__________________________________________
That little bit up there is all I've had as a profile for almost five years now. It wasn't funny when I wrote, and it's not funny now.
But really, what do you write about yourself? I like taking photos. Amazing, huh?
I do really like it though. I like it for a lot of reasons, more then I care to list. The abridged version;
• it relaxes me (sometimes)
• I feel closer to the things I shoot
• it forces me to look at, and spend time with things I wouldn't otherwise
• colors / textures / light / chemistry / the unknown
• it acts as my visual journal
• the sound of the shutter
I use cameras, I haven't built any of my own, I'm not that cool. I shoot digital & film. I've been getting more into film of late. Does that sound really pretentious? It seems like there is a hierarchy in the world of formats.
So yeah, I've really enjoyed being able to have this place to upload and display my work. Thanks for being here, and your input on my work. Take a look around, by now it seems I've built up a little back catalog.
Blessings,
Cliff

"Cliff Cordes... an amazing man and an amazing photographer. I roomed with this guy for 3 months during a photo school in Hawaii and I was constantly inspired by his creativity. Cliff just works with a quiet excellence never drawing attention to himself but just always producing quality work."

"Cliff is incredible. He is consistently doing something that blows my mind. I can never keep his art style in a box for long before it blows that box to smithereens. His style is sharp and unadulterated, unrestrained by frivolous rules. My excitement for his exploding potential increases with each Flickr upload. And as a person? Frick he's hilarious."

"Hmmm... Let's see... Well, aside from being my brother and friend, he's a really cool guy. He has got some SERIOUS fashion skills and should NEVER be engaged in a "foot war"! Cliff's got his own unique style which makes him so cool. His photography skills have always been far above the normal, but in the past year or so he's ramped-up the SICK factor in everything! Cliff is also MAD GOOD with Photoshop and such. Keep up the incredible work brother!!!
God Bless!"21st August, 2006
