Previous Work

After excruciating over what pictures to post I decided to start things off with some photographs from a tattoo portraiture series that I've been developing for a couple of years. I've photographed friends, family, some people I hardly knew, even the president of Clatsop Community College in Astoria. The idea is to look at how personality and attitude relate to the tattoos, and how the tattoo's define the person. I've even gone to a couple of tattoo parlors to photograph the process (Nine Lives, and Area 51 tattoo parlor below). It's been fun, and it's something I hope to continue to develop and evolve. Enjoy.
