Cruising Site

Untitled (Cruising). 20 x 20", Digital C-Print, 2010.

The first text piece in my series I'll Take Care Of You that I'm feeling really confident about. This and two other images from the series will be in a group show at the LOUIS VESP loft at the end of April that my friend Deric is curating. Really excited to see how everything comes together.

2 Versions of Meredith.

Two images from a recent shoot I did with my ex-girlfriend and longtime friend Meredith for the I'll Take Care of You project... Can't quite decide which image I like better, though I'm leaning towards the image in the bedroom... I just really like the angle I'm sitting at, and the lighting. It sort of reminds me of this image I took of my friends Scott and Brian, back when they were dating a few years ago. I'm wondering if maybe I want to show multiple moments from one session with certain people, perhaps working them into dyptichs or something as a way of extending that relationship... hmmmm.

I'll Take Care Of You

Started working on a new project, tentatively called I'll Take Care Of You. This came out a little softer than I would have liked, but I think it's a nice beginning. I really like the tension in the way Ryan's hand is placed on top of mine; how strange and awkward it feels to suddenly be aware that you are touching another person, not really being sure of what that means about your relationship. I'm really excited to see how the rest of the images come out as I work on them over the holiday. It's a little nerve wracking to throw myself back into self-portraits, as I haven't really photographed myself since graduating from college in 2005, but I'm looking forward to the challenge.

Like I said, just a beginning, but definitely more to come in the near future.
