Drink and Click
Friday, July 27th, 2018
Last night I went over to Columbus for a Panasonic “Drink and Click” sponsored by Midwest Photo. I do most of my photo work these days with Panasonic GX8 cameras. I was hoping to try out their 7-14mm wide-angle zoom which is pretty much the only lens I need to have a complete kit for […]
Gypsy Photographer
Wednesday, July 25th, 2018
With no studio and the weather not yet warm enough for outdoor shoots, I felt a little like a Gypsy wandering around looking for places to shoot. Ayn found this one for us and we explored the space and made a few photos. But is it art? Who knows? Maybe this next one comes close. […]
New Year, New Project
Saturday, July 21st, 2018
As I started 2017 I also started a new project. I decided I’d like to try shooting some contortionist models in my favorite outdoor settings. The problem I encountered, and am still having a problem with, is simply finding contortionists to work with. I started with a casting call on Model Mayhem. The first response […]
More Wandering Liv
Tuesday, July 17th, 2018
As promised, here are some more photos of Liv Sage taken while wandering around Mike Elsass’ studio space. These next two seem pretty appropriate for a traveling model. I’ve hit a milestone with this post. This is my last shoot to be edited from 2016. I’ll be working on editing last year’s shoots from here […]
Wandering With Liv
Thursday, July 12th, 2018
After moving out of my studio in Dayton my friend Mike Elsass was willing to let me still do some shooting in his space on the floor above my old studio. Liv Sage came to town and we spent some time up there exploring the space. Liv did her usual great job of working with […]
Changes
Monday, July 9th, 2018
I’ve been traveling way too much and that has kept me from adding new posts here. I had planned a post for the Independence Day holiday, but was traveling and couldn’t access the blog, so I missed that one. I’m hoping to get back to more frequent posting now, but we’ll see. These photos of […]

Tomorrow is Flag Day in the U.S.
It’s All Happening At The Zoo
Sunday, June 10th, 2018
Went to the Columbus Zoo yesterday with family and friends. Took a few snapshots. Thought I’d share them with you here. The one above was shot with my little Canon G7X Mark II. The others were taken with a Panasonic GX8 with a 100-300mm Panasonic lens. “A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh…”
Digital Ayn and Kelsey
Friday, May 25th, 2018
As I promised, here are some photos from this shoot with Ayn and Kelsey that I shot with my digital camera. I was still shooting with my Nikon D7000 back when these were taken. Just a few snaps of the two of them in the window light in my old studio. And I played with […]
Kelsey and Ayn with Instax
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2018
Since all the peel-apart film will soon be gone, never to be seen again, I’ve been working with the instant film that will be around, at least for a while. That’s Fuji’s Instax film. It’s nothing like the wonderful old peel-apart film, but it does have a unique quality that I’m trying to learn to […]
