“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” - Ansel Adams

I recently completed a project for Kokua Worms in Honolulu. You can see an image of the chalk board wall painting I did amongst the banner images on the home page.

Check out Kokua Worms if you are interested in worm composting.

Four of my thesis images will be published in the Creative Quarterly Journal of Art and Design issue 36 coming out this Fall. You can find my name listed under student photography winner and the photos will soon be viewable in their online gallery.

Seventeenth and final session conducted for my Isolation thesis photo series... will be posting photos of my gallery show soon. It was a big success, lots of foot traffic and multiple visitors told me it was one of the best thesis shows Linfield gallery had hosted.

Fifteenth session...I'm doing my best to get a wide age range within the photos...I'm not sure why the last four images uploaded with weird coloring...they're darker like the first two.

Bought glass and plexiglass from Lowe's today to make a small mockup with 8''x11'' paper... I found out that thick 0.5 inch plexiglass is pretty expensive as it only comes in really large sheets that I have to order. I ended up purchasing a .08 sheet which the salesman cut into 6 pieces for me so that I could layer them for a 0.48 thickness to try out...unfortunately the more pieces I include in the equation, the less clean and simple the overall appearance will be since I was hoping for. There was a 0.22 inch plexiglass sheet they had in stock which I may settle for if people don't think it makes much of a difference...I'm trying to keep things as cost efficient as possible since I'm contemplating showing around 8-12 13''x19'' images for the show.

This picture doesn't show the effect well. I'll bring the mockup to thesis critique on Wednesday to see what people have to say...


Fourteenth session... I'm planning on producing a small mock up of the final presentation of my photos this week, will post photos of how it turns out before Wednesday. I'm looking to do three more sessions this week to finish things off.
