I am an artist and photographer currently enrolled at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) working as a Photography major.
I love photography. I've only picked it up recently in my art-making career, but it has quickly become my favorite kind of artistic medium. It started as a hobby that I wanted to pursue. I took class after class, learned the basics, and now am going to college to continue learning. Now at MICA as a full-time student, I can't wait to better my art and share it with the world.
I thank you for taking the time to look at my site and through my photographs.
I am first and foremost an artist. That is what I am trained in and that is what I work with. Photography is, from my studies, one of the only true art forms that require a multitude of different aspects all at once. Lighting, composition, content, angle, patience. Combine that with all the technical "mumbo-jumbo" and you have the ability to create something magical.

Comparatively to his entire art-making career, photography is a recent venture for Zach. Despite being relatively new to the medium, he is persistent and determined to learn all that he can about this medium and how he can apply it to all of his art-making practices. Now at MICA as a full-time student, he continues his journey to constantly improve his craft and hopes to one day share it with the world.

If a plastic skeleton can, and if a fully CGI person can, why not a puppet?
That question was the impetus of the @infamousandreablair project, an idea that paired my fascination with influencer and internet-celebrity culture with my love of puppetry. Half-entrepreneur and half-celebrity, these influencers create content designed to promote themselves and their lifestyles, or the lifestyle they want others to think they have. Everything is controlled with a fine-toothed comb, staged to high-hell, and highly edited to make these people seem as flawless as possible.
It’s all bullshit, but it is in no one’s best interest to call out the bullshit.
Being a puppet, in that way, is the ultimate kind of bullshit - a puppet is immediately a character fully controlled by an outside force, plus, if done right, no one will even really pay attention to the fact she's a puppet.

Andrea Blair
Andrea is a character that stemmed from the traditional "Valley Girl" stereotype but became the larger-than-life internet content creator she's known for.
"bio"
She always means well and truly believes she uses her platform for positivity but is also a raging narcissist who takes advantage of the following. She falls in love with the popularity - posting is only to fuel the flames of her own self-image and self-worth, not to actually influence positively, but she isn’t doing that consciously.
She is naturally pretty, knows it, and flaunts it - someone you could see as a Bachelor contestant, or, better yet, someone who goes on the show to get a national spotlight.
Take a look at some of her Instagram content in the gallery below.
