Photography has been something of a compulsion for as long as I can remember, but I didn't get serious about it until I realized that photo-documentation was a vital part of experiencing and preserving roadside culture. I bought my first "real" camera in 1991, a semi-professional Nikon, and it served me well until 2004, when I could no longer stave off the digital tidal wave. I still have the Nikon, but memory cards have virtually replaced the need for conventional film.

I have been fortunate to have some of my photos published in various mediums, and in 2006 I teamed up with best gal Shellee Graham to launch a new site dedicated to making a wide selection of Route 66 and roadside culture images available to both individual and commercial users. The result is www.route66photographs.com. When you get a minute, link up for a tour.
