The Web site is finally here – www.iancurcio.com. After a long wait, many changes and a little bitching between friends – Ryan Clark delivered a product that I’m very excited about and I hope you are too. Please visit it and tell us what you think.

J-Dog

I took my friend Justin with me yesterday to shoot a wedding. It’s the first time I’ve ever worked with a second shooter on one of these – I think it went well.

Moody Black

We’re working on another cover for Link. This one is focusing on the young-artistic movement going on in Spartanburg. I was working with a group but at the end I grabbed some individual profiles. This is Moody Black, a local poet and mentor to young kids – we shot these in Hub-Bub’s Showroom.

I’ve got so many projects going on right now that I am excited about I just wanted to give a little shout!

Nose Picker

chris_evans_02_resize.jpg
I was sent to get an editorial portrait of this actor and told he would be a lot of fun – who would have known he’d have no problem making an ass out of himself. He was a lot of fun and although this one isn’t making it into print, it was my favorite from the session.

Haunted House

If you love my photo blog like a kid loves snow then you've seen this same image set in the evening hours.

Sailors Bench

Still working on this cover. I can’t remember if I mentioned it or not but it’s for a story called “My Favorite Piece” and it’s about people who love their furniture.

Man with Armchair

Once again, hard at work on an upcoming cover.

Freedom

Here’s to teaching our children the meaning of independence. Hand them a fist full of cash and send them off to get their own damn pizza.

Colombian Attitude

ana.jpg
I’ve been working, without really knowing it, on this series of people laying in the street, road, asphalt, ground or wherever. I started out just taking photographs of my children and trying to be more creative and getting something that was way off the mark of traditional portraiture and from there I just kept looking at different places and different people. All people I know and care about in one way or another – more like documentation of friends and family than a conceptual body of fine art.

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline

chad_and_mel_03.jpg
We’re still working on this Halloween issue and a couple of people in the office thought it would be funny to dress up as Britney Spears and Kevin Federline. I’m not sure all of you are feeling me on this one but this is hilarious.

Halloween

katie1_resize.jpg
Still working on this Halloween cover. I don't think this is going to make the final print edition but we had a great time executing it in the studio today.

Lions Tigers Bears - O' My

idao_taxidermy_11.jpg
I'd like to go on the record as saying taxidermy is no job I could do - dead-stuffed animals just freak me out.

I Hear Voices

art_international_16.jpg
I shot this over the weekend on assignment. I had to cover an annual art show, international festival and a football game. It’s the smartass in me no doubt but I just love how she seems so interested in a bunch of kids that don’t really exist.

Frat Boys

wofford_citadel_14.jpg
Not only do I not comprehend the importance of sports as a part of our society – I just can’t seem to wrap my head around frat boys either.

Southern Weddings

0189.JPG
I finished editing yet another wedding last night. I said it before and I’ll say it again – I don’t love to shoot weddings but the pay is very good for the time and work that goes into them. In addition you get to be creative and shoot the way you want to if you set that standard to begin with.

More weddings: wedding1, wedding2, wedding3, wedding4.

Going through the images agian this afternoon, I like them so much I'm posting another.

Roller Derby

This is from a cover shoot we did tonight for Roller Derby. The sweet smell of the 70’s looking skating rink brought back some really good memories from my elementary-school days.

Lunchtime

This is the view I had during lunch today. It looks a lot like Italy but it’s really just downtown Greenville.

God's On Tap

godsbeer.jpg
It's the first time I've seen it but now I know it to be true - God likes it when you meet in dark bars, drink beer and pray with friends.

Spoiled

ethan_and_browniemix.jpg
No he’s not spoiled; his granny just gives him anything he wants. In her defense, I can remember being a kid and always getting to lick the spoon. I remember fighting with my sister about who got to hold the bowl.

You're Out!

furman_wofford_22.jpg
Oh wait, that's baseball isn't it. I could careless about traditional sports in any fashion you want to put them. I simple don't care; I don't watch them, keep up with them or talk about them with the rest of the fantasy heads around. But I stand firm when I say, I do enjoy photographing them. Here’s what I can tell you, it was a Wofford/Furman game and Furman won 35-22.
