About

And another gaping mouth is birthed in to the virtual world. It is my hope that this mouth is at least periodically as quiet as it is loud.

I finished college in 2006 and followed internships from Washington, D.C. and Newport, R.I. to a job in Waterbury, Conn. When the future of that job started looking grim, I left, jumped the pond, and landed in Africa. After freelancing for the Associated Press in the DR Congo for three-ish months, I returned stateside for an internship at the VII Photo Agency in New York. Following the internship, I freelanced in New York for most of 2009. In January 2010, I started an internship at the Deseret News in Salt Lake City, Utah.

I like to think: often about our transitory place in life; occasionally about the feel of the road through my handlebars; constantly about light. All too often those thoughts drift away, and it occurs to me that a few of them may be worth writing down.

I want this blog to be a home for personal projects and unpublished photos–from the daily work I’m pleased with to the complete misses. I’ll try to have a good story or two to go with all of it. This is my first (real) blog and first attempt at writing about photography. I hope you stick around and let me know what I can be doing better.
