I shoot for love! Photographer, dad, husband, meditator, adventurer, conspiracy buff and Star Wars fan. Not necessarily in that order.

Hello #steemit,
A smidge about me, I picked up my first camera on my seventeenth birthday and have been shooting for love and money ever since! These days I am making teaching, sharing and creating photography my full-time reality!

I think my art tells more of my story than words... so without further ado here are some of my original photo illustrations.

Whelp, just realized the year is wrong in this one, I'll fix it for my post. but thought I'd leave it as my incompetence is further proof that it really is me.

Great :) Upvoted and resteemed you intro :) Looking forward to more of your pics!

Stop living in the past!

Thank you for the love @hackit !

These are most excellent!

Welcome to Steemit @jakegarn!

Thank you so much! "Most excellent" -Keanu Reeves as Ted.

I really like some of the concepts and effects you are working with here. Especially "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" Thanks!

Thank you @visualcontent for taking the time, I dig your work too! Have you ever just listened to the lyrics of sounds of silence and realized that Simon & Garfunkel were describing the modern day?

The album is definitely timeless. Case in point, I got to first base repeatedly and 2nd base occasionally while the LP [played in my girlfriends basement 48 years ago LOL

Love your taste in women, art, and Star Wars.

May the force be with you @joeyarnoldvn !
