Love in Gary

It all started with an idea to shoot in Gary, Indiana. What originally was to be two separate models working back to back, quickly became one of the most lovely duo series I’ve ever photographed. You know that stereotypical comment that artists make – “I’ve always wanted to…blah”. Well this was the crowning moment for […]

Jason and St. Louis

In this post, I want to share the timeliness that is essential to my work. As soon as I discover new sites, they seem to disappear. That fear drives my need to capture as many of these places as possible before all is lost. It’s a race against the “homogenizing” of America. This post is

Holiday Recap

The 2022 photography season truly began with Portugal. It was the first time that I felt comfortable enough to attempt a foreign country by myself. Armed with research done online, I had several destinations and a few contacts to assist with what became some of the best location work I’ve shot. This trip energized the

Wonderful Oliveé!

I am still trying to catch up with editing the summers activities. This month I’d like to feature work shot with the sweet Oliveé from New York. I was really impressed with his enthusiasm especially after a hideously complicated flight, which seems to be the norm anymore. Surprisingly he was unfazed with a calm demeanor
