Well, it looks like this weekend is going to be all about photography… for the most part. This week a new shipment of ISO 400 film came in so I need to do some test shooting with the 400 speed film in order to know how to expose it best with my Diana camera. [...]
The other night I got a little red envelope in the mail. The kind of “red” envelope that contains a “dvd” I don’t wanna mention any names or anything(since they’re not paying me for the ad!) but it starts with an “N” and ends in a “etflix”!
Anyway I’ve been on a photography kick in a [...]
In April I had the chance to shoot with Ashleigh one last time before she moved back to her home 5000 miles away from Hawaii. I would say that I am fortunate to have met her, to have known her, and to have captured in photographs. She has been a influence on my [...]
Over the past few months, I’ve started to notice a shift. I don’t see it as a shift in how I make image or even I how I think about making images. Its more of a shift in how I see myself as a photographer. This shift came about because of several events that have [...]
During my last shoot, I took a few shots at the beginning of the shoot with my new 50mm lens but then switched back to my standard 18mm-135mm lens for the rest of it. I wanted to test out the lens and see how it captured nudes. What I didn’t want was to spend an [...]

Brooks Jensen
(1954- )
I just thought it was cool quote [...]
I’m thinking about putting together a group of people to go out on photo hunts. The idea is that we would pick a cool place where we would all meet. And then we’d walk around together taking pictures, talking pictures, and comparing what we’re seeing. It could be a hike in the woods or maybe [...]
This weekend I was invited to shoot with a friend of mine as a second shooter. This gave me the opportunity to play with some new ideas without the pressure of really nailing my shots. Of course you always want to strive to get the best shots you can but at the same time, it’s [...]
Well September was a crazy month as I wrote earlier. I’m glad that I was able to do the shoots and work with the models I got to work with. Now it’s time to sit back and figure out what I learned so I can avoid making the same mistakes twice.
The month started out with [...]
Well I got the invite to be on Zivity! Yay! I’m so stoked. For those of you who may not know, Zivity is turning social networking on it’s ear right now! Zivity is a social networking site which showcases beautiful images of beautiful women. Their goal is to promote female [...]
