The Holiday Print

Waiting for Iron Man, 2010. Photograph by Greg Miller

Two days ago, I sent out my holiday prints, now something of an annual tradition. I started sending 8×10 contact prints out to close friends, family and clients in 1996. It was a picture I took of a woman named Valérie, a French Canadian selling Christmas trees on 3rd Avenue & 32nd St. This year, the image is a couple from my series, “Waiting for…” — pictures of people waiting for drive-in movies to begin. This year and last, are digital prints. A respite (I hope) from printing them traditionally, however, inkjet prints are growing on me.

It is an interesting edit of images looking back over them , so I thought this would be a good opportunity to post some of the cards from over the years.
