I am a Comercial Photography major living in Vegas. My goal is to take technicaly sound photos and make them artistic.
I am currently working on a couple projects. "For Sale" is a collection of HDR images taken of autos that are sitting along the roadside for sale. It is a document of the world of cars and the places they are found. I have another website devoted to those images. Recently some of my images from my project "For Sale" placed second prize for the College/University portfolio category in the 2009 PIEA international photography contest. My images will show with all of the other winners in an exihibition that will travel the world. I am also working on a team project with photographer Miroslav Parushev photographing people in costume with a 4x5 view camera. The first attempt of ours was on Halloween where we set up our set near a haunted house and mall that many people were attending. Every person photographed was in costume of some sort. We call our team Project Halloween. Along with these projects I am a working assistant in the Las Vegas commercial field where I am gaining valuable experience.
