Bud Johnson
Photography, AI, and useful things worth building.
This site is the home for the actual work: photography, practical AI guides, live tools, public experiments, and the writing that ties it all together. If you want the short version, start with one of the four lanes below.
Photography
Wedding and brand work Trusted event coverage, portraits, and the two photography brands this site points to.AI
Learn the useful parts Start with CustomGPTs and Codex. Skip the hype and get to something working.Projects
Live tools and public builds Apps, workflow tools, and experiments that are real enough to show.Writing
AI notes and journal entries Two lanes: practical AI writing and more personal work, life, and family notes.Current Focus
Building in public, but keeping it useful.
The strongest thing on the site right now is that it is turning into a real operating hub instead of a brochure. Projects now have proper pages. AI material is becoming more teachable. The writing side is getting cleaner. That is the direction.
