What type of camera do you use and do you have a favorite lens?
Once I went digital in 2001, I switched over to Canon since my business partners in my photography agency, Orange Photography, were Canon guys. I guess my favorite lens is the 70-200 for physique work.
What's your favorite show to cover and why?
I like shooting with new folks so something like the USA's is really great. It's in Las Vegas and it's warm out (well, often scorching hot!) but there are some fun options for shoots out there and it's a big show so usually a lot of rising stars to work with.
What's a bit of Gene X trivia that people would be quite surprised to find out about you?
I grew up in Alabama. I don't have a Southern accent for the most part but if you get a few drinks in me and I'm around other Southerners, it'll come back.
I see that you've become a pinball wizard. How did you get started with this and can you tell me more about your involvement here?
Actually I was visiting a female friend in Portland and after she got off work one day we dropped by a bar that happened to have a pinball tournament going on. I decided to enter just for kicks and found it super fun (even though I played terribly).
The first game I played there was Iron Man pinball and I just bought that machine this past week. I've since played in some big tournaments and will actually be hosting my first tournament this weekend. It's a ton of fun, and I've even incorporated it into some physique photos.
Where is the best place for fans to check out your work?
A lot of my work is on FT Video where I've collaborated with James Cook for some time. Once I started the photography agency, I had to pull back some from the physique work and James offered to keep maintaining the Genex Magazine site and integrate some of the shoots into his site.
What is your contact info should someone wish to book a shoot?
People can reach me through Orange Photography or through email me at [email protected]
