I have been meaning to do this for sometime.

These are the last batch of photographs from my Sleepy Hollow piece I started on a while back. The project, like most of life, did not go as planned. I was not 100% satisfied with the results but I met some lovely people along the way and fell more in love with that corky three mile stretch of Carbon Canyon. Thank you to all who spent time with my camera and I.

And We found ourselves in California....

LA,Our City
this video is lovely and yes, he kicks this much ass every time he speaks.

As of late

I finished a book in three hours the other day. It felt really good, I forgot I can do that.
I am jonesing for a southern summer and my mother's food and lightening bugs and perhaps an afternoon shower.
And I wish I could shoot a 4x5 like Sally Mann

Skin

This is an ongoing project of nudes. Here is a taste of the skin I have been shooting as of late.

Yermo, California

Finally made that trip out to the desert with Laura. I so missed the bizarre and abandoned.  Warm beer in hand, wandered the mile stretch of Yermo Road and riffled through the remains of people's lives. The warm, dry, desert wind and a chocolate milkshake was exactly what my body needed.

Rosemary

Rosemary showed me her home, feed me fresh cherries, invited me back for tea, and showed me old photos of her pet turkey, Martha. The yard always has fresh laundry on the clothes line ("a sign of my old age" she says). She does not like to wear shoes. Best of all being there made me feel like summer.

Destiny

I have been going door to door in Sleepy Hollow for days now and photographing people. This is Destiny or "Desty" on her front steps.
