March 17 ---More information on me---

I'm a New Englander living down in Virginia Beach. Talk about a change of pace. Then toss marriage to a woman from Missouri and you've got craziness.

I have been drawn to photography since I first picked up my father's manual Pentax SLR in high school. I fiddled around until I figured out how it worked, and decided to blow a bunch of cash on a Nikon FM-10. I still use it today, 10 years later.

There's no telling how I got interested in nudes and glamour photography. My mother is an artist, which is where I probably get the interest in the fine art aspect of photography, nudes included. I'm pretty sure my interest in glamour started when I was thumbing through Victoria's Secret catalogs in those formative years. I said to myself that someday I will be taking photographs like those. Now just to get my foot in the door professionally. It looks like I will be able to get the opportunity to do that within the next couple of years.

I try to get something uploaded everyday. If I don't, it is either a dry spell in available photos, or I'm away from my home base (my laptop).

For the most part (at least up to this date), the male nudes are myself, while the female nudes are my wife. Disrespect my wife, or any other female, and I will block you. If I could do more I would. Flickr is a place to share photos, not get your jollies off of.

Now, with that being said, please don't be offended if I don't return the contact addition. Sure, I'm flattered that you find my photographic work intriguing, but I like to be able to go through my contacts' photos and see photos that interest me. I have a selective taste in what I like.

When I get a little bit more income I think that I will start up a personal website promoting my work. Those who have followed my stream for a bit know that I have worked on designing a website, and other programing aspects.

That being said, I have saltwater in my blood (can't get the New England fisherman out of me), trained in aviation electrical systems, but I carry a camera with me where ever I go. I'm about a semester away from a bachelor's in Applied Mathematics, but I can't stay in school for too long without losing my mind. I've been dedicated to the same woman for the past 4 years, married for 3, and I still can't resist her. Sometimes it gets in the way of the photography.

Oh, while I am the principal user of this account, Jess does occasionally go through and read the comments. I'm still trying to get her to write a caption for an uploaded photo.

If someone would like to buy a print, let me know through Flickr and we can discuss it.

While a majority of the work on this account is nudes and glamour, I occasionally toss a random shoot of something that either I liked, or I'm proud of. Those are in the Random Shots set..

I split up my work across two accounts, so my general work is on a separate account, though it does not get updated aas frequently as this one.. If you get a hankering to see my other work, it is here.

I work with Nikon cameras (D200, FM-10, N90s, N80, L11) and Ilford (FP4, HP5) and Fuji films. My operating system is Linux (Ubuntu 9.4) and editing is done with GIMP.

I'm 28, and my main source of inspiration is 24.
