This is a photo collection of stuff i've done since my move to chicago (4.5 years ago).

 

The majority of the photos on this page were taken with my Canon F-1. Next tier down is my Canon AE-1. (primary lenses are 50mm, 28-80mm w/macro, and my beloved 14mm.)

 

I also love medium format, my Mamiya 6, my Holga, and my old Hasselblad 500C (currently lenseless, anyone want to give me a lens they aren't using?).

 

Digital shots are tagged, though the camera I use varies. Right now the one being used the most is a Canon 20D I'm borrowing. I will soon be purchasing a used 5D.

 

Other cameras in my arsonal include: restored Super Graphlex 4x5 press camera, Kodak Duraflex, a former Kinkos passport camera (legitimately acquired), a couple of lomos, a couple polaroids and various homemade pinholes, including one that is three feet in diameter.

 

Most of my cameras have been named.

 

I'm embarking on a career in humanist documentary photography. I would like to be able to help people. I also want to have my own studio where I can work and people would pay me to shoot on my old film cameras.

 

And I like both hot lights to strobes.

I love this lady's pictures and am usually in suspense until she posts more--I never know what I'm going to get! The degree of greatness, however, is always consistent.
