Stories and field notes rooted in the Florida landscape
Day Off - Kayaking the Ocklawaha River
With a rare morning to myself, I kayaked a section of the Ocklawaha River and created a video of the adventure.
Making A Photography Zine
I made my first photography zine using the film I shot in California.
California On Film
Jenny and I went to California for our anniversary, and I recorded the entire trip on my Mamiya 7ii and 15 rolls of film.
An Ever-Shifting Landscape
It was midday and 95 degrees with scattered thunderstorms forecasted throughout the afternoon. The conditions were perfect for a lot to go wrong.
The Blue Square
I have a love-hate relationship with light painting. It never goes as planned, and although my ideas are tactful, the execution is consistently inadequate. This past weekend I took to the woods to explore the role the physical process plays in art and how that affects our perception of it.
The Things We Carried
They warn you about the bears. They warn you about the alligators. They warn you about the rattlesnakes and the water moccasins. But they never warn you about the two guys hauling an oversized bathroom mirror miles through the brush and the thicket into the wilderness. Probably best to stay clear of those two.
Life and Death in The Prairie
I grew up in Florida. My family moved here from Cape Cod when I was seven. But I’ve always seen Florida as an unfortunate circumstance, a stain left in the carpet of my parents’ old dreams. This is the second post of my Contact Sheets series.
Contact Sheets
One of my goals for 2019 is to create a zine about the Juniper Prairie Wilderness area of the Ocala National Forest. In conjunction with this zine, I’m creating a blog series called Contact Sheets, where I post the entire contact sheet for each roll of film I shoot for this project. I spent yesterday developing and scanning three rolls from a recent Juniper Prairie Wilderness trip, so what better day to kick off this project than January 1?
