a surfer's haven. Dreadlocks and ATV's! Here we stayed at Latitude 10° Jungle Beach Resort. This resort is another Eco-loge consisting of secluded bungalows right in the middle of the jungle and on the edge of a private beach. the water was amazingly warm and at night the howler monkeys were amazingly loud. The people we met were great as well. There is not enough time in the day to share all the experiences we had in just one short week! It was a vacation well worth the wait.

We're fortunate enough to get kudos from our clients from time to time. Often the compliments talk about the positive vibe or how easy we are to work with or how amazing the images look after Kate Heller does her magic. This is great but we also like to make sure that the people helping us, the talent or freelancers, are part of that vibe. I call it Flowing Both Ways, meaning we need to take care of our crew just as much as our clients. So when Rhonda Dale, who did a bang up job as talent last week, sent me this email it felt good that she appreciated our approach.

Mike and Team,
I want to express my appreciation for such a professional shoot on the Gold's Gym project in Austin. I was treated cordially throughout the day by your staff, and you and put me at ease throughout the shoot. What a pleasure to work with your entire team of professionals. I look forward to another opportunity to be involved with your firm and hope that you have many assignments here in Austin . . . Texas . . . the Southwest.
Warm regards from the Lone Star State,

If this were the Bourne Ultimatum this number would have a double meaning, but at Malone and Co this is the number of images Andrew Marinkovich shot last week in a 3.5 day shoot in Miami. It's a new record. We got a lot done thanks to Patty, Angela, and Ann along with stellar editing from Michelle! Thanks to Ken for being our Italian liaison at Randazzo's, the best Italian joint I've eaten at south of Omaha, NE. Great work to the whole crew- get some rest and regroup for Austin this week! If this number is a secret code for anything else, let me know.

It took a lot of people to help coordinate our Miami shoot. Thanks to all those who put in the extra time and sweat to produce the great images! It wasn't easy holding up traffic, finding people to move their cars, and waiting for the clouds and sun to align, but after all the work in the hot sun, we are back for more this week as Patty, Angela and Andrew finish the job. Thanks to Lora for taking so many great BTS (Behind The Scenes) photos.

Torchwerkers Ben Drickey and Jaime O'Bradovich got stuck in a 70's time warp today. Luckily they had been growing out their facial hair to polish off the look. Nice work fellas. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Here at Malone and Co. it is not unusual to put our equipment to the ultimate test and beyond. We are absolutely in love with our Magliner cart! It is truly every assistants companion. It can handle your heaviest load, walk you through the tightest situation, and it will keep going when you feel like quitting. Also, when your Magliner is feeling low, all it needs is a little pump. That's what I call low-maintanance! This friend is tried and true and has never let us down!

Throughout our journey we have traveled through many train stations. Gare de Lyon in Paris is incredible and of course I had to shoot it. This image is actually a combination of 2 images stitched together. It gives you a sense of how large the station is.

All good things must come to an end. We have spent the last week in Nice exploring the French Riviera. The colors here are truly amazing, so I thought I would share some of my favorites from our journey. Tomorrow we leave for Paris before heading home on Tuesday.

Saturday was Bastille Day in France, which marks the storming of the Bastille, or prison, by the revolutionaries. It is France's national holiday and we celebrated with about 3 million people near the Eiffel Tower. As you'll see in the gallery, the Metro wasn't the easiest form of transportation that night!

We're leaving tomorrow for Nice and thought I would share a few images from our stay in Paris. This city is great for just roaming around and shooting. I had to bust out the Lensbaby for a few shots to give 'em a little more interest.

Andrew Marinkovich got to photograph the Ben Harper concert at Stir Cove over the weekend and it quickly lead to the most memorable show to date. After showing the tour manager a book of my Ben Harper images from previous venues- he hooked up back stage passes and we got to meet the band. Most exciting-I now have an opportunity to sell the book I made, at future shows! (Sorry for drawing on your face Ben)

Andrew Mairnkovich was on the sideline yesterday at Rosenblatt Stadium for the NCAA College World Series. The fans in the outfield got a little careless with their inflatable doll and the ground crew seized the goods. Thankfully the players did not get distracted.

The crew at Malone and Company often have a hard time separating work and pleasure and I'm no exception. I created this image yesterday while on our annual family trip to Kauai, HI.
The pano is from Hanalei Bay on the north side of the island. I've been to the bay well over 10 times
and the clouds and rain created by Kauai's unique phenomenon known as orographic lifting have made for dramatic images each time. Enjoy!

Have you ever thought about what you would look like if you transformed your face. Results vary- but see if you can pick out some of the Malone and Co crew after transformation. For best results use a straight on shot of your face. Transform your face.

I think at some point in every one's life, they have had some ugly piece of furniture they stole from their parents house. In my case, it is a chair my folks bought in Boston around 1967. For years I have stated, "It's hideous! But it is so comfortable I can't get rid of it."

Our guys here at Malone & Co will do anything to get the shot they have invisioned in their minds. Nothing is off limits! Andrew Marinkovich shot through the hoops at a college in Omaha, NE for something Fresh and New. This is a small glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes on a typical day with any one of our photographers. Life as an assistant is never dull!

With a little help from the Edgerton Explorit Center, the Metro Photo Club got a lesson in high speed photography. Using a rifle, a flash and sound timer, with a little luck-I got some a few frames of exploding eggs. Things got a little messy...but it was worth every shot!
