About
Hello. My name is Rob. I'm important. Don't believe me? Ask Google. This is my VIRB page. Please feel free to make yourself noticed.
I live in Midland, Michigan which is home to Dow Chemical and Dow Corning Corporation; the world's leader in breast implant manufacturing. When I'm not working I enjoy photography, web design and spending time with my friends. I have a niece and nephew I love dearly (their parents and grandparents are not too shabby either). I have a degree in broadcasting which is what initially introduced me to photography.

Jason - 1 Month
It has been awhile since I’ve done much work, but I finally got around to finishing my nephew Jason’s 1 month pictures. Wedding season for me is starting up here soon, so I’m getting back into the swing of things.

New Holga: Yippee!
I have always wanted a Holga camera. For those who do not know, Holga’s are a plastic toy pinhole camera that provides images with horrible quality. So, why might one want one? Well, that horrible quality can be uniquely appealing. It shoots film so once I get …

You either have a cold or "The Sleeping Sickness". But that's just my professional opinion. ;)
I know I don't always answer my phone when you call, but I wanted you to know that I love you. Your comment on my post (which I just read this afternoon) was just what I needed to hear at this moment and it has helped me in numerous ways.
Damn, you can be insightful when I least expect it. And I appreciate it. I appreciate you lack of opinion on decisions in my life, and your ability to listen. I think you know that you rock, but I just needed to reiterate that point. You rock.
I love you and thank you for being my friend.

Since our night of debauchery, I have found myself laughing at the things that used to really piss me off. This is my way of saying "Thanks" for letting me get really really drunk and puke all over your home. I think that night restored my sanity.

Unfortunately, I do work on Wednesday, but I am free Friday. Oooo. We could get together on Friday the 13th and watch some seriously bad horror films. What do you think?
Dana, Jun 24, 2007:
Damn boy, you take some good pictures. Maybe one day I can pursuade you to take pictures of me so I can look that good. ;) I was just scrolling through your Flickr account, showing your pics of Madison and the family to the ladies here. They think they are beautiful as well. So if this Best Buy thing doesn't work out, I can always pimp you out as a photographer. ;)

Stop poking me!

Yeah, I am loving this community. I am still just getting the ropes of all of this though. I think if I had more of a programming / artsy background, I would find this network a little more friendly. I don't really know how to customize my page, and because I am so new to this concept (everyone on Facebook is someone I know) I don't know how to go out there and make "new friends" on this format. Eh, no big deal. I guess I will just have to leave all my harassment on your page. Lucky you.
