Geekfest 2011, Part 5!
This Geekfest post is, by far, the MOST energetic. Up top, we got luchadores throwing hadouken blasts. Below, there’s evidence of the infamous Kevin Martin prank… and
Geekfest 2011 …more quiet photos.
This is the third set of “quiet” photos from Geekfest2011 and the fourth post, overall. Hey look! it’s
Geekfest 2011, pt. 3
This is the first installment of the quirkier, more energetic stuff I shot from Geekfest 2011. Yeah. I know. What in the world is going on here? This, my friends, is the friggin’

These are photos from a shoot held on the Bryn Mawr School campus in Baltimore, MD, Sunday, June 19, 2011 for The Collective’s “aLIVE” show at the Creative Alliance Fri Aug 26, 8pm. This shoot was a lotta fun and it went exactly how I like em’ to go… a little
Mom and Rick
Since I’ve been in Atlanta I’ve been wanting to make a portrait of Rick and Mom for her Birthday — which is TODAY!!! August 17th!!! Happy Birthday, Mom! They got married last summer, and I really like Rick. He’s a great guy, wonderful to my mom, and they make each other happy. They get each [...]
Sunday Fun Day w/ Luceo’s David Walter Banks & Kendrick Brinson!

David has a “non-photo friend” in Ashville who sends him weekly photo challenges. They showing off how crazy their weekends were via photo texts.

Backyard Photoshoot: Luceo’s David Walter Banks
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander, am I right? …yeah. I know. I just called Kendrick a goose. She’ll probably have a few choice words for me. This is… uh, her gander, I guess? David Walter Banks. They’re both founding members of Luceo Images. …and
Dr. Logan King, Equine Vet
Dr. Logan King, Equine Veterinarian, and I are long time college friends. — which is surprising considering I forgot his name the first three, maybe four, times we met. Luckily I redeemed myself by remembering every other fact about him. He’s valedictorian of his high school, pre-vet, loves grindcore. …I even remembered the layout of [...]
Kendrick Brinson
I had night time a photo shoot with the lovely lady of Luceo, Kendrick Brinson Sunday, August 7, 2011, in her and David Walter Banks‘s backyard.
Keri Wiginton’s 30th Birthday Pool Party
Keri Wiginton’s husband Jeff Kidder and her best friend Elizabeth “Lori” Cline celebrate Keri’s 30th birthday party at her brother Kyle and sister-in-law Christina Wiginton‘s house in Marietta, GA Sunday, July 31, 2011. Keri’s on the right, by the way. So… I decided it might be fun if I turned the day into
After 33 years I’m Still A Kid
Instead of crashing on someone’s couch or …worse yet, a bathtub, for my 33rd birthday in Athens, GA, I decided to spring for a hotel room at the Holiday Inn Saturday, August 6, 2011. So, while I was waiting for Logan King and Melissa Holmes to get ready for dinner, I made some …uh, self [...]

Neil Hamburger Last night (March 14, 2011) The Ottobar hosted a night of comedy, featuring Neil Hamburger, Kenny “K-Strass” Strasser, “Major Entertainer” Mike H, and comedy duo Dan and Alex. aaaaaand I went! — with my friend Monica. It was HILARIOUS! As I’m sure you’ve noticed… I brought my camera, too. When making pictures at [...]
Blake Andrews’: PISSED!
Flag-laden Simon Penning, age 19, from Guilford, MD, middle, joins other Preakness-goers and uses the cracks in between the the wheelchair accessible portable toilets to urinate. Infrequent rains, beer, and urine, made this particular part of the infield muddier and more pungent than other areas. Blake Andrews recently made a really good and insightful (well, [...]
The Man! The Mystery! THE STROBIST!!!
FASTER THAN A SPEEDLIGHT! ABLE TO GEL SMALL FLASHES STRONGER THAN A VIVITAR 285 …he’s THE STROBIST! My buddy Drew and I used to joke about how mild mannered (yeah right!) David Hobby’s alter ego “THE STROBIST” was a great super hero’s name. And the last time I got to photograph him, I really wanted [...]
1/11 NYC Biz Trip, Pt. 2: The Luceo Kids.
Like I said in the first NYC Biz Trip post, I used the Luceo Altered States gallery opening at 25CPW as a reason to come up and see editors, and vice versa. But as it turned out, I really needed was to hang out with photo friends, like Kendrick Brinson, seen above. — and maybe [...]
The Ghost Snow Cat of My Backyard
I wanted to make a time lapse video of the snow piling up in my backyard (don’t judge me) and look who wanted to be in it? Keep posted for the time lapse video AND for more photos of the neighborhood alley cats. God! I sound like such a lame-o! time lapse…? cat photos…? Whatever. That [...]
A new Christmas Experience.
For the last four years I’ve spent Christmas Day with my girlfriend Jess and her family. And it’s soooo weird to me. You see, I’m an only child. And I was raised by a single mom. …and, to an extent, my grandparents. For a while, my mom and I actually lived with grandparents and my [...]
My Best “Runts” of 2010 pt. 2
The world is funny, isn’t it? Or at lest that how it seems to me. …but then again, I’m the guy who laughs too much during movies. This is the second installment of my Best Runts of 2010. The first is here. Can I first start by saying I can’t stand lifestyle images. You know what [...]
What do you do with a sabotaged assignment?
Draw a mustache! Maia Krapcho, from Columbia, first learned baking at vo-tech school. While she has since moved on to a different career, she finds cake-baking to be a creative outlet. She is photographed in her home kitchen Monday, September 20, 2010. Here’s the Howard County Times’ Go! story. She makes crazy cakes — for [...]
Grant & Marie Are Getting Married
Grant and Marie are getting married! Believe it or not, but this was shot in a Gaithersburg, MD subdivision — not on a magical hillside. I really didn’t want to make the traditional “updated prom photo” pose, as my girlfriend Jess calls it. Of course I made the safe shots. …we also called them “grandparent” [...]

Shawna, Brooks and their fat effin cat
The following are photos of Shawna Potter, Brooks Harlan and their fat cat Chaos at Big Crunch Amp and Guitar Repair. There’s a common conception that photo shoots are either all work-generated or for the whims of vein people. And to those people I ask: WHAT ABOUT THE FUN OF IT? Some of the photos [...]
