the terrible two's & a peek.

¡Feliz cumpleaños a la Viedfinder!

 

In 2009, I started this blog, cool name and all (at least I think it's cool & clever), as a way to keep myself motivated to shoot. But also as a way to connect with people, show them the stories of those I've worked with, and to keep transparency while I'm in the midst of shooting large projects, in which, I typically fall off the face of the earth. Sorry 'bout that. I hope that over the last two years, you all have enjoyed my images, the stories I helped to tell, and all the people behind this blog, not just myself.

As I go into my terrible two's, I leave a sneak peek still image of my upcoming documentary in hopes that the future leads to more posts and more stories to visually show and tell.

So to all my viewers, thank you all for the motivation, praise and help to keep me going! :)

friday's lights.

Last weekend, I went to the Charles B. Aycock H.S. football game to shoot an assignment for my documentary photojournalism class. The resulting video is an interpretation of the game through 11 different words: mystery, flow, freedom, colors of life, unbridled joy, dew, shooting away from the eye, mood distant, drama and layers. I hope you enjoy this quick little video!

Besides doing random videos and photo assignments, I'm starting work on 2 documentary pieces, one based on social interactions and the feeling of loneliness and the other on biofuels for our military. If you are interested in learning more about either of these projects, comment, email, tweet or Facebook me!
