I've been shooting pictures for about 10 years. Prior to that, I wasn't very interested in photography, due in part to the fact that I'd only used a 110. Once I started in school, I abandoned my primitive digital camera for 35mm, and didn't really mess with digital again until 2003 when I got a crappy little point and shoot, followed by a less crappy one a couple years later, and finally a DSLR in 2006. I shoot film as well, but usually just to grab exceptional shots that I run across with Digital. I try to make every frame count with film.
As of June 2008, I now have an AAS Degree in Commercial Photography.
You can hire me. Rates depend on the job and the licensing terms.
I am a freelance phototographer/photojournalist for the likes of Dvice, Gizmodo, Fleshbot and Jalopnik. My work has also appeared in/on Wired, Io9, Consumerist, DeviantNation, Vice, Boink, Urb and King. A full byline listing can be found on my site under the "resume" section.
I am a staff photographer for DeviantNation.com
