 I really like Georgia's father's fresh egg card. ============   The Koralja Brothers: Seeing Triple One of my first Geographic assignments was on the great state of New Jersey, and it is partly due to this story that I now live there. Often the more familiar a place is, the harder it is to shoot, as editors often have preconceived expectations and assumptions of what exactly the story should be about. New Jersey, with its long list of stereotypes, was a perfect example of this. I was one of three photographers to work on the shoot and ended up spending six months covering every inch of the state. On one foray along the edge of the Hudson River I ran into a local paper?s piece about Jersey City?s finest, with a picture of the Koralja brothers, triplet cops. I contacted the Jersey City police department about their ?triple threats? and soon met with Andrew, Joseph and Robert. I spent most of a day hanging out with them as they made their rounds in their squad car, photographing them always as a threesome. As they day passed, the money shot still eluded me, until we drove back to the garage where the officers parked their cars for the night. As they pulled into the garage, I saw my shot. The big overhead doors opened, providing a light similar to a huge softbox, casting shadowless illumination over the front windscreen of the patrol car. I asked all three brothers to sit in the front seat with the red and blue lights flashing. I shot quickly from the ladder I keep in the back of my pick-up, shooting the entire roll. In all 36 frames, their expressions never changed. The portrait was published in a 36-page story in the Geographic ? New Jersey: A State of Surprise. While I?m sure I added a few more to the long list of Joisey jokes with the one about the drunk who saw triple while being arrested, the Koraljas went on to land an ad for Seagrams VO. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/pho ... -policemen-yamashita-pod/ Sadly, just a few years ago... http://www.nj.com/ocean/index.ssf/201 ... _in_a_tuckerton_fire.html
