Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day
Monday, April 25th, 2016
Yesterday was Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day. I spent part of the afternoon running around with some friends taking pinhole photos. The one above is the one I chose to upload to the WPPD website. You can see it on the site here. You can also go ahead and browse the gallery to see what pinhole […]
Angie in Blue
Thursday, April 21st, 2016
Still working through shoots from 2014. This is one I did with the lovely Angie. The theme for the shoot was blue, so we worked with whatever was handy and blue. Angie did her usual amazing job of modeling, creating a variety of moods. And, of course, we had to shoot a few sort-of nudes […]
Kelsey at Rockbridge
Monday, April 11th, 2016
Continuing my efforts to work my way through the huge backlog of shoots that I have yet to post here, I’ve come today to a great shoot with a great model from the summer of 2014. That’s the amazing, beautiful Kelsey Dylan posing at a little park in Ohio known as Rockbridge. This was a […]
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 […]
Another Day at Matthiessen
Thursday, March 10th, 2016
I did a second day of shooting at Matthiessen State Park with a model who was doing her first ever nude shoot outdoors. I think it was something she had wanted to do for a long time, and she finally got the courage to go ahead and do it. I think Areia did a great […]
Hanging In Trees
Saturday, February 27th, 2016
I’ve been escaping winter by hanging out at Edisto Island in South Carolina. It’s been cold for the south, but nice and warm compared to Ohio. I was with several friends, including one who has modeled for me in the past and is one of my all-time favorite models. She’s not modeling any more, but […]
More From Matthiessen
Wednesday, February 24th, 2016
When I shot at Matthiessen State Park I had the great fortune to be able to work with Claudine as well as Kelsey. It was a sunny day, which presented some challenges, but the new digital cameras handle sun and shade a lot better than those from a few years ago. But with these two […]
Kelsey At Matthiessen
Saturday, February 13th, 2016
Outside Chicago and adjacent to Starved Rock State Park is Matthiessen State Park. It’s not quite as interesting as Starved Rock, but does present some good photo opportunities. I visited there with the amazing, lovely Kelsey Dylan back in 2014. I’m still working my way through those older photos, making slow progress. So, here you […]
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 […]
Gallery Show in Vermont
Thursday, February 4th, 2016
I was just notified that one of my photos has been selected by juror Peter Turnley for the upcoming show “Culture” at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, VT. This is an old favorite of mine taken way back in 1969 when I was working at the Newark (Ohio) Advocate as a photographer and spending […]
