A Good Day at Goblin Valley
Wednesday, May 8th, 2019
Goblin Valley is an amazing place. I’ve been there several times and have photographed there every time I visited. But it’s a somewhat difficult place to do photos. There is usually strong sunlight and the bright highlights and dark shadows make it hard to capture the real feel of the place. But this past October […]
One More Time With Daisy
Thursday, April 25th, 2019
Daisy Von is a fine subject for portraits as well as figure photos, so I made a few of those too while we were shooting at the park. And we wandered around to some replica pioneer/Native American shelters. The lake in this park also offered a nice background. That’s it for this shoot with Daisy. Don’t […]
Daisy In The Park
Friday, April 19th, 2019
More photos of Daisy Von at one of my favorite local waterfalls. I’ve photographed at this spot many times with many models. I gave Daisy the challenge to find some new poses for the spot. I think she did an excellent job of working the location and making her poses fit with the background. And […]
Woodland Daisy
Monday, April 8th, 2019
This was my first shoot with a new model, Daisy Von. She contacted me about doing a shoot and I am very happy that I said yes and we made it happen. It was a good day to be outside, so we headed to some of my favorite local spots just as the sun was […]
More From Vermont
Monday, March 25th, 2019
In addition to Ayn I also worked with a local Vermont model while I was on this shoot. Chrystal Hutchins did a great job and we got some fine photos both with her and with her and Ayn together. This waterfall was really lovely. And that’s it for this shoot.
Ayn and the Green Mountain State
Monday, March 18th, 2019
Some photos from a great road-trip shoot with Ayn in Vermont. Vermont is an incredibly beautiful state. It’s hard to miss with the lovely landscapes everywhere. Add a great model like Ayn and results are pretty much guaranteed. More to come from this trip.
French PHOTO Strikes Again
Thursday, February 28th, 2019
Once again one of my photos has been selected as a winner in the annual contest sponsored by French PHOTO magazine. I’ve lost track, but I think this may be about the 18th time I’ve had a winner in this contest. The magazine claims that it’s the largest photo contest in the world, with around […]
Variations on a Place
Saturday, February 23rd, 2019
I did several photos of Areia at this one spot at Starved Rock State Park. I found the different feel of these interesting, so instead of just picking one, I decided to share the series with you. I guess the one above is the “classic” photo with Areia in a pose. But I really like […]
A Favorite Model in a Favorite Place
Wednesday, February 20th, 2019
Starved Rock State Park, not far from Chicago, is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in the US, if not the world. I love visiting and shooting there. It’s always a bit of a workout. There are steps, sometimes wood, sometimes carved out of the stone, that lead down into the canyons. As they […]
Is It Hot Enough For You?
Wednesday, February 13th, 2019
Nevaeh Lleh and I visited some other spots out in the desert in addition to Joshua Tree. It was very hot all the time we were in the desert. Hot as in highs around 115 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures like that limited what we were able to do. We did nearly all our shooting in the early […]
