“Thank You For Your Call” at the DGA Theater
Published July 9, 2011 Documentary , Photography , Photojournalism Leave a CommentTags: bill bowersock, gay rights, shawn nee, social security inequality, Thank You For Your Call
If you’re in the Hollywood area today and have about 4 minutes to spare, “Thank Your For Your Call” is playing at the DGA Theater on Sunset Boulevard. The screening starts at 4:15 and tickets can be purchased at the door for $13. The film was also mentioned in the Los Angeles Times this week:
Though there is lighter fare such as the comedy “Codependent Lesbian Space Alien Seeks Same” in the festival, which begins Thursday evening and continues through July 17, the majority of the features, documentaries and shorts hit political hot buttons for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender audiences, as well as others interested in such issues as gay marriage and anti-gay bias.
Two examples are the short “Thank You for Your Call,” which examines the plight of survivors of same-sex partnerships who cannot collect Social Security, and the documentary “Wish Me Away,” about the fallout from country singer Chely Wright’s decision to come out.

“Like one punch in the face after another”

A big thanks to Armand Emamdjomeh for featuring my work on the Los Angeles Times’ photography blog, Framework. I have to say that reading someone describe my photos as “Like one punch in the face after another” is one of nicest things I’ve ever heard. Those words will keep me motivated.
You can read the interview here, but unfortunately some of the photos that were included in the profile were not shown. So I posted the entire series here. (Which you can see after the jump).

Expired? I Never Had a Flickr Pro Account.
Published May 9, 2011 Photography 3 CommentsTags: discarted, Flickr, shawn nee
Big deal! I gave up my flickr pro account a long time ago, and I still have zero intention of ever uploading more than 200 hundred photos to flickr. For the record, I’m at a hundred right now, which is perfect for me. I’m just wondering why is flickr telling me my pro account has expired when I haven’t had one for more than a year—possibly two.
Has anybody else experienced this before? Is flickr known to have charged credit cards when they shouldn’t have?
The Fauxtog Does It Again

I’ve been called a lot of things in my lifetime, some good and some bad. But after the Espinoza video was released in 2010, a working photographer based in Los Angeles, who I thought was a friend, sent me an email calling me a fauxtog — ouch.
Hate this fauxtog more than the drunkk
So it’s a great feeling when you’re the only photographer to capture the most important moment of the anti-war rally that took place in Hollywood on March 19 — which was the arrests of 11 brave members of Military Families Speak Out for staging a sit-in at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre.
