Flathead Lake and Tina
Saturday, May 30th, 2009
One of the things I enjoy about traveling to do my figure work is the chance to meet and work with a variety of models who live in the areas I visit. I’ve encountered some very beautiful and talented models this way. Tinytina is a perfect example of this. I contacted her through Model Mayhem […]

I’m at the studio today catching up on e-mail and setting up my new studio computer while my mechanic figures out how much damage the deer did to my truck. Not much new to report here, but here’s another photo from the trip. That’s _G_ freezing on a fallen tree at Flathead Lake. You may […]
Home Again
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009
_G_ and I made it home last night after a long two-day drive from Dave Swanson’s place in northern Minnesota. It was a great visit with Dave and his wife. A fine way to end this trip. We traveled 4930 miles in 83 hours and 10 minutes of driving time. We had a great time, […]
Up The Creek
Saturday, May 23rd, 2009
Yesterday we hiked a trail up to Apikuni Falls on the east side of the park. It was only a one-mile hike, but the trail guide described it as “calf burning.” It was all steeply uphill. There was still snow on the trail in many places. But there was no exposure to a fall, at […]
Icing the Models
Wednesday, May 20th, 2009
It’s cold today. And windy. And cloudy. And rainy. Great weather for photos, unless you happen to be a nude model. Then it’s bad news. But I work with the very best, bravest, toughest figure models in the world. And they proved that again today. We met Montana model Tinytina at 8 a.m. and headed […]
Cold, Wet and Dirty
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009
I often tell my models that they will get cold and wet and dirty if they work with me. That’s what happened to Brooke today. At least for a short while in the morning. It was cold and raining this morning. We got up early and drove to the park to shoot at a spot […]
More Claudine
Sunday, April 26th, 2009
More of Claudine at the beach. It was cold. It was very windy. Claudine was a total trooper, though she did have to close her eyes because of all the sand blowing around in this spot, just off the beach on Lake Michigan. I’m loving those shadows and all the lines and angles along with […]
Claudine
Friday, April 24th, 2009
Before I went to Chicago a couple weeks ago I asked a friend who shoots nudes and has a lot of time living in Chicago if he could suggest some models for me to contact. His first recommendation was Claudine. I looked at her portfolio and knew I wanted to shoot with her if possible. […]
The French String Continues
Tuesday, January 20th, 2009
Thanks to my friend, Chris at Univers d’Artistes I’ve learned that once again I have a photo in the Jan/Feb issue of French PHOTO magazine. I’ve had a real run of good luck with that magazine, which some consider to be the best general circulation photo magazine in the world. I first sent photos to […]
In passing…
Saturday, January 17th, 2009
Well, it’s been another week with no post here. I continue to be far too busy and besides, it’s just too damn cold to think, let alone think of something to post. I need to move south. But that’s not going to happen any time soon, so I guess I’ll just have to deal with […]
