Please enjoy this token, while I'm trying to get my groove back and re-organise my entire life.

It’s been a long, long time since I updated, but I should probably talk about how I no longer go to Conventions (plus Rockwood), and why, and how that is probably the main reason I have moved on from wanting to be a con-photographer. Basically, you may know I loved it to bits. I still do. I love the community, the travel, the hotels, the heat, the entire atmosphere at conventions, not to mention…

The End of the Con-Circuit

The End of the Con-Circuit

I should probably talk about how I no longer go to Conventions (plus Rockwood), and why, and how that is probably the main reason I have moved on from wanting to be a con-photographer.

Basically, y’all know I loved it to bits. I still do. I love the community, the travel, the hotels, the heat, the entire atmosphere at conventions, not to mention how I took my best photos there! Especially the…

When White Men Photograph Black African Tribes

There's something the photography community needs to talk about: the way we go about the documentation of tribes.

There’s something the photography community—and especially big magazines and editors—need to talk about: the way we go about the documentation of tribes.

The internet burned me out

Blogged: The internet burned me out

I’ve known for a while now that I won’t come back in the sense I thought. I kept thinking for far too long, maybe one day I will put in the work to really make these accounts work.

But the truth is, I don’t want to and I don’t need to. Because I am not looking for that sort of success. It’s become overly clear to me around New Year’s, and I’ve suspected it for quite some time before. I don’t…
