Ooohh Mandy…
Well, her name isn’t Mandy, but it’s close and damn but isn’t she a beautiful bride. We did a studio pin-up boudoir mash up as a wedding gift for her hubs. Overall we had a great time in-studio, just a bunch of girls playing dress up with a fancy camera and good lighting. … Continue reading
Derek
Really what else is there to say. He now has a following and is such a sweetie. I flew him out here for promo work for RomCon and to make some connections, meet some other authors, and do some work with one of the biggest cover agencies in the U.S. as well as to meet … Continue reading
Return of the zombies
So I have been looking forward to the zombie shoot for months. Literally. I had so much to consider in the planning this shoot, I mean the precedent for zombie art is huge. There are so many different styles and takes on zombies, starting with Night of the Living Dead, and moving forward exponentially, particularly … Continue reading
This was my year.

The loss of that newspaper in particular was very difficult to stomach. The Rocky was driven by the passion for … Continue reading

Working on post is the bain of my existence most days. I love being a photojournalist because post-production consists of two things: exposure and white balance. Woo Hoo. Studio work, however, requires a bit more work. Exposure and white balance should be spot-on (since you are standing stock still in a studio under controlled circumstances) … Continue reading
