Photography

There are few things that I enjoy as much as making pictures and playing with cameras. The ability to capture light and create an image is a magical experience. The first time photography really captured my imagination was in high school when we built pinhole cameras. It was a very cold day and I remember thinking how long the 45 second exposure time was. The process was magical and I still love the picture I took on that day.

Several years later the idea hit me to make a pinhole camera out of Legos. The camera was a moderate internet celebrity for a couple weeks and now it is hard to escape the label of “the guy who made a camera out of Legos.” Despite the novelty, I actually really like the images my Lego camera produces and eventually I plan on gathering them all together in some kind of book form.

Another favorite camera that I enjoy playing with is my Holga. I am a big fan of double exposures, which the Holga excels at. One of my most popular photos was a double exposure that won the “Blink of an Eye” competition which resulted in an exhibition in New York City.

If you are into photography I encourage you to follow my camera adventures at FoundPhotography.com. I am also on Flickr if that is more your style.
