Nice Guys

Being a “nice guy” is like being an alcoholic, in that you’re never really cured. There’s always that little bit of something in the back of your mind, waiting to jump out and take over your life again. So I speak from personal experience, but hopefully at a distance. It Continue Reading

weekend update

This is one of those instances where the photo isn’t necessarily flattering, but is a wonderful image. Captured Sunday afternoon while enjoying caffeine in the park. It’s a bit frustrating. There were like 6 epic things that happened this weekend that I can’t or won’t talk about publicly. Poo. But Continue Reading

We are here to…

We are here to ruin ourselves and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and die. The storybooks are bullshit. Now I want you to come upstairs with me and get in my bed! — Nicolas Cage to Cher in Moonstruck

May Day celebration at the Inverted Ark. Including a May Pole dance or two, which inevitably involved strapping someone to the pole. (Insert your own joke here). I have been pleasantly surprised lately, by two people I recently connected or reconnected with. I am horrible — completely useless — at Continue Reading

2006 shoot

Wow… it’s been 4 years since this shoot. Was just cataloging my backup drive, and browsing the import. Don’t think I ever highlighted this image before. Despite MANY, MANY issues with that shoot, I still like this image. (OHMYGAWDITSSHANNONAGAINWHATDOESTHATMEAN?!?!?!)

Great Falls

Wow… it’s been almost a month since I posted anything. Oopsie. Plenty of things to write about, but I’m not in the mood. Thought I would just leave you with a photo. Great Falls National Park. Dave and I went out there easter sunday. The picture doesn’t really do justice Continue Reading

lovenox

I just threw away $600. Sort of. I finally tossed out my leftover Lovenox syringes. After paying $1,200 for the full prescription, (no insurance), I had some difficulty with the idea of throwing away half of them when I didn’t need them. I knew there was no way I’d ever Continue Reading

the hat

I was in the mood to write something. But it’s getting late, so I think I will just share a photo from one of last year’s shoots. This girl was wonderful. Very mature, and a natural in front of the camera.

Saturday

I think it’s the sign of a successful night when I get slapped, bitten, and kissed on the cheek by the same woman. That was basically how yesterday wrapped up. I honestly can’t remember the first half of the day. Don’t think I was very productive or anything, then. But Continue Reading
