I am an artist living in Albany, Oregon working in the medium of photography. I first learned photography while attending Oregon State University's JumpstART program, a pre-college of the arts for high school students. I utilize digital photography, film, and alternative process - shooting with darkroom paper, ortho litho film, and currently wet plate collodion with antique large format view cameras.

I am a 2023 Critical Mass Finalist and my work has been selected for recognition by the Smithsonian Photography Awards and the Palm Springs Photo Festival. My work has also been featured with Der Spiegel, Bento, ZEITjUNG, Flavorwire, and Edge of Humanity Magazine. I have been exhibited at Blue Sky Gallery in Portland Oregon, PhotoPlace Gallery's online show, The Curated Fridge, and LoosenArt in Millepiani Gallery in Rome Italy.

My Daughter Breaks All The Girl Stereotypes And I Try To Capture That In My Photographs (26 Pics)

Anyone could take a photo of a pretty little girl in a pretty dress standing in a pretty field of flowers, with a big smile on her face or laughing... I see it all the time on facebook... but then, that would just be a stereotypical photo of a little girl taken by a "Photographer". I'll keep that to public facebook groups for people searching for a kitsch photographer to take basic family photos for $50 a session.

People sometimes ask me "Why does Haley always look upset or unhappy in her photos." Some may think that she doesn't like taking them or that she is just upset all the time. Nope. Not the case. I don't always like the over exaggerated smile. Not in art. If it is a real genuine smile it may work. But back to Haley. She loves taking the photos. Half the time she asks me if we can take some, and then sometimes we are just taking some, and sometimes it is planned. In most cases she really knows the difference between a snapshot and a photograph, I don't even have to mention it. She just knows. We take funny selfies or goofy photos as much as any other kid.

"There are not many smiling people in my pictures. I've never asked anyone to smile. Almost never.... You almost hear a sigh of relief when you tell someone they don't have to smile. Where did "smile for the camera" come from? It's a tic. A way of directing attention to the camera. "Look at the birdie." The smile is a component of family pictures. Mothers don't want to see their children looking unhappy. They are canned smiles. Forced. It took me years to understand that I equated asking someone to smile with asking them to do something false. " - Annie Leibovitz

To quote some photographers I admire: Annie Leibovitz - "There are not many smiling people in my pictures. I've never asked anyone to smile. Almost never.... You almost hear a sigh of relief when you tell someone they don't have to smile. Where did "smile for the camera" come from? It's a tic. A way of directing attention to the camera. "Look at the birdie." The smile is a component of family pictures. Mothers don't want to see their children looking unhappy. They are canned smiles. Forced. It took me years to understand that I equated asking someone to smile with asking them to do something false. My daughter Sarah has the most beautiful smile. When you see it occurring so naturally in children you hate to see it lost. I crumbled inside one day when I saw Sarah fake a smile." I leave you with this quote and a couple pictures that go along with it: "What is truth in photography? It can be told in a hundred different ways. Every thirtieth of a second when the shutter snaps, its cap

This was the third time or so she helped me change the breaks in our vehicles. I break the bolts for her and compress the calipers, she does the rest, including putting the pads in.

My wife and daughter are American Indian. Assimilation is: the process of becoming similar to something. The cultural assimilation of Native Americans was an assimilation effort by the United States to transform Native American culture to European–American culture. I also consulted other natives from multiple tribes, they all agreed that this is the best term, however other terms do also apply.

Ohhh... The dress code. :( They are getting so bad these days. Especially for girls. There have been several cases where girls were punished, had to change or expelled because they were "distracting the males". If boys can't focus because we're showing our shoulders, that ain't our fault.

I always found it .... mildly disturbing that the US is censoring perfectly normal things like nakedness and such but will allow small kids to watch violence in movies and games.
