CHANNING

I try to blend in, but sometimes I show up on disposable cameras given to guests.

People have mentioned they don’t recall me present at their weddings. A mountain of photographic evidence suggests otherwise, but that’s exactly the way I want it. This, however, doesn’t mean you’re not curious about the guy you’ve invited to be around you and your family (whether you remember him being there or not).

Moving frequently as a kid prepared me to settle quickly into new situations. I was born in North Carolina and like to identify southern, although I’d never really pass if I still lived there. I married someone from Massachusetts, which means I’ve made my last move. Brooke and I have a son. His name is Ellis, and we think he is hilarious. The amount of joy in our home has grown dramatically since he moved in 10 years ago. I love folding clothes and watching the English Premier League on the weekend. I love surfing. I also love watching a weekday matinee in an empty theater at Kendall Cinema.

I look forward to learning more about you and continuing the conversation. I love photography, but I love getting to know people just as much.

Me and my family from over the years.

I love raiding the fridge after a wedding. Once I found Kowloon a neighbor dropped off for me.
