My Shitty Financial Situation

I hate writing blogs like this.  Some folks get the impression you’re whining. Or you’re being weak. Plus, I don’t like people knowing my personal business. Yet, I know some friends would want to know about my recent bad luck.  So, what has been going on in my life?  Back in August, I was laid…

Lesbian Sex Dolls

One night, as I photographed Downtown Sanford’s Manikins, I noticed two sex dolls. One was positioned as if she was “eating carpet”. Tom Morris, Manikins owner, pointed them out to me. So, I photographed the “carpet munching”. I took two photos. On Facebook, this was friends’ favorite.

Cinco de Mayo Photos in Downtown Orlando

Cinco de Mayo (Fifth of May) once happened during a nightlife photo gig. I was photographing various spots in Downtown Orlando.

Photos from Orlando’s Now-Closed Sandwich Bar

Art Show at Nora’s Sugar Shack

The Opening of Will’s Pub In-House Kitchen

Last week, I was asked to photograph the opening of Will's Pub new kitchen. Will's, an Orlando live band venue, was usually a booze-only spot. Yet, social distancing rules put a damper on both the live entertainment and the crowds. With fewer money spenders, Will's teamed up with local eatery Swine and Sons. The team…

He was a dear friend of mine.  Every time I posted something on Facebook, he had a crazy answer for it.  I agreed with his views on how Orlando peeps treat artists.  When it comes to…
