My upcoming 2 week shoot in northeast China

Posted in Photography, Photojournalism, Travel on April 12, 2011 by William Hooks

I’ll be heading to Shanghai for 3 days during the 4 July week this summer and then flying to the capital of Ganshu Province to document the mountain people there for the provincial government. Both stills and video will be produced, and there is a planned print exhibition in the US for mid-September 2011 located at the Buddist Temple in Hacienda Heights, CA.

As I prepare for this assignment, the equipment  and other items I will take will be discussed here.
