In the presence of great passion
After a day spent shooting Gustav Meier in the classroom (
"Zen Maestro"), Baltimore photographer Bill Denison knows why conducting students travel from around the world to study with the Peabody Maestro. "It was an honor to be there," says Denison. "I was trying to capture the spontaneity of the interaction and the ephemeral essence of how they related and how the Maestro teaches. I saw a lot of nurturing, and a lot of respect, on both sides. When I'm in the presence of someone who is that free with their passion and energy, I find it very uplifting."
 
TV producers at work
As a contract photographer for the Hopkins Medical Institutions, freelancer Keith Weller knows his way around Hopkins Hospital. That's why he seemed the natural choice to photograph ABC crews at work (
"Made for Prime Time"), during the three-month stint they spent filming for an upcoming TV special about the hospital. "They were very cognizant of their special privilege in documenting Hopkins," says Weller, "and very sensitive to patients."
