Hello, I'm Austin — a photographer and creator based in the Salt Lake Valley of Utah.
Much of what draws me to photography isn’t just what the lens sees, but what it nearly sees — the version of a moment that lives in memory, always slightly brighter, cleaner, quieter. I’ve found that photographs rarely capture things the way we remember them. The light fades. The colors flatten. The feeling slips away. My work is an attempt to close that gap — to bring the photo closer to the memory. Through thoughtful post-processing, I try to restore the vividness we assign to the past: a sky that felt bluer than it was, a streetlight glow that seemed warmer, a passing glance charged with more meaning than the shutter alone can hold. I shoot primarily for myself — to better understand how time edits what we see. But if, in browsing these images, something familiar flickers for you too, then I’m grateful.

It's hard to imagine life, Hollywood, or even something as commonplace as the 2:00 AM chicken and waffle tete-a-tete without the company of the fair doctor, one Prof. Austin Coloquios Bumbershoot. There's no man alive that can't say his life's not a hound's hair better ever since the day Austin drove the first spike into this new era, and that's the nitty-gritty. Pay no heed to the words of the so-called carpetbagger philanthropists: cajolery is paltry politics at best. Back when we all had to work for our salt, Austin showed us that the future belonged to every man. So, listen up. If you're worth even half your hide, you'll tip your hat and your bushel come harvest time: it's the least you can do for the man that taught us all how to make such amazing balloon animals.
