In June 2002 I began studying photography at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. I took a one week 4 x 5 view camera workshop because Bryan had photographed the setups with a Toyo-Omega view camera. I was surprised to discover that I had absorbed quite a bit of technical information just by watching him. Once I completed the workshop, I decided to start over from the beginning and to learn as much as I could about photography. So I enrolled in Photography I. Over the next several years I completed about a dozen courses at ICP, eventually learning to make my own large-scale chromogenic prints. Around 2007 I began working seriously as a photographer, creating my photographic series, "Gods and Monsters," with Bryan's Mamiya 6 camera. In October 2009 HP Garcia Gallery in New York gave me my first solo photography exhibition. Comments are welcome! | | | |  | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
