Authentic Angle Photography

After 20 years of creating — music, touring, filming, working with artists, and chasing creative ideas all over the country — I’m putting more focus into photography.
A lot of people already know me through music and video work, but photography has always been part of the story too. Winning the Black & White category at the ND State Fair was one of those moments that reminded me this is something worth pursuing deeper.
So I’m looking to work with more people and build out a stronger portrait portfolio — musicians, artists, couples, families, creatives, anybody with a story or a vibe. I want to create images that actually feel like something.
If you want to make something cool together, reach out.

Went out chasing light with my film camera today—one of those rolls you know might hold something special. There’s something about not knowing what you captured that makes it even better.

For now, here’s a quick phone shot from inside an abandoned house… just a hint of what might be on the roll. Stay tuned 👀

The house is still standing—but the ground beneath it has already shifted.

We are living in an age where what once felt permanent now leans quietly, almost imperceptibly at first. Institutions, beliefs, identities—weathered by time, yet unprepared for the storms we refused to see coming.

This image is not decay. It is revelation.

A reminder that stability is not found in structures, but in foundations. And foundations are not made of wood or stone—they are made of truth, adaptability, and awareness.

What tilts today may fall tomorrow.
What we rebuild next will define everything.

Pay attention to what’s leaning in your life.
It’s speaking before it breaks.

Theodore Roosevelt National Park – North Unit, North Dakota

This was taken in the North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. What you’re seeing is a concretion — a hardened mineral mass (often ironstone or sandstone) that formed inside sediment layers millions of years ago. Over time, erosion wore away the softer surrounding rock, leaving this rounded formation exposed in the badlands wall.

No tricks. No heavy edits. Just light, texture, and time doing what they do.

From a combat veteran’s perspective, formations like this hit different. Pressure builds it. Time shapes it. The outside erodes, but the core holds. That’s not poetic — that’s geology. And it’s real.

Shot on Nikon. Natural light. North Unit silence.
