I have really been working non-stop to get my portfolio in shape and networking like mad! Check out my links on the right-hand side of the page for links to some of my ongoing projects and portfolio.

Here are some shots from my weekend! Photographing lovely women! Alki Beach Skateboarders Alki Beach Amateur Acrobats (they did land on their feet) And how I feel about my life in general, wonderful yet somewhat inexplicable and crawling toward a zenith with centipede like quickness.

I'm a little busy these days. I am working on some BW nudes in the style of Ed Weston and Robert Mapplethorpe. The latter has become a bit of an obsession lately. I deeply admire the willingness to destroy boundaries. I've always sought to do that in my life and it's only natural that it arises in my creative endeavors. I will have to create a separate site for these, but I will post the link as soon as I have a few shoots completed. I'm thinking two to three weeks. Just in case you... Read Full Story
Ok...I'm a consumer whore. I know. But I just couldn't pass this up, seeing how my Xti is in the shop and Best Buy was willing to let me walk out of the store with a Canon 40d kit with the 70-300 IS USM, tripod and kickass lens bag for no money down.

Luckily, it will only cost about 60$ to clean and fix. However, I wont have my camera until Thursday!!! THE HORROR!!! Luckily, not only did I get some good shots of yesterday's Blue...

Anyone who was still working at 12pm today was cheated. Ha! I left work midday to enjoy the beautiful Seattle weather and to catch the Blue Angels on their pre-performance practice over Lake Washington. The papers all say that Jefferson Park is the best place, but I went down to the somewhat crowded Seward Park and found that the F-18's were buzzing overhead constantly. I had to wait a short time and took a few pictures of ducks, and this Dragonfly, who was an unintended victim of my... Read Full Story
