Last Updated: May 4, 2025 – May the Fourth Be With You!
This page is updated periodically with my current focus on my work and where I’m headed. Based in Vancouver, Washington and wandering wherever.
Ending the New Book Project
I’d been writing a new book; it was to be a followup to my book on Artificial Intelligence and Photography that was published in late 2021.
For a variety of reasons, the new book isn’t going to be a book. Most of the material will find its way into publication in other forms. A lot will likely end up on my YouTube channel. Be sure you’re subscribed!
The Videos
The YouTube channel is coming back to life. I’d love to have you subscribe to my channel to help me boost the growth and turn it into a viable channel for photography information.
Need something to whet your whistle? I wish Flickr a Happy 21st Birthday:
Continuations
My weekly email, Focusing Photography, ships every Sunday. If you want some insight and analysis in your inbox, you can subscribe here. In general, I write something thoughtful and insightful about the direction of our industry and share 3-5 other relevant links or pieces of information photographers should be aware of, with a brief thought about each.
The Events
I’m now booking through 2025 (and into 2026!) for speaking at photography events (both in-person and virtual) as well as serving as a juror for mage competitions. Drop me an email for more information or to get a copy of my current speaking information.
We’ve got some great momentum right now with the Professional Photographers of Washington. Last month I was elected as President and I’m excited to serve photographers in the state. I’m also in the first year of a three-year term as an elected member of PPA’s governing Council.

The Pictures
As usual, I’m doing a bit of photo work for small businesses, startups, and individuals, so let’s chat and make it happen.
