My Bio
I'm a professional photographer, web developer, and graphic designer. I'm located in Southern California, but originally from Texas. I enjoy virtually anything visually interesting, but I am most enthusiastic about imagery that surprises and enriches. Sometimes, this is accomplished with simplicity and other times, it's through boldness. I love it all.
Favourite Visual Artist
Tammy Stambaugh: You've never heard of her, but she makes miracles in her garage.
Favourite Movies
"You're gonna need a bigger boat..."
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists
At the moment: The Ditty Bops & Dwight Yoakum
Favourite Books

Favourite Writers
Currently, Lois McMaster Bujold. She writes fantasy and scifi but reading her work is pleasant. Fun.

Canon cameras and lenses, Adobe Creative Suites
Other Interests
Photography, Industrial and Interior Design, Commercial Art, 60's minimalism and frogs.
