Currently I moonlight as a photographer, graphic designer, & sometimes a painter (when I can find the time).
I am purely self-taught and am constantly looking for new projects & techniques to save me from the monotony of my 8-5.
About 2 years ago I stumbled upon a plastic toy camera while in Urban Outfitters. Entrigued, I began researching plastic toy cameras and discovered the Lomographic Society, along with a newly revitalized creative outlet. Needless to say, within months I had purchased a Holga and a Lomography Fisheye.
Today I mainly focus on shooting film with my Holga and Lubitel 166+, and have adopted The 10 Golden Rules of Lomography. I’ve been forced to start shooting digital and just picked up a Nikon D90, but I still prefer shooting with my lomos.
From the Top Down is my current project of experimenting with my twin-lens Lubitel to document the world around me. I carry my cameras everywhere I can. If you see a guy wandering around Raleigh with a bag full of cameras or shooting with an odd looking antique camera its probably me.
