Posting photos of my work is an interesting exercise; there is the photo and its composition, the subject matter, the work itself. When I get behind a camera, I tend to consider the graphic quality of the shot as much as what I’m trying to capture. My staged photos, with lights and backdrop, tend especially to be art portraying art.

My approach varies from the purer, more objective views, by failing to provide the most complete photographic description of a piece. If anything, I hope that it reinforces that there’s no substitute for handling and experiencing a piece of work. At the same time, it makes for some really compelling viewing.
