Artist Bio

Beer, Bait & Ammo is my second book project in my triology of the South. Beer, Bait & Ammo documents the hunting and fishing culture along the United States coastline from Southern Texas and the Outer Banks of North Carloina. For the past four years I have moved back to my roots shooting primarily in the southern half of the U.S. The south has such rich traditions and culture. As varied and interesting as anywhere in the world.

Blues, Booze & BBQ, published by Powerhouse Books, was my first book. The book won the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Award for photography.
Recent exhibits for Blues, Booze & BBQ were in: Photo Week Washington, DC — Houston Photo Fest — Powerhouse Arena, Brooklyn —Delta Blues Museum, Clarksdale
