My Lab

i thought i would share a quick, close-up view of the space where i spend a lot of my time. My lab, my studio (if you can call it that), my workspace, and home. these are just glimpses of what i see around me.






















leave it to the photographer in me to put up make-shift flags to block the glare on my computer screen coming from the windows instead of just buying curtains.

this is a CD jenn made our friends. super swell summer, a comp. of everyone's favorite summer songs.
not so happy about this situation.










the Spud Webb poster i had in my room as a kid.(i tend to save things) if you don't know who Spud Webb is..... you better recognize....

picture of a picture.. how original. photo of me by Greg Strelecki



i have had this Fair Poster for quite some time...

HANDS

I seem to be attracted to hands when i am photographing people. Sometimes a persons hands can tell you so much. I have found that hands can project a great amount of emotion.

Today's pictures

Sometimes while i am working i like to take a break from whatever i am doing and search through my image library for old images i may have over looked or never finished working on. i try to edit or work on one or two of these a day when i can. just for the sake of doing something i like, or feel like working on. I figure there is a place for every image.... somewhere....



These were shot a while back while I was assisting at a wedding in Atlanta for my friend, and fellow photographer Justin Evans. http://justinevansphotography.com/
There are so many situations like these where I never really get a chance to really absorb the images at the time they were shot. I usually end up finding them, and enjoying them much later.

yesterday_the dog gets a bath

i thought i would share a few images i snatched while jenn was washing scout. we have been using this kick-ass soap called shampoochie. they are a company out of north georgia. it makes scout smell like a hippie, but a very clean fresh-smelling one. scout loves it... anyway, here is my "ode to shampoochie". just hanging out while jenn bathes my bitch.....
