Collaboration
Wednesday, October 12th, 2011
I consider my models to be co-creators of the work we do together. I honestly don’t understand why my view on this is so much a minority point of view. I often say that the models do all the hard work and I just take photos of them while they do it. I’m serious about […]
I’ve Never Been Lost In The Wilderness…
Thursday, October 6th, 2011
That’s Kat and Brooke at South Coyote Buttes…a place that is about as truly wilderness as anyplace left in this country. It’s every bit as beautiful as the famous Wave, which is in North Coyote Buttes. But the Wave is much more easy to get to, and so popular now that permits to visit it […]
Road Trip Travails
Monday, October 3rd, 2011
As my readers know, this trip has not been the smoothest. After the deer damage was repaired problems continued in the form of, shall we say, less than wonderful motel rooms. But the trade-off for all that was in the places we went. I have a ton of new photos to share, but I’m just […]
Why Am I Here?
Tuesday, September 27th, 2011
Now on our third day stranded in Alliance. Why would anyone ever come to Alliance, you might ask? Well, there’s only one reason…Carhenge. I first visited Carhenge shortly after it was created in 1987. I was on a motorcycle trip with my best friend, Ken. We stopped and spent the night in a tent right […]
Oh Deer!
Sunday, September 25th, 2011
I’m on my trip out west. Things have not been going all that well. I’ve been reminded of a couple old sayings that I often heard when I worked for the Air Force: “No plan survives first contact with the enemy.” and “Flexibility is the key to air power.” I started out Thursday by driving […]
Theda in the Basement
Tuesday, September 6th, 2011
Here’s another of Theda in the sub-basement. For some reason she didn’t want to lay down back in there. I can never figure out why my models are sometimes hesitant to do the things I ask them to do. But we got some good shots anyway. Actually, Theda is always great to work with and a […]
Julie and the Monks
Tuesday, August 30th, 2011
The lovely Julie Max in her equally lovely apartment. Those monks are sure missing out on a great view. It was a pleasure and an honor to be able to photograph Julie in her home. I’ve been busy working on plans for my major photo trip of the year. It’s coming in September and October. I […]
Dirty Pitchers
Friday, August 26th, 2011
When I contacted Theda about my trip to New York so we could set up the shoot we always try to do when I come to town the leading question was, “Where?” We’ve done a lot of shoots over the years and many of the more recent ones have been done in Theda’s apartment. It’s […]
More Cam Damage
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011
Here’s another of Cam Damage on the rocks in Pennsylvania. This turned out to be a great location and the weather was very cooperative. And it didn’t hurt to have the lovely Cam there to decorate the rocks. I’ve done several more shoots since my trip to NYC, but I’m going to keep posting from […]
Julie, Julie, Julie
Sunday, August 21st, 2011
The internet world of models and photographers is a strange and often puzzling place. I was doing nude photo work long before there was an internet. It’s been both amusing and troubling to watch the culture that has grown up over the years around the internet modeling sites. Sometimes I feel like I just want […]
