My life has been a little heavy on the Elvis lately. This Elvis is only 12 weeks old, and is destined for holiday card fame.
This is a piece by Anne Campbell, one of the owners of Artichoke, for whom I just finished up some “slides.”
A couple of images from a newborn session that I’m working on laying out in a birth announcement.
Edward St. Pe’ over at WLEZ was nice enough to let me borrow this Unidyne Mic for a shoot with Shea Arender. Below is one of the images of both . . .
This is one I’ll be working on for weeks, but I always want that immediacy of reward and have to process at least a couple of images . . .
These are all from a new series I have been working on for the last couple of weeks. I’ve been lucky enough to get critical feedback from a few good friends, which is essential to me. The images contain some hand drawn segments, mixed with patent drawings and overlapping exposures of cameras; and all of the patent drawings actually relate to the antique cameras in the image. Unfotunately, I don’t think the images work very well small, so these will probably never be printed smaller than 10×10.
A casual shot from a Senior session. (I am amazed how many people hear that and think I am photographing someone over 65.) The outdoor shots, which I rarely do, were some of the mother’s favorites . . . perhaps I’ll have to do more outside work.
Check out this Wedding Announcement from the Northside Sun, which prominently features two of my photos sans-credit. I assume this has to do with their business model, since they have a couple of local studios as photographers/advertisers . . . perhaps if I took out a full page ad of a family in denim and black with an image of a gilded gold frame around it they would give me photo credit . . . OK, that was harsh . . . there is plenty of room in the Jackson, MS photo market for half a dozen Grillis or Kees style studios and those guys deliver to their demographic the product desired.

I’ve uploaded a gallery of the photos in the Ides of the South exhibit to Light and Glass. The folder contains one image that isn’t in the Starkville version of the show, and three images that were not in the Jackson version. I ran out of space in Starkville and had to cut “Jones Drugs” from the show, and I included two of my photos of MSU and a new shot “Yellow Bull.” All of the images in the show are 18″x18″ giclee prints, matted and framed in 24″x24″ frames. The prints are signed and numbered editions of 10 (all of the images in the show are also available as 10″x10″ editions of 30). Also, I included my artist statement in the gallery description . . . and I included the titles for once (normally I just leave the camera assigned file name out of laziness).
. . . by voting for my picture of an adorable, yet unfortunately named, weiner dog! Go to the Humane Society of Memphis’s Calendar Contest and vote for #275. (Sorry, but you have to scroll through the page, no way to directly link.)
