The Work Pt2
2021-07-30 10:18:26 UTC
Fucked, Stockholm, 2019 This is a complex tale. I’ll tell it over a couple entries. Here’s part 2. Part 1 can be found here. The issue with not loving oneself leads to other unexpected consequences along the way. My escape from this feeling of utter freak-dom had always been a…

Thought the looking glass
2020-03-28 05:26:28 UTC
Through the looking glass, Palm Springs 2018 After the first week of quarantine there’s an interesting emotional dichotomy at play. But this is about more than Covid 19 and quarantine so let me back time up a few weeks, to a morning I woke-up, completely disoriented, crying my eyes out.…

Learning To Fly
2019-12-17 04:41:17 UTC
Learning to Fly, 2019 As the year 2019 comes to a slow, inevitable close, I’m struck by the sudden desire to start photographing again. I can’t really say that I ever stopped–I carry a camera with me every day to work. I shoot images on the weekends out with the…

Alternative realities
2019-10-10 05:16:39 UTC
Alternative Realities, LA, 2018 I think communication has been hacked… Not all communication of course, but masses of it, especially when it comes to what is actually happening in the world. I’m not talking about Russian Facebook ads or the 2016 election hacking, I’m talking about the root of the…

Look here
2019-09-30 23:33:27 UTC
Look Here, Los Angeles, 2018 I’m fighting the impulse that people–a vast majority of people by my humble reckoning–are not capable of deciding what is in their best interest. Maybe my attitude is a product of the twenty-four-hour-cable-news-cycle-pandemic that’s currently infecting anyone with the remotest interest in current events. It’s…

Muse-ums
2019-09-17 03:49:09 UTC
Muse-ums, LA 2018 There’s a quick simple story behind this image that I rather like. I made this image during a trip to the Marciano to see Yayoi Kusama’s ”with all my love for the tulips, I pray forever.” We were just about to leave the exhibit after having shot…

Gleaming the cube
2019-09-05 02:36:35 UTC
Gleaming the cube, Los Angeles 2019 I fell in love with the works of Ai WeiWei over the course of last year. I was late to the party–something that my friend Tim was more than eager to point out. I hadn’t seen Disposition and when I saw Forever, photographing both…

Mardi Gras 2018
2018-09-10 18:32:45 UTC
I spoke to Bruce Guilden at the opening night of his “GO” show opening a couple years back. While talking, I mentioned that my favorite book of his was his monograph on Mardi Gras, “Hey Mister, throw me some beads.” In what was quickly becoming a trend of that conversation,…

Size matters
2018-07-16 04:20:46 UTC
“Size Matters” Los Angeles 2018 This will be a simple, cheery post for a weekend that has over-flowed with a wide-variety of naps. I’ve taken quick naps, long naps and medium-length naps. I’ve had naps on the couch, naps on my bed and even a nap on the floor. I…

Not like the others
2018-07-03 04:08:03 UTC
“Not like the others” New Orleans, 2018 I was walking through the sculpture garden right outside NOMA when I turned a corner and came across this installation. At first it didn’t dawn on me that the life-like statue in-living-color was actually a real human being. He was being so still…

Deafening silence
2018-06-27 06:09:00 UTC
“Deafening Silence” Malibu 2018 It’s quiet where I am. It’s so quiet that the noises outside are monstrously loud even though there’s nothing new or unexpected about them. It’s the same motorbikes and traffic and barking dogs and car alarms I hear every day, but the house is oh so…

Timothy
2018-02-01 04:25:47 UTC
“Timothy” K-Town 2017 There are few people that I call good friends. I think a lot of of it has to do with the fact that I’ve never really been good at being a friend to another male adult. I have a hard time connecting with my gender on a…

Low
2018-01-09 06:56:26 UTC
“Low” Venice Beach 2017 One of the best parts about living where I live is that I’m only a stones throw from the Venice Beach boardwalk. Venice is seething with images just begging to be made and time after time when I head down there, close to sunset with a…

Call Eli
2017-12-30 02:19:14 UTC
“Call Eli” Los Angeles 2017 This store was someone’s dream… I’m going to say that it was Eli’s store and ergo Eli’s dream of how he was going to make it big in the world. He had a dream of how he was going to leave his mark on Los…

The Reader
2017-12-29 06:26:16 UTC
“The Reader” Manhattan Beach 2017 The facet of film photography that hooked me was the aspect of full commitment. By full commitment I’m referring to all aspects of photography that a digital shooter will waste time checking or changing or adjusting rather than shooting and trusting their instincts. When I…

At a loss
2017-12-28 03:20:00 UTC
“At a loss” Los Angeles 2017 I’m at a loss. I don’t remember making this image. And while I don’t recall making this image, I am 100% certain that I was the one who made it. That may sound ridiculous but when you are married to a photographer and have…

Hail to the Chief
2017-12-22 05:48:08 UTC
“Hail to the Chief” Venice 2017 I’ve been sick and upset and not in the mood to post here or on Insta. I haven’t even really been in the mood to be a citizen of the United States or even a human of earth lately. I have a sinus infection…

At the end of the day
2017-11-20 05:11:30 UTC
“At the end of the day 1” ‘At the end of the day 2” “At the end of the day 3” Nothing today will be related to photography really. You’ve been warned. I haven’t processed any film this month so far. In fact I haven’t shot very much this month…
