Ross actually graduated in December, and I should disclaim that he was my roommate, but he’s redone his website and it’s fantastic. Ross has a great sense of irony and light in his photos. They are smart, compassionate, insightful and original. Anyone looking for a freelancer would do themselves a favor to hire him. His work inspires me as much as any established professional. Another reason I came to school here.

on another note since I no longer have a local lab to process my film it will be a few weeks till I get home to my trusty Glen Ellyn, IL lab and process the many rolls of personal images I’ve been piling up. It’s nice and gives me a chance to showcase people who make way better pictures anyways.
