Boxy Head Outtakes

For some odd reason I thought it would be cool to put a box on my head and take a photograph. It then became extremely addicting. Enough so that I’ve actually decided to turn this concept into a photo series. You can view the series on my flickr page. This will be an ongoing series [...]

The Finding of the Forbidden Treasure

Here are some outtakes from a shot for a flickr group (Mission24) on the topic “forbidden”. I decided to go with a forbidden treasure root. The real reason here is that I have really wanted to try using an object to block a flash that would output directly on me while being hidden from the [...]

Self Portrait Outtakes

A Photographic Journey of Loneliness

Just recently I decided to shoot loneliness for an entire week. I wanted to shoot many different kinds of loneliness.

Lacking Vision

Lately I’ve felt a creative lull. I’ve been working on my Picture A Day project now for over 6 months. I have yet to miss one single day. I feel proud of that fact, but I also feel like I’m in a bit of a rut. When I first started this project I saw my [...]
