I'm interested in all types of photography. I shoot events for several non-profit groups I'm a member of. I shoot photo essays for several print magazines. Lately I mostly shoot for fun (but I do occasionally still shoot for hire). If you have a shoot of some kind you'd like me to consider, send me an email and let's talk.

I do a lot of shoots with photos of models and fashion. If you're a model with an interesting idea for a photo shoot, let me know. Almost of all these are shoots I do for trade (TFP). Check out my Model Mayhem profile for more info.

For many years I shot 35mm film on a Canon A1 and later a Canon T90. I eventually moved to digital with a Canon 40D DSLR, then fully frame digital with a Canon 6D. I'm planning to move to mirrorless full frame digital but haven't decided on which camera yet. I also shoot with my Phone camera for my phone camera stream, sort of a photo blog of life.

I haven't forgotten film, of course. In addition to my Canon T90, I still shoot with a variety of vintage film cameras including my favorite, the Italian Bencini Comet S 127. One of my pastimes is renovating vintage cameras and shooting film with them. I've written a short tutorial on how I do this called: Buying, Repairing, and Using Vintage Cameras. I've also experimented with expired films, found films, cross processing, and other weird photo stuff.

I'm a founding member and frequent contributor to Camera-Wiki.org, a free online encyclopedia that is attempting to document all cameras and lenses, with a focus on vintage gear. I've become quite obsessed with the history of Vivitar and spend a lot of time collecting and using very old Vivitar lenses, particularly, the M42, T/T2, T-4, and TX mount Vivitar lenses. You can find the result of my work on the Camera-Wiki.org Vivitar page.
