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 From Savannah and the Big Apple
Tuesday, June 19th, 2012
Sorry to go so long without a new post. That was not my intention. But I was traveling and was surprised to find that there was no internet and no cell service where I was staying. Now that I’m back to civilization I’ll try to pick up the pace a bit. This is more of […]
Something To Think About
Friday, November 18th, 2011
I’m going to interrupt our irregularly scheduled nudity to take a detour into what is going on in our country right now. Friend, model and intelligent, thoughful person, Theda, works in NYC near the Occupy Wall Street area and has been going by there and keeping tabs on what is going on…and writing updates on […]
As Light As Air
Wednesday, September 14th, 2011
That’s what you think must be the case when you see dancers like these in action. I took this photo in New York City several years ago. I was studying dance photography with Lois Greenfield at her studio there. She brought in some of the best dancers in the world for us to work with. […]
Instant Julie and a PhotoShop Rant
Friday, September 9th, 2011
Like pretty much everyone else who has been doing photography for any amount of time, I’ve worked from time to time with Polaroid instant materials. “Back in the day” I used Polaroids to check lighting and exposure when working with strobe lighting in the studio. The digital equipment we use these days has completely eliminated […]
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 […]
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 […]
Theda in the Stairway
Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Whenever I go to New York City I always try to schedule a shoot with Theda. I’ve worked with her many times over quite a few years. She never fails to deliver a “keeper.” She’s beautiful, interesting and I like her. Couldn’t really ask for more…well, maybe if she were able to get herself to […]
