Every summer for over ten years Paul and Leasha have taught at the Toscana Photographic Workshops. If you want to have a good time learning photography in the Tuscan hills, explore great food & drink and hang out with Paul and Leasha. We are teaching July 22-28th. Sign up for one of the best workshops you will ever take.
This video documents the making of the image of “Ilaria” featured above and was created at the workshops in 2011. Check out Paul in action, and hopefully experience this in person summer 2012.
Through the years Paul has been working with Charlie Trotter on a large variety of projects. They have worked on several videos, magazine shoots and books. The book “Charlie Trotter’s Desserts” won Paul the James Beard Award.
This is the final year of the famous restaurant by Charlie Trotter, and we hope to be doing many more shoots (and eating more meals) as this fine establishment goes into the home stretch. To celebrate a fantastic collaboration Team Elledge thought it would be fun to show some of the action behind a photo shoot with Chef Trotter. Enjoy…

We are excited for this Friday night, as it will be the opening of a group show named “KIN”. KIN is an exhibition of photographic works depicting groups of kindred souls, whose basis of kinship seeks to broaden the very definition of the word. Focusing largely on youth culture, KIN explores some of the ties that bind us: family, neighborhood, sport and music.

Leasha will have two bodies of work, “Childhoods Lost and Found” and NEW work titled “Fight Night” (which has the studio jealous, it is so Great). Paul will show highlights from his series “Another Saturday Night”. Come on out see the work and say hello to Team Elledge.

This month’s image “From the vault” mixes things up by showing another aspect of Paul’s work outside of his well known portraits. For several years Paul and Leasha traveled the world for “Travel and Leisure Golf”. They had the pleasure of visiting exotic countries that were home to some of the finest golf courses, hotels, and restaurants.
This month we feature an image from T &L Golf taken to illustrate the beautiful city of Sydney Australia. It was a rainy day and Paul needed to make the best of inclement weather. Paul with camera, and Leasha with umbrella had to visit many sites that day. The highlight image was taken in the center of Sydney in Hyde Park. A stunning location, combined with a long exposure to get gather enough light and add the magic motion of the patrons of the park creating a striking black and white landscape. Enjoy!
