More Athena
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2021
A few more photos of Athena shot for my Brigman/White project. The orb was a popular prop with Clarence White, Sr. He used it a lot. Alfred Stieglitz, on the other hand, hated the orb and wrote about being upset with White for using it. I’m much more of a White fan than a Stieglitz fan, […]
Athena In Color
Saturday, March 6th, 2021
How about a few nude portraits of Athena in color? She’s such a lovely person I couldn’t resist doing just a few of these. Athena is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. And she is a very talented model. This last one was shot with a weird little cheapie fisheye lens that I […]
More of Athena
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2021
A few more revealing photos of Athena for the Brigman/White Project. Nudes were the norm in Anne Brigman‘s work and not that uncommon in Clarence White, Sr.’s photography. It was Brigman’s pioneering nudes that first drew me to study her work.
Athena With The Orb
Sunday, February 28th, 2021
I did a great shoot with my lovely friend and model, Athena, a while back. We did a bunch of shots using an orb, a favorite prop of Anne Brigman and Clarence White, Sr. These photos will be part of my ongoing Brigman/White Project. There will be more to come from this shoot. Stay tuned.
Three Beauties
Saturday, July 18th, 2020
With three lovely models in the studio I couldn’t pass up the chance to photograph all three of them together. Thanks to three great ladies, Ayn, Tigger, and Athena. I do think they enjoyed it.
Lovely Athena
Tuesday, July 14th, 2020
As promised, here are a few more photos of the amazing model and friend, Athena. Athena wasn’t able to be at this shoot as long as some of the other models, so I didn’t get as many photos of her, but she was lovely for the ones I did get. She is such a great […]
Striped Tigger
Thursday, July 9th, 2020
Tigger was also modeling for me on that day at the studio with lots of mini-blinds and lots of direct striped sunlight. Of course I did some photos with both Tigger and Ayn. And I was blessed with a third model at this shoot. Here’s Ayn and Athena in the striped light. More of Athena […]

Happy Halloween
Friday, October 28th, 2016
I seem to do a lot of Halloween-themed photos, so I thought I’d share a collection of them to mark the spooky holiday this year. Theda is one of my favorite subject for these. There’s just something about her that lends itself to darker photos. Above she is being “Gothic Eve” for my Eve […]
Dirty Show Time
Sunday, February 7th, 2016
It’s almost time for the Dirty Show in Detroit. I’ve had work in this show for many years, but a couple years ago I decided to stop entering it. I got talked out of that and entered again last year. But this year I did not enter. I will, however, have some prints available for […]
