A Picture in Words started as a lark on J.R. Blackwell’s Flickr stream. I liked using a story to make people see deeper into a photograph. For awhile, it stayed on Flickr.

Eventually, I began shooting photos more regularly, both for fun and to further develop skills useful to my day job.  Even more eventually, I needed a place to put them.

I posted the first entry in August 2009.  Then, like all good bloggers, I lapsed for several months. I moved to Los Angeles in January 2010, and started it again.

Now I post photos and stories (or essays) semi-regularly. Sometimes I even collaborate.


FOR BEST RESULTS: take a few moments to look at the picture. Figure out what’s happening in it for you. Then read the story.


WHO AM I?
I’m a film director based out of Los Angeles.  I also post at another, more obviously-named website.

I have email.
