i don’t wanna always play nice… Last night i was revisiting older shoots that I let lay around on the hard drives. This always seems to yield new images. Which also leaves me wondering why I didn’t process these and release earlier? These images are from January 2017 with an old friend of mine. I…
Terpsichorean Almost a year ago, I was contacted by a follower of mine through Instagram. They lived out in California but were going to be in Austin to visit family soon. Unfortunately we were unable to connect to shoot together over the next 3 or 4 of her visits to Austin. On her most recent…

There’s Something About Misti Thanks to my Instagram account and followers, Misti came across my work and asked if I wanted to work with her when she visited Austin. There was no way I was going to say no. Beautiful tattoo work… and that face. She was in town for a friend’s art show and…
