Ryan Adams is by far one of my favorite musicians of all time. He writes like it's his job (aka, he writes a lot of songs), and his talent can not be measured with words.

A little over a year ago, he made a documentary that followed his recording of the album "September" (the songs of which winded up being split between the albums "Cold Roses" and "Jacksonville City Nights").

The documentary is very good, and can be viewed in it's entirety on YouTube....or you can just watch it here:

If you don't have the newest Josh Ritter album, "The Historical Conquest of Josh Ritter", you should buy it very, very soon.

Genius.

Here are a few of my favorite people:

Branden is not only one of my closest friends, but he is also going to take my place at A Bryan Photo next year. Branden has a wonderful girlfriend named Lindsey, who was featured in the last entry. While Lindsey was away last summer, Branden wanted to send her a picture. I had just gotten a new/old camera from my brother. This is what came out:



Bob has been mentioned many times on this blog. He's a stud photographer and a great friend. Here's a picture I took of him when we were in Tampa:



Josh is a pretty class-A guy. Not only is he an amazing drummer (in the band The Triceratops), but he's also a brilliant mind. For a good read, check out his blog. This is a shot a took of him before one of the Triceratops' shows:

I came to a point in my life a few weeks back, in which I realized a very simple and true fact: I know a lot of really beautiful girls (and I do not use the word "beautiful" lightly in this instance). Being a photographer, I look at this as a very specific blessing. Why it has taken me this long to put a shoot together, I have no idea. All I know is that two weeks ago I was able to put one together.

I would like to give a special thanks to Charlie, Erin, Chelsea, Lindsey, and Celine for allowing me to do this.

Here is my favorite of each girl:

Charlie


Erin


Chelsea

"An artist has got to be careful never really to arrive at a place where he thinks he's at somewhere. You always have to realize that you're constantly in the state of becoming, you know? And as long as you can stay in that realm, you'll sort of be alright."
- Bob Dylan

A few weeks ago, I helped host a concert for A Bryan Photo featuring the amazing Katie Herzig. The concert went wonderfully, and before the show, Bryan and I took Katie out for a few shots.

Here are a couple of my favorites:
