Every time I photograph a wedding, I try and make one dark and creepy photo of the Church; just for me, and my blog.

All Images Re-Posted

I recently learned that my monitor was way out of calibration. While the website is called "I Like It Dark," I didn't mean for my photographs to appear quite as dark as they were! I re-calibrated my monitor; and re-edited all of the images on both the website and the blog in order for them to appear the way I envisioned them. Enjoy.

Print Exhibition - Fayetteville

My wife Kori and I will be taking over Common Grounds restaurant/coffee house to show our photography from April 1 through July 1. Kori will be showing photographs from her "light painting" series and I will be showing images from my black and white photography collection. Watch this blog for more details.

Gallery Image...

I learned today that this photograph will be displayed at the Idea Generation Galler y in London, England in March. The gallery only chose 60 images out of 2500 recently submitted to a competition, so I am honored to be included. Proceeds from the sale of prints at this exhibition go to the Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care; the only organization in England devoted to the treatment of breast cancer in younger women. This image will also be included in a hardbound book presented by the competition's sponsor; Photobox.
