So during the Raleigh leg of my NC trip, I snapped photos of the wonderful Alex + Renee on their wedding day. So many of my favorite people were in attendance – the night was definitely a highlight of the trip. Here are a few shots from the day. (Attendees, you should be receiving a [...]

It’s 2:25 a.m. on Thursday, and I am still hiding out after a week in New Bern. Jet lag apparently will not fade, as I am finding myself up very late and having trouble waking up prior to noon. I’ve stayed pretty quiet this week, other than shooting a wedding and taking approximately a million [...]

I’ve learned a few things about blogging in the past year. 1) Don’t ever write posts about how you’ll “finally start blogging again.” 2) Film shooting and my style of blogging does not mix. Don’t get me wrong, I love film and I will continue shooting with it, but film rolls take weeks to finish [...]

I’ve finally developed more film!! I’ve been procrastinating on the developing front (as it’s so expensive) – the only reason I have these photos are because Aaron stole the rolls from my purse and had them developed for me. I cannot complain. Stories below. This is a double view of the lovely weather we’ve been [...]

Hey folks! Man, it’s been a while. It’s funny how, two years ago, I’d freak out if I missed a day of blogging. Now I’m lucky to have one post per month. That said… I’m alive, I promise. In fact, I’ve made a few life adjustments that allow me get back to my love of [...]

I’m really into film right now. I’m finally getting the hang of my Yashica Mat (which I’ve only had since Christmas), though I’m realizing that horrible eyesight + manual focus = lots of out-of-focus photos. Might be time for me to get hip and invest in some glasses. Here are some photos from recent adventures [...]

A few more shots from the Yashica Mat…

Last weekend was primarily centered around family-related stuff. For one, Aaron’s family was in town for the weekend, and in addition to that, I was planning to meet my sister on Friday night, for the first time ever. (Background story on that here.) We made plans to meet at Minibar, in my neighborhood. I headed [...]

Last night I went to Oakland in a green jumpsuit. That is all. [^ photo by Mick Frederick]

In fact, I’ve had one my entire life. I just had no idea. Long story short: It was almost four years ago. I was on tour with American Aquarium. We were playing a show at The Evening Muse in Charlotte, NC, with Jeremy Fisher and the North Labrea All-Star Conquistadors (to be specific). I was [...]

Hi all! As I mentioned in my last blog, I’ve made a plan to get healthy again, and will be keeping the interwebs posted as a means of accountability/reason to keep it up. …and by the way, it’s actually working. This has been my process so far: Breakfast: Eggy/protein breakfast before I leave for work, [...]

A coworker recently told me (endearingly) that I am a habitual planner. Funny, I had never sit down to think about it, but I’ll be damned if I am not, in fact, a habitual, borderline-obsessive planner. I make resolution after resolution throughout the year, related to health, productivity, work, life, you name it. I don’t [...]

YAY! Seriously guys, I’ve been wanting a new site forever. The other one looked fine and all, but it was extremely limiting in a variety of ways: 1) I couldn’t post a blog without a photo to accompany it. That’s silly. What if I just want to post a word or two (like this post, [...]
