A Journal - Art, Artists, the Artistic Process and Inspiration
One of my favorite things that happens from time to time in photography, or any creative field for that matter, is known as the happy accident. Maybe it’s a flash not going off when it was supposed to; or that time you accidentally bump the black slider and light room all the way down and…
Isn’t coffee just one of the most wonderful things ever invented? Now I know it’s not for everyone, but I do talk to a fair amount of the photographers who somewhat live on that stuff. I’m not necessarily a morning person, but I don’t have any issues with it. It’s fine, really. But I can…
Hey, I’ve started a new podcast… well, actually it’s really more of a child podcast of my main podcast, Photography Matters. Is a child podcast a thing? I don’t know, that’s just how I’m referring to it for now. Why I call it a child podcast is because it’s actually just a new show running…
I love it when inspiration surprisingly strikes. I recently watched a presentation from fine-art photographer, Todd Hido. His photography really affected me. While we both enjoy shooting at night, our work is a little different. I shoot primarily with black and white film and Todd does amazing work with, often muted, color. But we both…

Just as I mentioned in September’s issue, I love this time of year in Vegas. The weather couldn’t be better. Nice and cool, but not cold. Perfect for going out on photo walks. All of the photos in this issue were shot on Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 (and yes, all rolls were pushed to 400)….
This is my favorite time of year in Las Vegas. September is when you really begin to see the days and nights cool down. It’s so easy to spend more time outside, out walking the streets of downtown Vegas. It’ll be even better over the next couple of months. I love that. I really didn’t…
