After the demise of the weekly paper CiN Weeky where i served as a full-tme staff photographer I re-started my freelance business as David Sorcher Photography, taking on a wide variety of assignments, but focussing mainly on journalism, events and live music photography. My clients have included The Cincinnati Enquirer, Metromix, Cincy Magazine, Cincinnati Profile, and Hubbard Interactive (was Bonneville).

CiN Weekly
Staff Photographer
As the only photographer for a very busy arts and lifestyle weekly I undertook a large variety of very diverse assignments, shooting everything from tabletop products to high fashion with a whole lot of events, environmental portraiture, food and human interest stories in between. My responsibilities included producing about 90% of the photographic content for the full color paper, toning and otherwise preparing the work for print, contacting and maintaining a relationship with freelancers and meeting extreme to insanely tight deadlines on a regular basis. I worked closely with writers and page designers and even wrote a few stories myself as well as shooting video for on-line content. I also built countless on-line galleries of the local scene events our freelancers were shooting as well as extended galleries of my own work from the weekly cover stories we produced.
