Welcome 2025! Another year of production looms ahead. But before I can start, I need to thank this past year’s models for all of the wonderful work they helped create.
Several of these guys have modeled for me in the past and a few are new prospects. Even though I try to make their assistance worthwhile, I am proud of their enthusiasm and willingness to carry out my concepts.
It’s not an easy job. I give them tough assignments. Trudging through dirt, broken glass and other debris; enduring heat, rain or cold to produce stunning imagery.
But the results are so worth it!
I’m not an artist who produces a huge volume of work due to the nature of my location interests. A lot of logistical effort is involved with these settings. And as much difficulty as my models endure, I’m enduring it right along with them. And I’ve had my share of cuts and bruises as proof.
So I’d like the viewer to appreciate the amount of work that goes into each shot. There is no AI or heavy handed Photoshopping. The places are real. The adversity is real.
Let me now thank Zach, Skyler, Alec, B, Cole, Zed, Jordan, Olivier, Donny, Aaron, Cody, Sam and all other models who I may have inadvertently failed to recognize in the past. I want to make this a yearly post of appreciation. For those guys who put their energy into every shoot, this is your moment of acknowledgement.
And to any new potentials on the horizon – you’re in for an adventure!
Happy New Year!
