Down the Slots
July 31st, 2023
The next few posts will be from a trip to the desert southwest, specifically a day hike down some slot canyons with three wonderful models, Cheryl, Eden and Gillian, and my old friend, Dave Rudin.
We were in Wirepass Canyon which leads down to a junction with Buckskin Gulch. Some say that Buckskin Gulch is the longest and deepest slot canyon in the world…others say in the US. I don’t know if that’s true, but it is a beautiful place and is certainly very deep.
I’m always very careful about the weather when I go into a slot canyon. Flash floods can come without warning and are extremely deadly. There’s really no way out if a flood comes, and a flash flood in one of these canyons is just not survivable. Two men from the area where I live died in these canyons just this year. Caution is required. Rain 100 miles away can produce a flood.
I’m planning several more posts from this day in the slots.
Behind the Scenes
July 28th, 2023
The last few posts have been from shoots we did when my old friend, Dave Rudin, came for a visit.
I took a few snaps with my cell phone while Dave was working with Carrie and Brandy.
Fine Brandy
July 27th, 2023
A few more photos from this shoot…this time it’s all Brandy. This from the cabin where we were staying before heading out at dawn.
And here’s the lovely Brandy down in one of the canyons.
I did a few variations on this setting. Brandy looks great in all of them. Which do you like best?
And one more of Brandy from the cabin.
Starved Rock
July 26th, 2023
A few photos from a trip to Starved Rock outside Chicago. My lovely models, Areia and Brandy, are more friends than models. They pretty much only model for me and don’t have online portfolios.
But they do a great job. I really love working with friends.
There are more photos coming from this shoot…
In An Instant
July 25th, 2023
I shot some instant film, mostly old Fuji peel-apart film, with Carrie and Jenny.
Thank you ladies.
Shop Ladies
July 24th, 2023
I’m working on catching up on edits of old shoots. The past year and a has been very challenging for me in my personal life. It’s resulted in not many posts here. I’m going to try to correct that.
To help with that process I’m going to focus primarily on just posting images and not really saying much about them, since writing seems to take a lot more time than just posting photos.
So here you go with some photos of a couple of my favorite models, Carrie and Jenny.
Analog Forever
July 9th, 2023
I’m pleased to announce that one of my photos was selected for the upcoming “Analog Forever” show at Lightbox Photographic Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. I shot “Turkey Man” many years ago at a turkey farm near Athens, Ohio. I shot it with my Leica M2 and a 35mm f/2 Canon lens on Tri-X film which I developed in D-76 1:1. Pretty thoroughly analog…

Gallery Shows
July 1st, 2023
I’ve recently had two photos selected for gallery shows. The photo above will be in a show entitled “Light” at the Southeast Center for Photography in Greenville, South Carolina July 7-29.
And below is the photo that the Springfield Museum of Art has chosen for this year’s member show.
That’s my wonderful friend and model Nevaehlleh in the photo above that I call Desert Flower.
