Antique Love Seat Restoration

This is the story about the restoration of an antique love seat I found in the garbage. As a matter of fact, it wasn't originally in the garbage, but in a garage sale. I just didn't want to pay $65 for it at the garage sale, so I drove past the sale site later in the day and found the same love seat in the garbage pile by the street.

I teamed up with Alan Karzen Restoration to create a portfolio of images that documents the complete restoration of this beautiful piece of furniture. This photoset highlights the progress from start to finish as well as the very talented craftsmen that helped to bring back the beauty of this piece of furniture.

Phone Caminals

I apparently take a lot of snapshots of animals using my phone cam. No, the animals weren't using my phone cam...I used my phone cam to take snapshots of the animals. So I made a photoset out of the snapshots.

When Worlds Collide

It's taken me a long time to publish this set simply because I didn't know what words to use to accompany the photos. After much thought I decided that I will set the story up and just allow the photos to tell their own story.

This photoset tells the story of a conflict that occured in the aftermath of the Chicago Pride Parade on June 24, 2006.
