I'm a 31 year old self proclaimed man-child who still believes in dreams. I've worn many hats in my short life including, artist, writer, musician, engineer, photographer, videographer, director, filmmaker, and can you believe... cowboy? (it was for two weeks and I wasn't good at it... but hey... I can say I've done it!).But the two most important things in my life are my wife Tammi and my Daughter Clarissa. They bring me constant inspiration and joy.Here's a trailer of my movie "Songs About Your Girlfriend"

Below is a selection of photos from my "365 Day Photo Diary" at www.flickr.com . One of my new years resolutions was to take a self-portrait a day for a year. I haven't been 100 percent successful, but I've done pretty well.

Bad weather follows me

Man... what a day. First of all, is it wrong to eat Grey Poupon on a microwaved hotdog? I'm pretty sure it is, but that's what I'm doing right now and it tastes good. Today began with me worrying abo...

Not Good

Today was spent finishing up a commercial for the "mud bog" I think it turned out really nice. Definitely looks better than the real thing. This evening I came home and poked around...

Sick Day

Worked on the commercial for the "mud bog" we shot Friday. I think it's gonna come out real nice. I think it's going to be false advertising though considering what this place is. I...

Stuff

Clarissa started getting sick last night, so we stayed home with her this morning. I tried to do as little as possible and just chill after all the work I've had lately. Mostly I just hung some print...

Today was my day with the girls. I've been so busy lately that I really haven't had time to hang out with them. It was really just a "do-nothing" day. This afternoon we headed out t...
