Anything with a good beat that I can move to and be inspired by
Filmler
I'm in the process of making my first films right now so any movie is education for me. I love good action sequences and good mood setters. Tarantino and the Coen brothers Rock. I strive to be better though! ;-)
Televizyon
Lost, CSI, Family Guy, Arrested Developement... for some reason everytime the simpsons intro song comes on I smile and feel like my day has just gotten better! Now thats quality television! I love that such a simple thing has the ability to cheer me up no matter how bad my mood. I strive for such effects in my work to come! The ability to make the masses smile is the greatest gift anyone can have and the greatest goal attainable.
Kitaplar
I read alot, but don't have any favorites. Maybe The Agony and the Ecstasy. Anything that inspires I guess. I use books to get photo ideas and movie ideas. everything is educational even if it's bad. I can skim through the bad stuff and still get good ideas. My imagination takes it where it needs to be to entertain me.

My family and friends. I love all of you and wouldn't be me without you.
My bestfriend, who somehow manages to smile 24/7.
I have 8 brothers and sisters and all of them have achieved something great with their lives. My twin brother Ocean was a very established New Orleans artist. www.oceanclark.com He lost everything in the storm and is living in NYC now. He's sold 6,000 plus paintings to date. My sister Prairie runs one of the best art supply stores in the nation and is a great artist as well. My older brother Walt is one of the best Tattoo artists in the world and did all of my work. My brother Chad is an amazing dad and honestly has the two most well behaved and beautiful children I have ever met.
My friend David Stoupakis, who just did the cover of the KoRn CD! He's an amazing painter as well! www.davidstoupakis.com. Many of my friends have inspired me and achieved great things, Thank you all for being in my life. :-D

Photography to me is a challenge of rhythm and energy. Knowing how to evoke the desired feeling or sensation and when to capture it at its climax. A photograph is a single moment frozen for all eternity. That moment has the power to be an explosion of energy, of joy, sadness, lust, laughter, desire, hatred, love, agony and ecstasy! Anything powerful ever experienced can be frozen into one single frame and immortalized for all to see. Unlike film or video where you have time, sound, music and movement to convince an audience to feel or to understand; with a photograph you only have that one instant. They either love it or they don't, they either feel it or they pass on by. Great moments pass us all by every day. My job is to not only create, but to capture those moments and to save them for the world to see.
I love photography and have a passion for travel. I love people and love having the ability to make them happy and more confident. I live for adrenaline rushes and sexual tension. Im a well-published fashion photographer and aspiring filmmaker. Some of my magazine credits etc are listed below. My fine art photography has been shown in 42 states and 14 countries.

i suppose this should be the standard myspace "thank you for the add" comment - but i wanted to actually thank you, instead, for your art. i just spent a good amount of time pouring over your images & am enchanted by your imagination. quite vivid and lovely in all its forms....
i'm new *very* to the photo world so if you ever have a spare minute to take a look at my albums and let me know what you think i'd be so appreciative.
