KORDUROY: PHOTO BASICS x MM

Cyrus Sutton is one of the most inspirational humans i've been fortunate enough to meet. He runs a wicked cool website called Korduroy TV where he curates a plethora of stoked videos. Recently he came up to Santa Barbara and we geeked out so much over cameras that this little video was born. It's a quick but broad glimpse into how i take photographs. I hope you enjoy it, and please make a cup of tea and investigate the brilliance that is Korduroy.TV!!

NEW ARRIVAL

I am elated to have finally acquired a Hasselblad 500cm. I've shot several rolls on it so far and am enjoying both the challenge of the camera & format as well as the quality of image it produces. I'm excited to travel with it, as the system really has you slow down and exert patience to achieve a good photograph. I'll be posting photos soon!

ENTER THE VOID

I watched this movie while on the airplane yesterday and all i can say is that I am gob-smacked.
It's definitely rated R for a reason though.

ALPHA AND OMEGA

It turns out that sorting my website & blog has been a far larger undertaking than I initially imagined. Coupled with a wild imagination and exciting distractions, things have been moving pretty slowly on the digital front. But need not worry, for the re-launch takes place on Monday, January 17th.
