On Thursday January 8th, @katewakefieldmusic performed the first of a series of string instrument performances hosted by @mrlrichmond, Strings in the Stacks, a showcase of stringed instrument music by various regional artists.
Kate’s unique blend of classical cello and vocals mixed with modern looping and effects create ethereal and emotional soundscapes.

Live figure drawing. December 11, 2025.

So. These are incredibly behind, BUT here are some photos and portraits of December’s figure drawing of @alixwhitstaff hosted at @oblivionindiana and led by @benetorious.
I’ve been using rented equipment the past month to explore some different processes and challenge myself a bit more. Doing this primarily with a fix lens camera was certainly differnt but I did supplement with my more conventional portrait setup at some points.
Images are captured on an either a Leica Q2 with the fixed 28mm lens or a Sony a1 with 50GM or Samyang 135.

On December 13th, despite the cold and snow, Jacob Abshire was hosted by Oblivion for a pop up.
It was incredibly insightful to learn about Jacob’s creative process and hear him talk about his work and technique. His graphite and technical pencil drawings are incredibly impressive, and the pure amount of talent can’t be overstated.
Here are a few images to capture just a fraction of Jacob’s humble and approachable personality and awe inspiring artwork.

Hey all, I’ve gotten some prints in of some pieces I’ve done over the last few years that fall outside my typical event and music work.
Selling prints and photos as pieces of art is new for me, so I’ve selected some pieces that resonate with me to start.
We’ll see how this path develops.
Thank you all. -tg

Open Sketch Club at @oblivionindiana
I don’t really do well with sketching, so I just take pictures of everyone else as they work.
On a bit of a personal note, I’ve been in a bit of a slump with my creative work and questioning my skill in my own discipline, so I’ve been putting myself in more unfamiliar settings and forcing myself to using different and new tools to try and jumpstart some kind of creative eureka moment.
I’ve borrowed a Leica Q2 to force myself to try and both work within its confines, and slow myself down a bit (also it’s a Leica). All these images are taken with said camera, and I’ve become quite fond of it in only the few hours I’ve had to get familiar with it.
I find the wider fixed focal length makes me be a bit closer and more social, it also makes me think more broadly as to what around me adds to the story.
I’m not sure it’ll cure all the aliments, but I do think it’ll help retrain a decade or so of self imposed limitations due to bad habits and lazy techniques. It’s making me be more intentional and maybe letting me know, I don’t have to take 4000 images every time I get the camera out. As with much of my creative works, it’s still a work in progress.
Thank you all for being so great. -tg

At the end of November, @oblivionindiana hosted @cruxx.wtf for an experimental set as part of their winter holiday pop up.
I, however, didn’t get photos done until now…
Anyway, here’s some shots of Cruxx with my own experimental process and practices mixed in.

Huge thank you to @robertscamera and @leicacamerausa for hosting a photo walk and giving many local photographers like me an opportunity to get hands on with some truly aspirational equipment for a few hours.
Absolutely fantastic time with some amazingly creative, talented, and wonderful people.

My name’s Taylor. I’ve been taking pictures for over a decade. I focus on capturing the essence of a moment wholistically. My work stands on it’s own as individual images, but really shines when my photos are seen in there complete collection.
My my goal is to always produce the best work possible, and create images that blend technical expertise, human compassion, and a little bit of magic.
