PHOTOJOURNALIST, DOCUMENTARY ARTIST, AND MEDIA EDUCATOR Thanks for visiting my website. I am a photojournalist, documentary
photographer, filmmaker, and media educator. I currently live in Portland, Oregon.
Please have a look around. Click the links above and below to view examples of my work, my resume, and my contact information.
You can keep and eye on my current work at the RABBIT blog. You can see my recently published RABBIT book, which weaves a lyrical narrative of 14 years of searching for serenity and contentment in life through the eyes of the fictional photographer JACK RABBIT. This book presents more than 75 black and white photographs from 6 different journeys on 4 different continents. You can also look at my first book of photography - ONE SUMMER ACROSS AMERICA - which documents my 3-month wandering across America by greyhound bus during the summer of 2001. This is my tribute to one of my artistic heroes: Robert Frank (and includes an afterword by him). Copies of both of these books can be purchased by contacting me at bobbyfoto@earthlink.net, and by following the links above. You can explore my autobiographical work-in-progress RABBIT. You can look at images from my current PORTLAND PROJECT. You can also look at galleries from other projects including: STREET MUGGINGS (New York City, 2003-04), SOUTHEAST ASIA (2001-02); ACROSS AMERICA BY GREYHOUND (summer 2000), FROM MY CAR WINDOW (Atlanta 1999) SILENT PRAYERS (from Latin America, 1996-97), and images from my multi-media documentary DREAMS, DESPAIR AND THE COCA-COLA OLYMPIC CIRCUS (Atlanta, 1996). And you can look at the work that I am most proud of, the work of my students in the OUR VOICES project, which I founded in Atlanta, Georgia. OUR VOICES ATLANTA teaches homeless and transitional adults traditional black & white photography as a means of artistic empowerment, to encourage their positive self-esteem, and to build community. OUR VOICES continues in Atlanta under the new leadership of Maria Watts. I am currently in the process of developing a second branch of OUR VOICES in Portland, Oregon. Stay tuned to the OUR VOICES website for more information the future. I continue to update this website and my blog with new photo galleries, images and videos regularly, so please return often. Thanks again for visiting. Enjoy. Bobby contact me: bobbyfoto@earthlink.net
