Thank you!
It’s hard to believe two months have already passed and the show has come to an end. To all who made it out to see I’ve Been Here Before - thank you for your support. It means a lot to all of five of us.
I was thrilled to see so many of my photographs presented exactly how I had envisioned in such a great space, and to share work with such talent artists / friends. It can be difficult for photographers to find a place for their images alongside work from other disciplines, and I was proud to see how well this all worked together. Special thanks to Katie Temple for her vision that made this opportunity possible!
That wind's gonna come and blow my blues away
I spent a (very) warm weekend exploring the High Plains of Colorado along with a few stops in Nebraska, Kansas, and New Mexico. It was nearly 105 degrees when I visited Courthouse and Jail Rocks on Friday afternoon and the heat never really let up except following a thunderstorm that I encountered in Comanche National Grassland.
Some photographs from the trip…

On with the show...
Thank you to everyone who came out this weekend for the openings of I’ve Been Here Before at Gallery 1516 here in Omaha. It great to see so many friendly faces and to share never-before-seen photographs in such a wonderful environment.
The show will be on display until August 28. Click here for more information.
The photographs that I am showing date back as far as 2013, when I first started exploring the Oglala National Grassland in earnest. There are four prints from that project, titled Oglala, on display in black and white. Since then, I’ve been wandering the Great Plains and taking a lot of photos that are slowly coming into shape as one project. I am experimenting with grouping the images as seen in this show - like subjects and compositions together in a Becher-inspired manner.
If you’re able to view I’ve Been Here Before, I hope you enjoy it.
