Biography
I grew up on the coast of Virginia (Newport News), in close proximity to a lot of great historic sites (Yorktown, Williamsburg, Jamestown). I spent my time outside mostly, fell in love with exploring the world, camped almost every weekend with the Boy Scouts and acheived the rank of Eagle Scout.
Then I spent the next four years in the beautiful foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in Clemson, SC.
I am Currently Attaining a B.A. in Professional Photography from the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara California!
Instruments I can play: Trumpet, Guitar, Piano, voice, Steel Drums
I also program electronic music... and I rock.
I love taking photo road trips:
In November of 2006 I completed a portfolio expansion road trip as well as spent Halloween in San Fransisco. This road trip allowed me time to explore Yosemite, Mt. Whitney, I-395, The Pacific Coast Highway, San Simeon, Morro Bay, and Santa Cruz.
In September 2006 I put another 1700 miles on my car and explored the Humboldt Redwood Forest (home of the world's tallest living thing: a 126 yard tall redwood named "Hyperion"), Patrick's Point, Ladybird Johnson Grove, Golds Bluff Beach, and the first 1/3 of the Oregon Coast. I had beautiful light, beautiful camping, and got to use a new camp stove and pots to cook myself lunch and dinner everday and brew my own coffee!
In July 2006 I revisited the Czech Republic, of course spending a good amount of time in Prague... (I spent all of my time in Bohemia). I also went back to Kutna Hora and Cesky Krumlov. (I lived in the Czech Republic on an anthropological trip in 2003). Traveling by train I entered Southern Germany (Bavaria) and lived with my brother in Bamberg Germany for about a week. Then I rented a convertible TDI VW Beetle and drove on the Romantic Road from Wurzberg to Munich. On this trip I managed to climb some incredible limestone faces, see an awesome local czech concert, and watch a Jan Svankmejer film called "The Lunacy" on Strelecky Ostrov in Prague.
In March 2006 I ventured on a 2100 mile excursion through southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, seeing such sites as: Abandoned mines, the continental divide, the Very Large Array radio telescopes), Zuni, Hopi, and Navajo territory, Monument Valley, Glen Canyon, Flagstaff, and I experienced life at 7000+ feet above sea level for about 4 days.
Hmmm, I'm not exactly sure why, I guess I would say those tones just look like film to me. If you shot digital and then altered the color a little bit afterwards, then I could imagine that was shot in digital, but yeah, I dunno, it looks like 800 ISO film, due to the contrast and grain. So did you shoot it digital or film?...
