The adventures and various works of a photographer, road tripper, former patron of the local arts, aspiring app developer, and late night coffee drinker and conversationalist.
Collecting vintage and antique photos is a pastime of mine, and I have an interest in local (mostly Dallas) history. Combining these two interests together into an exploration of early Dallas photography and photography studios thus came naturally to me. This series will cover the history of Dallas-based photography through the beginning of the 20th century, telling the story through both historically-minded blog posts and authentic historical images.
Aside from the "Ghosts" series, work also continues on a few other long-term blog projects, some of which have been in the pipeline for as long as a year or more. I expect to have these completed and published sometime during the summer. All this means that 2025 should be the best year to date for this blog, not to mention a good year for finally getting out a lot of other content that's been on the sidelines for years - more concert photos and other photo galleries, more road trip travelogs, maybe even additional old footage of the local scene (working on this!). I also expect to roll out a long-needed e-mail newsletter by the start of next week so I can (hopefully) drive engagement for the website as a whole. Overall, when it comes to projects, things have been very productive as late and will continue to be so for quite some time. I originally created this website in 2008 as a showcase for my work, but it's never really shown its true potential until now. Here's looking forward to a productive and fulfilling next chapter.
