First things first: why Ugly Hugo, Hugo?
Well, for one, it wasn't taken and it sounds a little better than the other available names like Hugo_1234B. Secondly... it's ridiculous... and I'm ridiculous. So it's a reminder that if you don't take yourself too seriously, you might accidentally have a little fun.
I won't bore you with my life story; I'd just like to take this space to thank all of the people who made this possible. My parents for taking me on vacation and putting a Pentax Asahi K1000 in my hands. My beautiful wife/assistant who helps me on location and doesn't complain when I "studio" the living room. All of the photographers and models who have lent their advice and talent to my ever-growing portfolio.
And lastly, thanks to you visitors and customers. My goal has always been to share this with the world, and now I am.
