Solo Photography Gallery Show...Second one

August 22, 2019

My second solo gallery show, this time at the Conoco Gallery at OSUIT.

As I near the end of my time working with OSUIT, it was pleasure to share my passion for photography and imagery in print with the community. It seems fitting to have a show before I go.

I’m super honored and thrilled to share my photographic works with the community of Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology and surrounding areas. The gallery opening was August 13. The opening was a beautiful success filled with lots of positive and unique shared thoughts. This particular show was non-themed, more of a showcasing of work. I particularly enjoyed watching people view the works….some stand very close, some back away. It’s a pleasure to observe how people take in photographs.

On a side note, I’ve learned a lot about hanging a gallery show and how much time is involved. Being aware of the flow and rhythm of the images is very important. Also working the various gallery hangers can be a trick.

If you are in Okmulgee area or just want to see the images as they hang in the gallery, visit the Conoco Gallery in the Student Union of OSUIT. If you want a more private viewing, contact me in a month.

The show should hang until September 24th.

Big Shout Out to Chris Murphy!

July 13, 2019

One of the best things that can happen is when one of your super talented clients/friends gets showcased in a national magazine and you get to be apart fo the experience.

I of course am talking about Mr. Chris Murphy, he recently was included in an article in Interior Design Magazine, featuring Gay Designers for “A World of Pride.” Very cool its a quick read and I’m super proud of Chris and I’m happy to have shot his portrait and his interiors. Here’s the article please take a look. https://www.interiordesign.net/articles/16618-a-world-of-pride-gay-designers-talk-about-acceptance-and-challenges/?fbclid=IwAR2m8f6qixllwQ-drbRq_JjTvHu7N8YxwlOokOowRRURnNYL25pl2Fnr2ws

Now for the story behind the photo. Chris emailed me early Monday morning which was the same morning my flight was cancelled, I was supposed to land in Los Angles. It must have been kismet. I called Chris and said lets line it up this afternoon. Boom somethings come together nicely.

Just like that the trip is over. Back to my wonderful home in Tulsa.

So we’re back in Tulsa. We enjoyed our trip. So far if think my favorite place we visited was Palm Springs and Napa. I’m going to think about that a little more and come back to it. We had a wonderful family adventure which was way over due. Its important especially if you’re a creative to refuel you creative tank with new experiences. On this trip I think we had a chance to get to know a little bit of California and its possibilities. Every local we visited had its own vibe and color. In retrospect I feel like we did three trips in one, giving us a taste of what’s to be offered. Each place is pretty amazing in its own right. I’m going to think about the locations and experiences we had and have to elaborate in a different post.

This photo is a giant panorama I photographed from Twin Peaks of San Francisco. You can see the fog rolling in over by the Golden Gate Bridge on the left, Bay Bridge is right sort of behind the many portion of the downtown. The actual photo should be printed the size of a semi truck.
