working with Brooke, i wanted to create some abstract figure studies and we tried to work slowly and deliberately. To me the results are at once anchored in form as well as connected in emotion. These images were shot on film, scanned and split-toned in Photoshop. The prints of these photographs are lush and fullContinue reading “Brooke – Abstractions”

Brooke – Burgundy Triptych
it was an interesting path that led me to the look of these final images. i’ve had some red filters in my photo bag that were originally intended for shooting infrared film and i’ve almost never used them. so, recently while i was shooting with Brooke, i decided to put one of them on andContinue reading “Brooke – Burgundy Triptych”

katlyn – beltzville blue
Katlyn and I ventured out to Beltzville, a place which has traditionally marked the start for past summers’ outdoor nudes. Katlyn wanted to find some nice rocks and typically it is very secluded here. This didn’t turn out to be the case for a good portion of the day’s shoot, but we managed to pullContinue reading “katlyn – beltzville blue”
