A Holga in Paris


I pulled this out of a pile of Holga negatives from our trip to Paris a few years ago. It’s totally one of those magic Holga images that are born from forgetting to advance the frame between shots. Looking at this just make me want to shoot with the Holga more and in fact I think that I’m going to load it right now and do just that.

The Faces of Dave


I shot these just under a year ago but I’ve been messing around with them here and there ever since. I really cannot share just one of them because I feel that they’re extremely strong together. I kind of see them as a series of photographs taken during a prison interview of a serial killer just days before going to the chair!

Savanna Russell



I shot this a few weeks before we left town for my friend Savanna Russell’s new CD. We had been talking about working together for some time but we were waiting for just the right time I guess. I think it was worth the wait.

The Amazing Dr Dave



I’m taking a small break from sharing photographs from the trip but there are more to come. I took this just before we left for Europe and I’ve been dying to share it with everyone. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this portrait. Dave is an amazing man! He’s a actor, dancer, artist and dear friend.

Eiffel Tower



This trip to Paris marks my third visit and every time I’ve photographed the Eiffel Tower and I think that this trip’s might be my favorite of them all. The symmetry of the structure is stunning in one and I love how it looks like its flying high in the sky in the other.

Passy Cemetery – Paris, France

We are home!!!

Matt and I both love Paris and were really sad to have to leave but its always feels so good to come home. It was so wonderful to hold the kitty and she was so excited to see us and then there’s always sleeping in our own bed after staying in hotels for the past three weeks.

On our last day in Paris we visited another cemetery and was just like Père Lachaise it overflowing with inspiring. Here are a few of the photographs from Passy…

Now that we’re back I think that I’m going to continue photographing cemeteries and see what kind find inspiration I can find in American cemeteries.

Père Lachaise Cemetery - Paris, France








Père Lachaise is famous around the world for holding tombs and burial sites for the likes of Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison to name a few, but that aside there is endless beauty and art within its wals.
