I sometimes have commercial jobs and Canal Barge was one of the first paying jobs when we moved to New Orleans. Lately they have been refurbishing their tugboats, so when they are finally done I take some images for their records. Now usually I have to do this in less than an hour cause these are hard working folks and they do not like to be sitting in dock, since that means they are not making any money. There's people running all around the boat so you kind of just have to shoot what you can, not much time to think about it. Hey, wait that's kind of like shooting weddings and photographing the Dalai Lama! This boat is a bit different, there is a female captain in charge, something not seen too often down here on the river. Usually when photographing the crew, they are not one for photos, they would rather just work and get done what is needed instead of stopping for photos. Well Kat's crew is not like this, it took just a few images to get some emotions out of this crew, and they seemed to have a good time with the shoot. I deliver all color images to Canal Barge, I toned the images here for my own collection. Nikon and Leica images. Enjoy. http://zoeicaimages.com/TugboatCaroline/ Chris Williams www.zoeicaimages.net www.rebirthworkshops.com 504-231-6261
