I never fully know how to describe myself other than to say I'm whimsical and unconventional. I like to live life to the fullest and I never know what tomorrow will bring. I often don't like to plan ahead so I'm living for today. One of the greatest quotes I've ever heard was "I believe you should live each day as if it is your last, which is why I don't have any clean laundry, because, come on, who wants to wash clothes on the last day of their life?". So I like to get out there do my thing and shoot from the hip.

I am very varied in my photography and mediums on my likes and how I like to shoot. I take most of my pictures with my Canon Rebel XSi or iPhone 4s but on occasion I will whip out one of my many plastic cameras albeit Holga or Diana to my nice vintage Russian Zorki 4. I forgot to mention I have quite the little collection of cheap digital cameras that I play around with that gives unpredictable results. I guess that's what I am going for is 'unpredictable'. Of course for editing my photos I use a combination of the Gimp and Photoshop. I do use Lightroom quite a bit but in a pinch I will use or whatever is handy at the moment.
