Tim Lewis
Tim Lewis is the owner of Lewis Farms Nursery in Elko, Georgia. Tim was born and raised in Elko, and he and his family live in the same house he grew up in as a boy. My goal was to capture Tim in a natural environment and pose, surrounded by the plants he cares for. [...]
Bentley Video!
Emily wanted me to do a video of our dog Bentley in the backyard, and I was eager to test the 5D Mk II and it’s great HD video. I had to compress the video considerably to get it to stream online, but you can still see the quality that this camera can produce. It [...]
Juan Martinez
Juan Martinez is the owner of Guate Mexo – Tienda San Juanerita, a small food and convenience store located on N. Davis Hwy in Warner Robins, Georgia. The mango flavored Mexican soda is terrific and I highly recommend it!

I managed to walk away with a roll of film exposed and very very little interaction with residents. I delivered two portraits to people I had photographed on the last visit. The first [...]
Gompers Walking – October 14
The first 20 minutes are always the most difficult. I leave my car, strap on my backpack, and begin to walk around the Gomper Homes. I always feel out of place, an outsider who is trying to gain some understanding of the people who call this place home. I walk slowly, looking to my left [...]
Monday’s Trip
I had a profitable visit to East St. Louis today, perhaps making up for last Friday’s nightmare. I delivered some school supplies to the Christian Activities Center from my local church and started walking around the neighborhood a little bit. It was unbelievable hot today, and I was about to fry after walking for 20 [...]
Latest Happenings
I have changed the look of the site again. I know constantly changing the site is getting old, but I am looking for a theme that I really like so I can keep it and stop changing it. I am going to modify this current theme to match my color palette a little better, and [...]
The Thesis
It’s been a long time since an update, so I will do my best to recap on what has been going on within the next couple posts. I am going to tackle the issue of my M.F.A. thesis first, which has been occupying the majority of my time this summer. I decided back in the [...]
