FREEDMINDS

I had the pleasure of shooting the lookbook for Freedminds last month. When Kumasi and I talked about it I already had an idea in mind. I've really been influenced from watching old Film Noir movies lately and I wanted to do something story like. I just felt right for the shoot. Check the website edit below, check the site for some gear, check there blog out too while your at it.

COMING TO A CLOSE

I'm trying to put a close to my new years resolution and all I have left to develope is a few rolls of 120, a hand full of 35 and a shit load of scanning. Nothing a few late nights won't solve. I will wait on scanning the medium format because my all-in-one scanner/copier/printer just doesn't do that well with scanning negatives.

These photos are from a contest in East Oakland put on by Roughneck Skateboards. At the time I just got a roll film back for my old Kodak and wanted to take it for a spin.

ANYTHING YOU COULD GIVE IS GREATLY APRECIATED

SUPPORT A WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE LIVING SPACE FOR KAMON

As the youngest child of Amon and Cina Sherriff in a blended family of ten children, Kamon Sherriff Ross learned very early the importance of family, cooperation and caring. In his 20 years he has proven himself to be an obedient and loving son, a helpful and kind sibling, as well as a concerned and loyal friend.

His quiet confidence, easy intelligence and 6’5” athletic frame makes him a standout in any crowd. Although quite skilled as a basketball player he chose to focus his attention on academics rather than organized sports.

In 2008, he graduated from Stone Mountain High School in the top ten percent of his class, as a member of the National Beta Club and the National Honor Society. He was also an AP Merit Scholar and a Hope Scholarship recipient.

He entered Southern Polytechnic University in Marietta, Georgia as a software engineer major. In his five semesters there he has maintained a 3.5 GPA and a place on the Dean’s list.

Saturday, November 6, 2010 Kamon’s life was forever changed when a fall from a 3 story balcony left him with a broken spine. He is now recovering and graciously accepting the changed body and the new life that he must now live.

The Sherriff/Ross/Smith family would greatly appreciate any contribution that you could make to help us modify the basement in our split-level home to accommodate Kamon's new lifestyle.

Please keep us in your prayers. Gratitude, Peace and Blessings to you all!
