Don’t Forget to Breathe
Don’t Forget to Breathe I try to give very little direction during my shoots. I like to let the people I work with live within a real environment. To capture what they are feeling and experiencing at that very moment. I’ve come to realize that what I do isn’t something that can always be directed…

That Post I Keep Talking About For the past 3 months (or possibly longer; I’ve honestly lost track of time), I have been writing and re-writing this blog post easily a million times now. The first couple thousand drafts read like a pity party and a bunch of really lame as excuses. A couple people…

Slow Down For those that know me, the phrase “Slow Down” has so much meaning to me. I tattooed it on my knuckles less than 12 hours before I got the phone call that grandmother had passed away. The idea came to me as I drove home from a Grieves show, blasting Light Speed as…
Reality. For a moment…
Reality. For a moment… Sometimes my oldest allows me to take her photos. It has been years since she has actually “let” me photograph her in any other way than a sneaky and blurry candid. This is from November of 2014. 4 more months and she turns 11. Blown away daily by how amazing of…
