Starved Rock

Wednesday, 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…

Desolation

Saturday, December 11th, 2021

If you’ve been around this blog much in the past few years you are well aware that I’m a great admirer of Anne Brigman, a member of the Photo Secession and a pioneering photographer of the nude in nature. After seeing a retrospective of her work at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno, I […]

More Areia at Bisti

Sunday, February 21st, 2021

                            Just a few more photos of the lovely Areia lazing around on the hot rocks at the Bisti Wilderness in New Mexico at a time of year when “only fools and Englishmen” would be out and about in the blazing sun. […]

More From Bisti

Tuesday, February 16th, 2021

        More from my hot shoot in the Bisti Wilderness with the lovely Areia.                 I think she makes a lovely addition to a desolate scene.                 In the photo above Areia is finding a little shelter from […]

Feel the Heat

Tuesday, February 9th, 2021

            On a day when it is freezing in Ohio and we are digging out from a snowfall last night, it seems like a good time to look back at a shoot in the Bisti Wilderness in New Mexico. It was summer. It was hot. I mean it was really, […]

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 […]

Some Instants Before

Tuesday, April 5th, 2016

Before Areia and I went to Matthiessen State Park to shoot we took a bit of time and did some instant photos using my Speed Graphic and some of the last of Fuji’s 3000 speed black and white film. I’m going to really miss that film. It has a tonal quality that is unique. These […]
