Shooting (Guns)

This handsome example of an American icon now belongs to me. Now, I'm not a violent fellow, but there is something satisfying about putting a precise hole in corrugated cardboard from 20 yards away.

There is a reason photography and firearms use a lot of the same terminology. The decision to squeeze the trigger or shutter button requires confidence and resolve.

Perhaps digital photography could benefit from lessons learned from .45 caliber ammunition. Every shot costs $.50, so make it count.

Weddings

Finally! I've started shadowing wedding photographers to learn tricks of the trade, eventually so I can make a living as a professional photographer. There's a new section in the Portfolio page to show my wares.

Spring Project

I like to grow my own vegetables. My apartment has limited space, but my table by the window has enough room to start seeds. This year I'll grow tomatoes and bell peppers.

Pizza Man Fundraiser

My friend Leah invited me to the Twisted Fork to help raise money to benefit staff and upstairs tenants of Pizza Man, which burned to the ground late January. Mr. Lucky played music. I took some pictures.
