Hi! Thanks for visiting. I'm an American photographer living in Buenos Aires. These are photos from the blog I kept on my site from 2003 to 2009. I now have redesigned the home page to just show a portfolio of my current work. I also blog at BuenosAiresPhotographer.com where I post my baires snapshots.

 

DIY Passport Photo

I need a new passport and hence a new photo. You can do it yourself, rather than pay $10 for some horrible polaroid. The State Department's Guidelines outline how the lighting and the composition need to be. This article from ephotozine talks about editing you need to do in photoshop. The best part is that I can fit six of these on a 4x6 print that costs me $.19 at the photostore. Actually, the best part is that I can take 50 pictures and pick the one I like best.

I have to thank Aaron [above] for taking the pictures of me. We did it on Saturday while checking out art galleries in Chelsea. There's lot of great spaces with plain white backgrounds and even lighting.

Hi. I'm a 33 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. Currently I'm posting most of my pictures on BuenosAiresPhotographer.com. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.
