Hi. I'm Jeff. This site tends to blow past introductions, I on the other hand like to at least say hello. It's just good internet manners.

I think I may have to throw in the towel on this self summary thing. I've never been able to come up with anything that didn't hollow upon my second read through. Besides, I have this suspicion that anyone worth knowing on this site dies a little bit inside every time they land on yet another page where a guy in Brooklyn likes whisky and wants to convey how urnest he is about art. Let's bring some fun back into this and save the self summarizing for when we meet. We both know it will be way more accurate than any weird romantic resume I could produce here. Maybe we can meet up at a bar in Brooklyn... for some whisky... talk about art and stuff...

I'm a photographer. Most recently I've been concentrating on photographing abandoned buildings and industrial sites.

To pay the bills I head the post production side of a high end wedding and events studio in Manhattan. I also teach seminars for two photographic equipment brands. Meaning I get to travel the country and put technology in the hands of creative people and help them learn how to use it.

Photographying. Fixing things. Building bonfires.

Dark eyes. Dark hair.

Women. Race cars. Focal lengths. Resolution and print size. How not to repeat mistakes. Booze. Turbos. How this country can simultaneously make me so proud and so sick to my stomach. Batman. Apocalypse survival plans, zombie and otherwise. Why people walk up escalators and then stop 4 steps from the top making me almost run into them. Artist's rights and intelectual property laws. Steak. If this site is an amazing waste of my time. Abandoned buildings and how I can gain access to them. High dynamic range photography and tone mapping. How so many ladies on this site have photos of themselves petting tigers, I had no idea that was a thing. Excuses to buy more tools. Air to fuel ratios. How to get people to see my art.

This is kind of a pointless question. I am on this site looking to change how my Fridays typically go. Aren't we all?

My eyes get all misty at the end of Terminator 2.

You can explain what "being down to earth" actually means with out saying "doesn't have their head the clouds"
