Whether it be photography, design, film, or audio, I want to blow the minds of anyone who experiences my work. I strive for                                                                                          excellence. Self expression is held in the highest of my regards.”  Loughridge shoots to bend the                                                                                        rules of art and movement, while incorporating that which is the human experience.
