My first portraits as a new business were of mother and son who are close friends of the family and willing guinea pigs. No poses were planned, all I asked them to do was sit and mess around.

Just messing around with my camera. I love my mac so I thought it would make a good subject.

I really should have shaved, but I was bored, and felt like playing with lights

The only photo I have of New Years Eve, 2006. My camera died right after taking this photo at Mary Ann's party.

From TMBO, where I titled this "1000th Paper Crane," and was asked "[have you] actually made 1000?", I opted to write this little response. I've edited it a little since.

 

[The crane is] not mine.

 

Many years ago, before I had a major falling out with them, for a birthday one of my friends was given 1000 paper cranes by a mutual friend, each tiny crane folded over a period of 2 months. I think she spent an hour a day or so folding these small cranes preparing for this gift.

 

It's a powerful gesture. Even if the recipient of 1000 cranes doesn't know the story behind the gift, or what it represents.

 

So, when trying to figure out a title for this photo, that story popped in to my head.

 

I should teach myself how to fold the cranes. My buddy Taketora was a minor origami crane master until his untimely death. He'd fold them small enough to fit on a fingertip, out of spare bits of paper torn from the wrappers of the cheap chopsticks a local sushi-boat joint gave out. Occasionally, he'd have some small waxed paper with him, and send the cranes floating down the water way or subtly set them on the boats.

 

I don't think I could fold a crane to save my life. I can barely keep my hands stable enough to take a picture.

We found the regular choir's robes in the cupboards in the song school. I think ours are better...

Somebody thought my previous version of this photo reminded them of Magritte's 'False mirror', so I stole some clouds from another photo of mine and made an official homage :)

Watching.. They were totally engrossed with a dead fish and were deciding what to do next.

I took a picture of this old tire and was messing with the setting in iPhoto.
