I have been behind the...

Good morning everyone. I thought I would do a quick update since it has been so long since I last said hello.

This outbreak of Covid across the globe has been crazy. I have been able to get a lot of work done for my new job, which is good, a lot of lectures wrote. Been going out on 8-9 miles walk/runs per day, still...

Yep, you read that right. There is a new article out about yours truly, from KC Studio Magazine, and I am very proud about this one. It is fantasticly wrote and the image that was taken for it (of me) is amazing. Please click on the link and let me know what you think after reading.

So, yesterday on a walk with Sam, I decided to take my camera just for the fun of it and see if I could get just a shot of her since it was a beautiful day outside.

Yep, that is a photo of me from today's daily walk (since the entire state is on a "stay-at-home" order...only bit of outdoors I get anymore).

Understandably so, us Teachers are not. SO, since I have already been off for a week (We got out a week earlier than everyone else), looks like my normal schedule...

Because of Covid-19, my school has been closed for at least two weeks. This is just the second day of the layoff and it is already driving me fucking crazy. So let's talk people...share stories, start conversations, send photos, doesn't matter. The internet is a safe distance to keep and not spread Covid-19...so lets engage on here. I'll start.

As I sit here, in shorts...

Hey everyone...so it has been a little bit of time since the last time that I have been able to post anything, but I am back and happy to say that I have had the chance to do some new work for the "We Are All We Have Tonight" collection.

Today I was out scouting locations for another We Are All We Have Tonight shoot in Kansas City, Missouri. This location was off of 40th and Troost. And as soon as I got out of my car with my Nikon, this guy who looked homeless at his little squatter's camp, came over to me and started talking. He introduced himself to me, with his ID,...

So, this past week I was visiting my buddy Jay at the Lawrence Community Photo Studio, in Lawrence Kansas, and he was in the process of doing some wet plate photos and asked if i would like to sit for one. I jumped at my chance to have this done, a process that was famous in the 1850s, and I can say that I am...
