Photographer's Site
What's on my mind
Photography is a strange business. The competition is so stiff, it's amazing that anyone makes a living at it. Every one wants to be a photographer!
The Camera companies have worked very hard at putting high powered photographic imaging equipment into the hands of consumers. Possessing the big guns in photographic equipment does not make a professional photographer.
Professional Photographers Site
Hello,
This site is about photography, being a professional photographer and pretty much whatever pleases me to put here.
I promise, G to PG rated pictures only
I have a "commercial" website. It is in existence to demonstrate and sell my services as a photographer to the public at large. My photography website has been designed and re-designed criticized by family, friends and my peers in the photography industry, picked apart, revamped, restyled, the color has been changed, etc... ad infinitum.
It is a very nice professional photography website.
It is pleasant to look at, easy to navigate and shows off my skills as an Editorial, Wedding, Event and Portrait Photographer.
Just one Problem...it's too nice and crisp.
Please don't get me wrong, I love the beauty of photographing a young couple's wedding or creating a family portrait... I love what I do.
It's just that the site does not address the trials, the struggle and, at times, even the madness of being a professional photographer. For every beautiful image I shoot there is a counterpart. Though provocative and interesting I have seen the micro expressions that show the truth about people. I am not comfortable looking at people any more except when looking straight through the lens.
So this site will fill the gaps... This is My site... It's about control. It's about stopping time. It's about the insanity all visual artists share.
It's about photography.
