For quite a few years, now, I've been making pictures about friends and strangers for fun and money. All my work is done on location with or without a lot of fancy equipment. Other than that, I live in a century old farmhouse on an island about 5 miles from Seattle with a woman that was clearly out of my league when I conned her into going on a picnic.
