A few months ago @thelocal.to got a promising pitch from a writer with bylines in whole bunch of reputable publications—The Cut, The Guardian, Dwell, Architectural Digest, etc. Then I started investigating. Here's a story about fabulists in journalism's AI slop era. thelocal.to/investigatin...

This piece is still the one I'm most proud of in my career. (And @chloeellingson.bsky.social's photos are gorgeous.)

"Speight Rasees collapsed on Nov. 28. The next day, during the first race, two-year-old Mad Chatter had to be euthanized." @nickhunebrown.bsky.social 📸: @chloeellingson.bsky.social @thelocal.to thelocal.to/breakdown-at...

I spent the summer going back to Woodbine over and over again, often with photographer @chloeellingson.bsky.social, who gorgeously captured life on the backstretch and in the grandstands. Give the piece a read, then read the rest of @thelocal.to's Wild Wild City issue! thelocal.to/breakdown-at...

A string of horse fatalities at Woodbine last fall brought attention to a sport that often exists in its own bubble. @nickhunebrown.bsky.social and photographer @chloeellingson.bsky.social go to the backstretch and come back with a portrait of a troubled industry.

When @nickhunebrown.bsky.social writes, he doesn't give you a story. He takes you on a JOURNEY. Brilliant piece and photos by @chloeellingson.bsky.social from @thelocal.to thelocal.to/breakdown-at...

Excellent photojournalism and illustration has always been part of The Local’s DNA. By bringing in @chloeellingson.bsky.social as our first Visuals Editor, we’re doubling down on our commitment to that work. thelocal.to/chloe-elling...

I'm thrilled to share that I'm joining @thelocal.to as Visuals Editor! The Local has long been a favourite client of mine as a freelancer. I could not be happier to be part of the team, and to work with this city's incredibly talented photographers and illustrators. thelocal.to/chloe-elling...

Photo people! If you're new here, like me, this is a helpful list of photographers on Bluesky. bsky.app/profile/did:...

I photographed Lynn Riordan, who has fought for transgender rights in decades past. "Now I'm 66," she told me at Pearson Airport. "I just want to live my life." Thank you @raminrahimian.bsky.social Story by @raheemfh.bsky.social www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/t...

Photographers, I'm adding people to my Photo People list every day. I'm unsure if there’s a limit, but I'll keep expanding the list until I’m stopped. Feel free to DM me if you want to join. It's a great way for newcomers to discover new imagemakers on Bluesky. Please RT. Thanks!

Lynn Riordan was already in the sky when President Trump signed an executive order claiming the 66-year-old transgender woman didn’t exist. She said she was leaving the U.S. to explore asylum options. I wanted to know why she didn’t feel secure in S.F. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/t...

My most delicious assignment in recent memory. @rebeccaga0.bsky.social

I contributed photography to @wencyleung.bsky.social story in @thelocal.to about the prohibitive obstacles faced by internationally educated nurses trying to practice in Canada, and what the rest of society loses while they wait to apply their skills.  thelocal.to/immigration-...
