Practical Photography
Professor and Chair Rob Briber (materials science, UMD) tends to freeze up when I ask him to pose for a picture, but when I got him to goof off a little in the new lab he asked me to shoot, I was able to catch him as I usually see him.
Advantages of using my mirrorless camera with a prime pancake lens include the ability to operate it with one hand, and to get it into tight places a big DSLR can’t go.
What do you do if a lab is a bunch of computers in cubicles? Throw one of their models up on the professor's huge LCD and use it as a backdrop!

BUDGET + NECESSITY = "LET ME GET MY CAMERA."
I am not a professional photographer, but at the University of Maryland, the reality is that I have to take care of most image needs for my departments. Over the years, I've learned the challenges associated with shooting in laboratory settings. I try to be casual and creative.
TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY
As a hobby, I enjoy travel photography (nature, underwater). To see my personal work and photo books, please visit fayelevine.shutterfly.com.
