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.

Fall Leaf Affair

This is another series of double exposures shot with the Nikon F3 on a random roll of Kodak 400 I had lying around.  Venturing into Shaw Nature Reserve, a wonderland of fall colors and beaming light with just 24 shots is quite an exciting feeling.  One of my favorite things about film is the extra thought process, the selectiveness, the anticipation for something extra special, the training of the mind and heart to know when and what is right.  This was an extra special roll though, a roll of duets, joining forces of complimentary colors, vibrant bursts of color...This roll was very much inspired by love.
