On display in Vermont
Sunday, January 4th, 2015
I’ve been traveling the last couple days and forgot to let you know that I have a print in a show at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, Vermont. The show opened Friday and runs through January 25. If you are in that neighborhood you might enjoy stopping by to see the show. It’s a […]
More Random Reveille
Sunday, December 28th, 2014
Just a few more random photos of Reveille hanging around her house. Reveille is nothing if not an interesting person. And, of course, she’s a beautiful and talented model. And not nearly as dangerous as she might like to lead you to believe. I hope your Christmas was happy and that the new year will […]
Merry Christmas

Hoping the holiday season is a good one for all of you. May you and the world find peace.
Reveille’s Living Room
Monday, December 22nd, 2014
I didn’t only shoot with the crappy Polaroid camera when I visited Reveille at her home. I brought along the “real” camera and did some fun stuff in with her in the house. As you can see, Reveille’s home is not decorated in an exactly conventional way. She’s an interesting person who lives in an […]

I sometimes ask models to do completely unreasonable things. I try to always make sure they know that they can say no. But sometimes, more often than any reasonable person might expect, they say yes to something no reasonable person would do. That’s what happened last December when I asked Pippy Couture to pose for […]
Looking at Old Stuff
Sunday, December 7th, 2014
In case you are interested, I’m on Ello and I’ve been posting a lot of my old stuff on there. It will be my social media site for my photo work. Recently I’ve been posting my “docunude” series that I shot about 10 years ago. It’s environmental nude portraits of most of the models I […]

A few more photos of Athena, this time taken with a “real” camera, my D7000 and my 50mm f/1.4 lens. I like that lens for portraits. These were shot stopped down one stop to f/2. It’s nice and sharp there, with a shallow depth of focus. The originals of these, of course, are in color, […]
Instant Athena
Wednesday, November 26th, 2014
I’ve long enjoyed the 3000 speed instant film…both the Polaroid stuff and the Fuji copy. I was working on a project using that film when Fuji announced it was discontinuing it. That was a sad day. I have a stash of it and I’m continuing to work with it until it is gone forever. The […]
Fuzzy Portraits
Saturday, November 22nd, 2014
Along with shooting Lizzie AnneMarie with my instant cameras I also put my old Sima 100mm soft-focus single-element lens on the Nikon D7000 and did a few fuzzy photos with it. I’ve had this lens for something like 40 years. It was a forerunner of all the current fuzzy lenses out there and I like the […]
Instant Art
Saturday, November 15th, 2014
Almost a year ago a new model came to the studio to do a shoot. It was a pleasure to meet and work with Lizzie AnneMarie. I’ve been working on a project using instant cameras for a while now and I decided to do some instant photos of Lizzie. These first two are obviously shot with […]
