The name's JJ.

I enjoy spending time with my family. I've got a wonderful wife, and an almost 3-year old little boy. Of course I really enjoy photography, or I wouldn't be here.

I was into Jeeps, cars, guns, knives, overpriced stereos, and all kinds of other guy stuff. (But have recently learned that with a toddler, anything dangerous must be hidden, anything breakable is already broken or sold) Probably the only thing that separates me from the other guys out there is that I don't give a shit about football.

I've been taking pictures for several years now... but only started taking control of my pictures in the last few. I've had a few SLR's since Y2K. I read books, attended seminars - all in attempt to understand what I'm doing. I'm too impatient to wait for developing, and too forgetful to remember what settings each photo used. Simply put - I love the immediate results with digital photography.

I don't have a favorite subject... If I see it, I shoot it.

Currently I use:
