About Bud

My name is Bud Simpson.
No one is actually named Bud, but if your name was Orville . . .
I am not an expert on most things technical, but rather a high-functioning user. How something works is way less important than how I can use it to my advantage. Everything is a tool.
My background is in commercial photography, mainly in catalog production, products, corporate and annual reports.
I came to photography as the son of snap-shooting parents, and with the help of a couple of good friends and a lot of hard work, I was able to make a comfortable living photographing cans, bottles and the occasional corporate brass hat. I learned my chops shooting color transparency film in all formats, and have adapted that level of craft to shooting digitally.
I closed the studio in Kansas City a few years ago, and now my wife and I travel the country full-time. I now have the flexibility to work on the projects that I want to work on - an ongoing portrait project, model headshots and tests, and the things that I find along the way that speak to me.
For 2019 - Houston, Texas; Colorado, Wyoming, and then on to West Glacier, Montana for the summer. If you'd like to discuss working with me, either as a model, portrait subject, or a local expert, I'd love to hear from you.
