The Inaugural Issue of Aint-Bad
Aint-Bad is a new publication that is now available for your photo-loving consumption. A fresh venture that wishes to bring new concepts of documentation, art and the future of how the medium is presented; this co-existing web and print magazine has some great potential. I would encourage you to check it out!
And more importantly, check in for new interviews, featured artists and calls for submissions for the next release.

I am not a Fashion Photographer
but here are some highlights from the SCAD Fashion Show.
Daylight in Savannah
Because like my compatriots, it’s nice to enjoy taking photos for the sake of taking photos.

Addendum: Some Sleep, and a Little Help from my Friends
I tend to embarrass myself more with this format than not, but are those not what blogs are for?
Anyway, an update: The show is hung and open at La Galerie Bleue!
And a very many thank yous to David Welch, Reid Elem and Krishna Chavda for helping me install. I would probably still be there without your brute strength and straightening skills.
This Little Obstacle Called Thesis
So, I am very much trying to keep perspective on my stress levels during this time of…completion. Yes, I haven’t really slept for no other reason than nerves. Maybe due to the fact that I’m hanging my show tomorrow, alone, and I’m realizing my frames are wider than my wing-span. This may be compounded by my lack of motor skills.
I am also refusing to fret over the fact that I have rewritten page 11 of my thesis 3 times because I just think Martha Rosler does it better, and I still cannot bring myself to like Michael Wolf.
And of course I’m not worried about what I’m going to do with 15 giant framed photographs with a lease about to run out, no job lined up or destination. No…that will work itself out.
I will have an MFA. And an application in at the car wash.
But, until I get that rejection letter, I will leave you with a photo. Because, don’t I always? And if we’re going to be talking about photography, and perspective, and completion, why not throw in a little hero worship. I have nothing to complain about.

I have started to edit, again.
