Farewell New York

Friday, August 24th, 2012

This will be the final post from the shoot near New York City with Erica and Venus.  It was a great day of shooting with two wonderful models.  The weather was perfect…solid overcast with occasional light rain.  Just what I look for when I’m trying to shoot nudes in nature. And, don’t worry, this isn’t […]

Erica’s All Wet

Sunday, August 19th, 2012

When I talk to models about working with me I try to always promise them that they can plan on getting cold and wet and dirty.  I put my models through a lot to get the photos I’m after.  Most of the models I work with understand what I’m after and what is required on […]

Birth of Venus

Tuesday, August 14th, 2012

I couldn’t help thinking of that painting when I started looking at these photos of Venus de Milo from our shoot just outside New York City.  Of course, these photos are nothing like the famous painting.  But the model is Venus and she is splashing around in water.  That’s close enough for me.  There was this […]

It’s Been a While

Friday, August 10th, 2012

Sorry I’ve been gone so long.  I’ve been really, really gone.  As in very limited internet, cell service, hell, not even any TV.  I’ve been off in the wilds of Maine.  It was a great trip with a bunch of friends, both photographers and models.  I’ll tell you more about that trip in later posts. […]

More Crimson in the Gorge

Tuesday, July 31st, 2012

No time to write tonight.  And it may be a while before I’m able to post again.  Lots going on that you’ll hear about here eventually. Meanwhile, here are a few more photos of the fantastic Crimson Reign from our shoot in the gorge.  Enjoy.

Crimson on the Rocks

Saturday, July 28th, 2012

After we shot at the quarry Crimson and I hiked to some of the wonderfully colored rock cliffs that make up this gorge.  This despite the cut on her foot that she got when she slipped on some of the rocks around the quarry.  I cleaned up and bandaged the cut using my first aid […]

A Different Tone for the Gorge

Tuesday, July 24th, 2012

A couple months ago my friend Cherrystone told me about a model who was going to be visiting our area who he thought I might like to work with.  As soon as I saw Crimson Reign’s portfolio I knew she could be a great addition to the project I’m working on at a beautiful gorge […]

In the Woods with Ayn

Friday, July 20th, 2012

I’m actually getting caught up a bit with my editing.  These photos of Ayn were shot just last month.  We went out one morning to one of my favorite local spots to see what we could come up with.  And it was a good shoot, as you can see.  I hope to be working with […]

In The Studio with Sugar Dumpling

Tuesday, July 17th, 2012

Sugar Dumpling  was good enough to come by the studio so I could play around with a bunch of lenses on the Olympus.  Of course, being the totally organized person that I am, I failed to take notes on which lens I was using for which photos, and since there is no lens data in the […]

Jake and Elwood

Saturday, July 14th, 2012

A little change of pace.  Last night Jake and Elwood were playing in the park near my house.  I stuck the old 85mm f/1.8 on the Olympus E-PL1 to see what I could do with it.  Despite forgetting to go put out chairs at 6 a.m., I was still able to find some good spots […]
