Against the Grain As the spring light in the afternoons has slowly moved in to the longer and warmer hours of summer, I have developed a slight obsession with shooting on this small section of wood flooring I acquired during the winter. Fully assembled, the section I have available to shoot on measures roughly 4′…
On A Sunday… Seven years have passed since the first time I had the opportunity to shoot with my friend, Christy. During the course of the shoot we got to catch up on almost a decade of life changes. Kids. Marriage. Growth. Maturity. Christy has been blowing up again in the Texas modeling community. Definitely…
Pieces of You… Pieces of You is a new gallery that focuses on the less staged parts of my shoots. Some of the images date back to when I first started shooting digitally after not having a camera for over a decade. This series is more about real intimacy. About what happens when people disengage…

19 Years and Half the World Away This is my friend, Duncan Ewington. I met him 21 years ago when he was a foreign exchange student from Tasmania that ended up staying with our friend Jason. This past weekend was the first time I have seen him in 19 years. The minute I heard he…
Back to the Basics This is the first frame I shot from an impromptu and short shoot I had with Cassandra on Sunday. She had an MUA and photographer cancel on her last minute and was still in shooting mode. We met up and quickly threw together a simple concept and literally drove 2 blocks…
