Let each man exercise the art he knows.
- Aristophanes

Who am I? Who is anyone, really? Am I who I say I am, or am I the collection of things I've thought, done, made, and said? Do I ask too many questions?

I've been a web developer by trade for the last 13 years or so. I've been a camera and photo junkie somewhat longer than that.

I like old cars, motorcycles, pinups, and rockabilly. I also like tea, jazz, and "literature" (the definition of which, and distinction from "pulp", is purely subjective and left to another day).

I've started to check things off on that mental list of Things I Want To Do, and I'm not sure if this process can be stopped now that it's begun.

I miss my grandparents and love my girlfriend, parents, friends, and family. I have no political affiliations. I belong to some things. Some things belong to me.

So, anyway, that's who I say I am.

    "chris impresses me on a daily basis. i love that we can stand in front of the same thing and take photos and the way that he sees and captures it makes me wonder if i even saw it at all. i love that he can get me to smile out loud on film. all of my personal bias aside, and there is indeed a lot of personal bias, i find his creativity and talent amazing in a way that borders on genius."
