About Me

I'm an amateur photographer, but a pretty serious one. It started as a simple hobby but soon became a passion. A bit of a dinosaur, I still work with film and even do some printing with 19th century techniques. My shooting schedule is limited and fills up quickly but I always try to stay flexible, especially for models with creative ideas for making art. More of my work is available on my web site .

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Models with artistic concepts and creative vision to explore image making as full and equal partners in the process. The most important thing a model can bring to a photo session is a mind full of ideas.

Almost warm enough again to make outdoor shooting a fun time instead of a survival exercise. I'll be headed back to the forest, fields and streams to work on a draped and/or nude figure series throughout the spring and summer months.

My slow film ways limit the number of photo sessions I can squeeze into my schedule, so don't be shy about contacting me to reserve a time slot.

Don't be shy about contacting me to schedule a photo session.

Gauze series continues with some new Van Dyke prints. Most are a bit beyond the prudish MySpace standards but a few can be shared here.
