two thousand & eleven
2011. what a year. in may we bought a house, and i quit my job to go full-time with photography. shot medium format for the first time, went to italy (twice—thanks scott), france, and newfoundland. i never would have guessed even 5 years ago that i would be doing this. thank you so much to my incredible wife kate for supporting me and being a total babe.
to clients for trusting me and my vision, and allowing me to do this—you guys give me the best job ever. thank you.
to the photographers i’ve looked up to, been super annoying and asked way too many questions, advice, and direction—thank you.
oh, and leon says merry christmas.
italy
a couple of weeks ago i had the incredible opportunity to shoot a wedding with scott chester in italy. it was one of the best experiences i’ve ever had. we went to florence, volterra, sienna, and a bunch of other tuscan towns that i can’t pronounce. i even held up the leaning tower of pisa. here are my photos of everything but the wedding – you’ll have to keep an eye on his blog for those. big big thank you to him for bringing me along. all of these images were shot with my pentax 67 and developed by richard photo lab. enjoy.
