First off, let me start by saying I am not new to DeviantArt, though I do appreciate the couple of welcomes I received. :smile: I do have another account on which I've left my old photos and other artwork that I've posted over the couple of years I used it. (~fadedconformity) However, I've turned over a new leaf........rather planted an entirely new tree.

In two days I will have been in Florida for two weeks.
I moved here recently by myself with plans to gain my year'r residency and attend UCF in the fall of 2007. I will be majoring in Advertising/Public Relations and minoring in photography. It's been quite the adventure so far, and to quote a favorite comedian I will only say, "To the top!"

I was lucky enough to find an immediate contact via DA and was very recently personally introduced to the real world of photojournalism and real-life photography. Protests, political activists- people with passion. It was like watching a favorite show all my life, learning all I could about it-but watching it on a screen that got bigger with time-and then suddenly, I'm on the set.

I am officially on the stage.

This account is solely dedicated to my black and white...portraitures...documentation. Passion photography. I love people, and I especially love the expressions of people and the mysterious stories their every wrinkle, crease and dimple teases you with.

So enjoy!
This is just the beginning....it may be slow going at times, but I promise I'll be around.
