Duston

By far one of my most favorite photographers ever.
EVER!

Duston Todd has a creative flair that is so unique and unconventional that I often wonder how deep the well goes that he is tapping.

I mean seriously, he must have more than one and they all seem infinite.

Maybe he has a circle of wells?

Maybe these wells of his are surrounding a sea of creative inspiration and he's draining them???

That would certainly explain his shirt. ;)

For reals though, this man never seems to run out of ideas.
After getting to know him better over the past month or so, I am learning that this is just the way his mind works.
He doesn't ever seem to try very hard to blow peoples' minds.
Truly a gifted artist and creative visionary.
His natural talent just happens.

I like ~~rubbing shoulders~~ bumping belly's with him. :)

Duston shot an amazing bridal session with Matt and Kate (who had probably my most favorite engagement shoot EVER) last night.
I came to "assist", hang out, laugh at his slightly inappropriate jokes, do his grunt work, eat his candy faster than him, and photograph him in action.
More behind the scene images from this session when the the official blog is posted.

This photo was shot at 9 o'clock pm, under a fluorescent light, outside of a 7-11 where I got a pina colada/cherry slurpee and Duston tried to be all healthy and opted for a bottle of water.
So much for drinking a milkshake.

Duston was healthy? Ha ha! Great post about an awesome person. I had the privilege of working with him last year as an intern. You highlighted some his best qualities.
I love the shot you captured of him.

crows feet are the pathways to the soul....

I totally just made that up off the top of my head.
I'll be the first to admit that it's total crap.

I like the lines and texture and lets face it you're old.
Wait we're the same age. Damn!
