Reporter Nicole Doll, on Portland Oregons FOX ( ! ) affiliate did a story on my Unmarked project — I was honored to have my work serve as the conclusion of her impressive (and incredibly well researched) multi-part series.
My solo exhibition was reviewed by Robert Raczka for the Pittsburgh City Paper in an article titled “Photographer Stephen Chalmers captures the snowbirds and desert rats of the Southwest.”

I was delighted to be a professional portfolio reviewer at the 2013 National Conference of the Society for Photographic Education, ‘Conferring Significance: Celebrating Photography’s Continuum’. I was able to view the work of some really great artists, including Deborah Orloff, Tomiko Jones, Mark Eshbaugh, Joshua Dudley Greer, Kay Westhues, and Dan Snow.
My colleague, Prof. Christiansen Erb, and I brought a number of our star students to the 2013 National Conference of the Society for Photographic Education. The conference, with the theme ‘Conferring Significance: Celebrating Photography’s Continuum’, was at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago from March 7-10.

I gave a gallery talk at my solo show at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts. Really great crowd, who asked super questions (and even sent me a number of e-mails after the lecture). Thanks Pittsburgh!
…at least according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

The artwork by the students of a local art teacher, whose spouse took a workshop from me, just won a bunch of awards. He’s going to use this success to (attempt to) convince his spouse into buying Photoshop and Lightroom for him….
Wowser — I was excited to see that my photo was one of the contemporary images included in the National Public Radio (NPR) Picture Show review of the Looking at Land exhibition — along with Timothy O’Sullivan (one of my photo heroes) and Ansel Adams. The review, “What’s The Landscape Of Modern Landscape Photography?” by Claire O’Neill was published 13 November, 2012.

Christopher Rolinson of Point Park University and I co-chaired the first-ever Open Show event in Pittsburgh. Open Show is an international organization that has featured 1,200 Open Show events in 15 countries over the past three years. The event was a great success, and the conversation spurred by the great photography continued on into the night.
