Off To A Good Start
Sunday, January 25th, 2009
This is from my first shoot of 2009. I just did it this past week. I drove over to Indianapolis to shoot with Tantila, who I met because she has also modeled for Antoine de Villiars. This was what I sometimes call a “get acquainted” shoot. But it went very well. Usually I don’t really […]
Caught a Soul?
Saturday, December 20th, 2008
I shot this photo of Phoenix Kelly today. I was playing around with some fabric and my 50mm f/1.4 lens used wide open to play with shallow depth of field. She just wrote to me to say this about this photo, “Love this. You caught me. On camera. That’s the first time that I recognize […]

Another photo from the Ohio University Spring Concert. I still don’t have any information about this concert, so I can’t tell you the title of the piece or the names of the dancers. I’m pretty sure about the dancers’ names, but I don’t like to put up incomplete credit info and not having the program […]
