Well, after some time now, I can say that I'm a photographer. I've been shooting weddings now with Edward Fox Photography out of Wauwatosa, WI for a bit now. They've done a great job encouraging me, teaching me, and helping me along the way.
So by day, mild mannered technical service guy. By night, photographer.
If you are a person/business/organization who would like to use one of my images, please feel free to let me know (if it is going to be used by a church, I would just want to get credit). I don't want to charge much for those who want to use/print, but I'd really prefer something you know? I'm a poor college student/engineer!
Also, if I catch you using my photos without my permission, that's not cool. Just ask please. Otherwise, we'll have problems. I know some pandas who can do things.

Pete Prodoehl says:
"mainfr4me is a real photographer... I mean, he knows his stuff! He even gets paid gobs of money to shoot photos. (I think it's "gobs" but I'm not sure.) mainfr4me is also one of the guys who organizes the Milwaukee Strobist group, which is cool, because I need to learn that stuff. I'll even forgive him for missing PhotoCamp because he has managed to make it to every OconomoPhotoWalk so far... Sweet!"

"Erik is a really nice guy, easy to talk to and easy to enjoy time with. I met him for the first time at the Polar Bear Plunge 01/01/08 I thought he was nutts for jumping in the freezing waters…. but I have learned to appreciate and enjoy his fun company during the Cream City Milwaukee photowalks, his emails, text messages and his pictures."
