Subversive Photography

Photography – San Jose

My passion is capturing the vitality of the Bay Area\'s many subcultures. Whether at a parade, a spontaneous moment, or a major artistic endeavor, I try to be in the thick of things and help preserve a memory. I\'ve learned fire performance with the Burning Man community; run with samba dancers and dragons; created cosplay and steampunk costumes. The vitality of each group is inspiring. Since my switch from film to digital photography fifteen years ago, the tools available keep improving. I try to keep up with that evolution, keep polishing my skills, and keep seeing the color and creativity all around us.
