Have you ever been in the company of someone that just wants to “hang out”? Having nothing to say or contribute, they are content with status quo? In my mind, they are the equivalent of the color beige. In other words, they are very boring! When searching the soul about my future as a image-maker, a decision was made. That decision was a simple one in theory, but a challenging one in practice. I no longer wanted My images to just “Hang Around”. I want My images to SPEAK!
One of the most important things when creating an image that speaks is to be armed with information about the people you are getting ready to photograph as well as their personality and their relationships. You must deliberately set the stage for this type of imagery. You must begin to think differently to create images that move those who see them. Develop a style that reflects these thoughts and ideas, put your skills to work creating from the heart. You will be amazed at the response! You may find you have just put your finger on what people wanted all along.

My interest in photography goes back as far, if not further, than I can remember. My Grandfather had a thing called a box brownie and i remember being amazed at how it recorded history. I was given a 120 film camera when I was about 10 as evidenced by some black and white photos I recently found of my sister when she was 5 or so - she turned 40 in 2008.
So from recording history, through the passage of an EOS 5 film into digital and moving into a desire to 'make images' rather than take photos, I find myself here.
Photography. "For the thrill of it."
Photography. "It's where life is happening."
Photography. "When time stands still."
Photography. "Maybe it's just about being there again."
