Headshot

Some photographers like to take pictures of people whose faces are obscured. But what if you really like faces? What if that is the only part of a human you wish to see?

Time to flip the script.

Rain or Shine

Had an itch to go out and shoot yesterday. My friend Cody, who is also a photographer, came with me to have some fun.

As should be standard for any photographer searching out new locales, we trespassed onto some interesting looking property that seemed relatively …

Creativity

Last night I had the pleasure of attending the first meeting of a group of designers from around the area at my friend's newly launched design agency. After the initial meet and greet we all sat down in a circle to share who we were, and some of our desires as creative …

Busy

What have I been up to:

April 1 (no joke!)- I agreed to journey to Iraq in September to photographically document an organization called "Buy Shoes. Save Lives."

April 8- The May/June issue of Relevant Magazine came out. I shot photography for a six-page spread in this …

My online portfolio is now up and ready for viewing. Please stop by and peruse through my current work.

I want to thank all of my friends and clients who have helped me get to this point. It is hard to believe that not even a year ago I had just purchased my first camera.

Attributing things to God

When I was younger my parents sent me to one of those Youth Evangelism Conferences (as many of you no doubt were forced to attend as well) and I remember a comedian telling a story. It went something like this:

"There was a man who had gotten out of bed in the middle …

"Christian" Protesters

Tuesday May 22, 2007. Jerry Falwell's funeral is held at Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Although a somber occasion, the air is abrasive with the prattling of reporters, the clicking of cameras, and the shouts of protestors. The following are …

Extended Photography Exposure Experiment

I shot these pictures with the exposure set at 30 seconds and the aperture at 22.

As you can see in this one I was in the background spinning a flashlight around my friend's body.

I liked this one the best.

I am just beginning to understand how …
