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 […]
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 […]
Just Hangin’ Out
Wednesday, November 12th, 2014
I make several trips to Chicago every year. It’s not that far away and I have a lot of reasons to visit. My gallery is there. I also have quite a few friends in the Chicago area. And there are some great models there. Of course, the models and the friends are often the same people. […]
In The Tub
Tuesday, November 4th, 2014
Claudine has an amazing apartment and in it is the best bathroom I’ve ever seen. It just requires all sorts of fooling around. Once you get started doing photos like these there’s no telling what you will end up doing. And, of course, there’s that fisheye lens too. And, as the day passes the light […]
Turning the Fisheye on Claudine
Friday, October 31st, 2014
Still running about a year behind on posting here. About a year ago I was up in Chicago and got the chance to work with the amazing Claudine at her beautiful apartment overlooking the lake. As you can see, it’s a pretty fine place to shoot. It was also helpful that it was a cloudy […]
The Wilds Of Illinois
Tuesday, August 19th, 2014
After the closing of my show at Gallery Provocateur in Chicago I had the immense good fortune to be able to go to Starved Rock State Park, not that far out of the city, to work with a bunch of wonderful models. Several of my favorite models, Ayn, Claudine and Kelsey, made the trip. There […]
And Indoor Pair
Friday, August 15th, 2014
After all those outdoor photos, today I’ll post some taken inside. Last September I went to Chicago for the closing reception for the show I had there at Gallery Provocateur. While I was there I did some shooting with several models, including two of my favorites in these photos, Ayn and Kelsey. After the reception […]
Going Soft
Friday, July 18th, 2014
When I was in Chicago for the opening of my show at Gallery Provocateur last June a bunch of my favorite models came along to participate in the opening. You can see and read about that interesting evening here. Of course, while we were all there we couldn’t resist doing a few photos in the […]
Chicago Reception
Friday, September 20th, 2013
I didn’t take a lot of photos at the closing reception of my show at Gallery Provocateur in Chicago earlier this month, but I did play around with the fisheye lens and got a couple that are worth sharing. That’s gallery owner Veronika behind the couch with muses Ayn and Kelsey Dylan flanking my […]
