About Me

I'm a Twin Cities (Minneapolis) based photographer with a passion for portraiture and urban skyscapes. I pride myself on being a bit of an eclectic who takes an interest in all manner of people and places and travel a fair bit, so I try to include other elements of my work into my blog. My work tends to use a modern style with a mind toward drawing out the edges in life. I draw inspiration in my portraiture from Greg Gorman, Herb Ritts, Platon, and a handful of other masters of the art.

Whether your a new fan or an old friend, please be sure to leave a comment or drop me a line, I appreciate the feedback or just knowing who I'm reaching on the web. Thanks for checking out my work!

Thanks!,

May 23, 2008 - 1:48 am Bibi - Wow, that looks really fast! I like this photo. For "ABC Wednesday" that I decide to participate in last week (May 21) I posted a photo of what they call a "ringlspil" here, a type of merry-ro-round, but it was very early in the morning and it was very, very still. Go have a look!

Alas, now called 'Memorial Day' weekend; and, better known for the Indianapolis 500 race than for decorating the graves of the dead.

May 23, 2008 - 11:38 am mitch - Heck yeah, I'm ready for the Indy 500! OK, I know, yes, it's a serious holiday, but I used to go to the Indy with my dad, so it means a lot to me. Hopefully I can get down to the historical Fort Snelling on Monday. Great photo, a total WOW! motion-blurred lights are your thing eh? - Mitch
