one of my favorite songs of all time is etta james’ “i’d rather go blind”. i recorded a cover of it three years ago, and you can click on this picture to download it.
etta, thanks for this song.
as a friend of mine put it,
sleep heavy, sweet thang.
k first is a few 4×5 shots that i kinda like
_____
and here’s a few color shots i took on my hasseblad.
no, i didnt take these on my iphone. this is the real version of instgram, it’s called ‘an actual camera’.
and here’s a little series that i might expand later. its just a cloudy, rainy point loman horizon and a red umbrella out of focus in the foreground. i might do 100 different photographs of this or something.

and then here’s a black and white that i’m really down with.
so brent texted me “hey man. i’m in LA. we’re playing the fair. it’d be great to see you. bring your camera” and all that stuff. so i did. and here are a few favorites from the night. it’s always fun shooting these guys.

i don’t do wedding photos, let’s just get that out there. but if you’re a good friend and an all around sweet brother, i’ll take your dude pics. case in point: ben rogers.
this was a pretty fun morning. i got to take pictures of all these studs in their skivvies; i’ve got so many new desktop backgrounds to choose from. anyway, here are a couple favorites. my favorite of the favorites is the picture of all the guys on the swings. and this picture of all the guys with the st. bernard we borrowed from that lady.
so yea, for all the groomsdudes, click on this picture of ben and ethan opening the champy to download all the pictures from the morning.
my grandfather was a gosh dang champ.
my uncle just found an old demo recording of his big band from the 60′s. we didn’t know there were any recordings of this band. it’s unbelievable stuff.
click on this picture to download the 3 songs. and then listen to them.
