Are you a freak, nerd or romantic? People say I’m a romantic. They tell me I would like the movie twilight, although I still haven’t seen it.
What is your day job?
Photographer.
What is your philosophy towards work?
If you are fortunate enough to be able to do what you love, you are already successful.
What would you like to learn to do?
Play guitar. Typical.
What are your current obsessions?
Freckles. 
What are you listening to right now?
Steely Dan, Talking Heads, Wilco, and Neutral Milk Hotel, plus a lot of 80’s (I’m all over the place).
If you could have a house anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Australia.  I’ve never been, but it seems like my speed.
What would you mostly likely spend $100 on?
Polaroid.  It’s crazy expensive now!
What would you like an endless supply of?
(see above)
How do you describe your fashion sense?
K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid), if you ever see me in something other than a t-shirt and jeans, you are probably at a wedding or a funeral.
Do you admire anyone’s fashion sense?
Cat at Knight Cat, her style sense and mine, we’re like this (picture me pointing with 2 fingers to my eyes, then towards her eyes, then back to my eyes, then hers, then mine again).
What would you like to recommend?
Anyone who wants to work for a photographer, don’t settle for working for jerks.  I was fortunate enough to work with bruce weber and it was the best experience I’ve had so far in photography. He was genuinely kind to everyone. If you start working for a photographer and he/she is a jerk, quit. If enough of us do that they will be forced to change or weeded out of the system. Putting other people down to make yourself look good is a sign of insecurity, don’t they know that??
Who would you like to say Shut up! to?
I probably wouldn’t say “shut up”, but “the birther’s”,  they could take it down a notch.
