About Chad

"I sure hope you shot this on a Holga...and not a Hasselblad, waste of $$$. Now try harder."

"I don't like the people and the staged shots as much as the found shots. William Eggleston never had to pose much in his shots,W. E. took one exposure and moved on."

"Building buildinging building Give him a few years. Yet he has it today.Maturity. Great lighting."
