Russ Quackenbush Photographs Ashton Kutcher for Zambezi and Pop Chips
"We shot along side video and were originally told we'd have 20 minutes per character. Well, you know how that goes! 20 became 10 minutes and we spent about 6 minutes per character in the end with the producer counting out every 2 minutes. Covering Head, 3/4 and full length for various formats. All in all, I shot just over 24 minutes in a 10hr day. Lucky for me, Ashton brought it and made my job a walk in the park." - Russ Quackenbush

Images That Make You: Laugh
Posted by Workbook on 02/22/2012 — Filed under: Features, Galleries, Headline, Images That Make You..., Photography
By Suzanne Semnacher
Whether an image belongs in an artist's portfolio, in an ad, or on a website often depends on the response the image evokes; is it compelling in some way? One of the best indicators of whether an image engages the viewer is humor. Does it make the viewer laugh? If it does, usually the reason is the image conveys some quirky aspect of the human condition, and the evidence a photographer has connected with his or her subject is right there in the photo.
I put together a gallery of some, but by no means all, of my favorites pulled from Workbook portfolios, but there are many more wonderful and funny images by some really terrific photographers on the Workbook website.

Russ Quackenbush for CDW
Russ Quackenbush felt confident that the first phase of the CDW shoot had gone well. It was a big job, shot in two phases with 30 ads in all, plus an image library. So when a simple handwritten thank you note arrived from Bruce Delahorne, the client on the project, Russ was shocked. He distributed copies of it to his crew and the agency team from Ogilvy & Mather in order to acknowledge all their hard work and successful collaboration. But when the second phase of the job was complete and another handwritten note from Bruce arrived, expressing that Russ and his team had now outdone themselves, he came to a sudden realization: small things have the power to make an enormous difference. He blogs about it here: http://russquackenbush.posterous.com/
