Lucy in Disguise with Diamonds



While Branden and I were in Austin for SXSW we went to a costume shop named Lucy in Disguise with Diamonds. Both of us tried on a costume. I tried on your basic easter bunny and Branden went with Max from Where the Wild Things Are. I loved mine and honestly considered paying $300 for the piece of crap. I'm still sad I got practical and didn't get it. Especially with Easter being this weekend and all. Does anyone know where I can get something similar for less? It can't be too nice. And shorts are preferred.

Super 8 Panel at SXSW

A few weeks ago, I spoke on a panel at South by Southwest on the Power of Super 8. The conversation was hosted by Phil Vigeant of Pro 8mm, the company who processes and scans all of our film. It was an amazing experience being around so many people who share the same passion and excitement for something that many people think has disappeared.

Enjoy the video below and check out the work from Philip Vigeant (Pro8mm), Adam Garner (Trigger Studios), and Ashley Maynor (Preservation Project Films).

Sarah & Billy (Leica Preview)



The long winter has passed, and I'm so happy to be photographing weddings again. We just got our first batch of film back from Sarah and Billy's Miami wedding. I am pleased with the result. We are still working on the album for this wedding but I wanted to share a few of my favorite frames that I captured on my Leica M6 using Neopan 1600. More to come soon!


Sarah & Billy (Polaroids)



Wedding season is back! I can't begin to express how excited I am about my gigs this year: great locations and remarkable couples.
Here are a few polaroids (captured by my assistant Chase on his Holgaroid) for Sarah and Billy's wedding on the first weekend in March. The wedding was in Miami, and they had a total of 20 guests there. It was an amazing start to the season!



I'm off to New Orleans this weekend for Beth and Josh's wedding.

Birthday Sledding (Super 8)



This Super 8 film may be the worst display of sledding, in the history of sledding. It was captured by Branden at my birthday bash weekend this past November. We woke up on Saturday morning to see the mountain covered in snow. Unfortunately we didn't have anything to sled on and we were forced to improvise.

Fashion Shoot in Flower Magazine!



I am so excited to have worked with the amazing Margot Shaw and the Flower Magazine team on a recent fashion shoot. I was even more thrilled to get the cover image. It was a great chance to do something I rarely do: shoot in my studio space!
Enjoy.
