		<title>I&#8217;m Gay for Clouds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I try to keep this site photo-focused (no pun intended), so I don&#8217;t talk a lot about my background as a web designer/developer. I&#8217;ve built several websites for start up projects, going as far back as high school. But now I&#8217;m proud to announce my latest project, which is photography-related, and it&#8217;s called GayForClouds.com!

		<title>The New Office</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Leigh Davis did a great shot of Jay&#8217;s building for an article in New York Times Magazine, and I thought I&#8217;d try and emulate it. They&#8217;ve built a new building right next door since she did the shot, on the right of the frame.
 
I&#8217;m incredibly lucky, because the whole first floor of that building [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Year&#8217;s Eve</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Some good friends from my days in Florida were in the city for New Year&apos;s Eve. I had the good fortune of hanging out with them and goofing around near the madhouse that was midtown Manhattan. Here are just a few selects from the adventures.

		<title>Killer Series</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I want to shout out to Juha Arvid Helminen for his amazing photo series on some kind of dark anonymous army. The set has an incredibly satisfying consistency of subject matter, lighting, and tone, all of which are handled beautifully. I would love to be able to take pictures like these.
In other news, keep an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Commute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;ve been working for Jay Maisel for about a week and a half, and already he&#8217;s starting to rub off on me. His famous motto is &#8220;always carry a camera,&#8221; and I&#8217;ve started doing that. My formal training was very commercially focused, and so I never felt the need to take photos while I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>NYC, Jay Maisel, and SantaCon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a big month for me. I&#8217;ve been in New York, graciously staying with my good friends Chris and Leigh Anna Thompson. I had originally planned to move here in January, but something big came up, and I had to get here early.

Last week I officially became Jay Maisel&#8217;s new assistant and studio manager. [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Lonely Bonfire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I came home from Birmingham to a 40-foot bonfire today. It was a nice welcome home, except that there was no party, no beer, no music, nothing. Just a giant fire burning bright and crackly all by itself in the field between my house and the train tracks. Shane and I were heading out to [...]]]></description>

		<title>CNN&#8217;s Take on My Job</title>
		<description><![CDATA[CNN posted an article today entitled &#8220;15 Stressful Jobs That Pay Badly.&#8221; Number 8 on the list? Commercial photographer.
They fail to explain in any detail what makes it so stressful, and offer an anecdotal story about a photographer who found herself dangling off of a catwalk under a New York bridge to get the right [...]]]></description>

		<title>Downtown Philadelphia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I spent some time in downtown Philadelphia yesterday, just walking around. The lady-friend had never been, so we went on an abbreviated tour of the city. Of course, no tour  would be complete without a trip to city hall and a ride to the top of the clock tower to catch the view.

As you can [...]]]></description>
