KFC Kills Chicks

Part of an ongoing protest by PETA against KFC. Women dress in yellow bikinis and stand on street corners to protest inhumane treatment of chickens.

More from the Obama Rally

This isn't the best photography from that day, but it's still one of my favorites. There are people holding and shaking signs, clapping, cheering, snapping photographs, flashing bulbs - but for that little girl, it's only her and Obama.

Mikaela was so adorable, it was really hard not to just photograph her all day.

Liz

First paid gig with the digital SLR - also first paid gig with someone I didn't know personally. About half an hour in, we both relaxed a bit and produced some great photographs. There are plenty of uncomfortable ones, though.

Throne Room

Taken in conjunction with an anthropology paper. I don't really remember much from this other than the awkwardness of hanging out in someone's backyard, climbing all over what amounted to a fancy jungle gym.

Obama, '08

One of the first shoots after buying my digital SLR.

oldie but good-y

This one is from a friend's wedding shower that I planned back in 2005, when I first started getting serious about my photographs. With most of my old photographs, I can't understand why I thought they were any good. This one, some how, lasted.

chola 295

From Austin's Pride Parade, 2007 - one of my favorite shoots so far.

This was a difficult shoot for me. I was constantly self-conscious of my own position regarding abortion, but honestly trying to photograph without prejudice.

taking the easy way out

Maintaining a website is work - the kind which I don't necessarily have the time to complete. You see, there's a thing called school. Turns out I go there every day. And then there's the internship and studying and various other things I have to make time for, like watching cartoons.

So, in order to keep my portfolio as updated and current as possible, I've made this here little photo blog.
