This is the first frame I shot with my classic 35mm camera. I found it at a antique store here in OKC. Its a beautiful Pentax k1000. The thing I love about this camera is the fact that there is not one thing digital or electronic about it. It is a machine! It forces me to think more when I am making a picture. At the same time it offers a freedom that I didn't expect to find. I also don't think it's possible to recreate the look of film digitally. Sure, you can get close but in the end its really just a reproduction. My intention is to look to the past and bring forward a technique, style and art to my photography that I find more than beautiful. 

When I hold my new (old) camera in my hands I can't help but think of the tradition of the great portrait artists of the past who labored away creating some of the greatest masterpieces of the 20th century with nothing more than wit, smarts and a simple machine in their hands. I aspire to the same thing. I aspire to be more creative and find inspiration in the past, present and the future. I aspire to give my clients something outside of the box. Sure it may not be for everyone and while digital photography will encompass the majority of my photographic workflow, I am going to reserve exclusive "retro" sessions shooting with film only! I am really excited about offering these sessions! Contact me to book a session and lets make some art.

Last month I had the chance to go on a camping trip with one of my oldest and best buddies. It was great being in the beautiful mountains of Colorado. Sitting here in the heat and humidity of Oklahoma makes me want to be back there now. I hope you enjoy a few photos from the trip.

Wow! What a week! I had the awesome opportunity to travel through the Rocky Mountains with one of my closest friends. It was absolutely amazing! Being outside, face to face with the grand majesty of nature has always been one of my favorite things. I have always been drawn to the mountains, any mountains. Crested Butte, Grand Junction, Durango, and Santa Fe... are all right up my alley. I thrive when camping by a river on the side of a mountain. I am most in my element when I can see a billion stars flickering and just breath the cool fresh air. Such a place makes me feel lucky and humble to be a photographer.

I am selling select prints from this trip that I love and think would look great on a wall. Each photo is numbered to make it easy to select your favorites. Every 11x17 print will come framed and ready to hang on your wall. The great news is that you can have a piece of original art made by me for you for only $100! Just send me an email and I will give you all the info and details about how you can get your prints.

There is so much beauty to appreciate and protect in our great country. I encourage you to take the time this summer to get out and see something. Camp out, hike, swim, ride a bike and enjoy what is ours.

This photo is the San Miguel Mission in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Built in 1610, it's the oldest church still in use in North America.

The spirit of Ansel Adams lives within Justin Voight! Fantastic photos, I'm completely jealous that you were able to go to such a beautiful place like that and camp out. If I went, I'd have to bring my camera and rifle...ha,ha!

Justin Voight:

Thanks for the compliment, Brent! I would say out of the two you would get better and more beautiful shots with your camera!
