Hi there!
The thing I love most about photography is seeing single moments of time that had some significance to the photographer. It's a tiny window to the past, sometimes recent, sometimes not.
I strive to take photos that never have to be digitally manipulated to be beautiful. That said, I love accidents, near-failures and the beauty of decay in the context of photography itself. While I appreciate the accuracy of an DSLR I truly enjoy the thrill of making images with less than perfect cameras.
I'm blessed with an awesome wife who happens to love darkroom work and puts up with me lugging 3 cameras with us to the park with our daughter :)
During the weekdays (and some on-call nights) I'm a sysadmin for craigslist.

"He built and documented some solid technical infrastructure that I had the pleasure to maintain, extend, and redesign. I hope he does twice as well with the kid. (Congratulations, man!)
You'll have to decide for yourself if you like the dude's photos."18th May, 2007
