This Photo Blog follows my paid photography projects and self-imposed photo exercises. I hope to make this blog both interesting and educational by combining my dubious story telling skills, life musings and occasional good idea.
Enjoy,

Self Portrait

By Leave a Comment

For many photographers (including me) a self portrait is a painful lesson in humility.  I take photos of people, so I know all too well that being a model comes easier for some people than others.  Putting myself in front of the lens, even when the camera is set to automatically take photos,  allows me to experience some of these feelings and insecurities that can hinder or even ruin photos.   Taking selfies in my own studio seems indulgent but also provides a good experience for me and helps me grow as a photographer.

My Photo Philosophy

Today's editing software allows for manipulation of photos well into the realm of the ridiculous. That said, post-production editing is an important aspect of the photography process. When done right, editing can make photos look more like how we see the world with our own eyes.

Slight photo enhancements are okay but fakes are not.
