I began my journey in photography nearly 20 years ago as a thought experiment that…

Shades of Paper, a paper and printer dealer based in New Jersey, is now an official sponsor of my workshops and seminars. They will be supplying me with different types of papers from different manufacturers, so that I can have a good sampling of what is currently available in todays market. This will be a great benefit to students taking my printing workshops, and help them make better choices for their own photographic printing.
I have purchased all of my paper from ‘Shades’ for a few years now, and have always received great service and customer support, not to mention the best prices I could find. A big thanks to their owner Jim Doyle, who has always been helpful and available to answer questions or offer his opinions on the products they carry. And a special thanks to Sarah Newman for making this happen!
I found your site on technorati and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed to my Google News Reader. Looking forward to reading more from you.

Just a quick ‘hello’ and a note about Jim Doyle – he is just the best. Early on he was able to get me beta paper for Silver Rag — I still use it these two years later. His customer service is second to none.
Best regards – Dave.
Thanks Dave, I have received many “new” papers from him as well including the excellent Silver Rag…
Love your work, I actually grew up in the Bronx, and spent much time in the University Ave and Fordham Rd section during my high school years – your photos bring back lots of memories, and inspire me to return someday with my camera – keep up the good work!
