SHIFTING FOCUS.

Roughly five years ago I took up photography as a means of acquiring a library of reference material. Taking on a new art form can be thrilling. There was a lot to learn and I was lucky enough to befriend some hugely talented photographers that could guide me along the way, namely Kathryn Parker and Christopher Bautista. I can honestly say my venture into photography was rewarding in ways i never expected both with the online exposure it's earned me and with the friendships i've formed along the way. Many of the models, makeup artists and wardrobe designers have turned from collaborators into friends.

While I've enjoyed photography it has begun to compete heavily with my true passion, illustration. The process of gathering wardrobe, flying in models and editing photos is very time consuming and i often find myself going weeks without putting pencil to paper. This is not at all what i intended. My attempts to cut back on photography are too often thwarted by amazing opportunities that would pull me back in.

In an effort to refocus my efforts I've decided to withdraw from photography. I have several shoots still planned over the next month or two with which i intend on following through with. After those any photography i do will be strictly for reference material and wont be posted.
