Who am I, What am I, Why am I?

At this point, I'm not really sure where my life is headed as far as photography goes.  The business, money and profit side of things really kills the mood and makes me want to run in the opposite direction, but at the same time, I don't have another choice...This is how I survive.

To keep my sanity on the side, it has been very important to embark on a personal photographic journey, one where I am following through with my visions and photographing what and who I want to in the way that I want to, which always tends to be double or multiple exposures.  I am crazy about double exposures mainly for the ability to add layers of depth to a story, place or portrait. I believe this opens many doors and windows into creating images that truly speak with the voice I'm desperately trying to yell out with.  All, but one, are shot on 35mm film, which I do enjoy for the obvious mystery element, but also because it reminds me that this is not business as usual, this is not digital, and there is no pressure, because it is made purely for the sake of creating it.




I used the image overlay feature on Sarah's Nikon D90 to get this last one.  In my opinion, the quality of a digital image is much better and no dust and hair to worry about, although it can add a desired feel sometimes.
