ze film noir


It's fun to comb through the old photo archives from time to time and look at older work with fresh eyes. I found this photo of the lovely Sarah Head today... I love the film noir kind of thing that's going on.

Sideshow








So here are some images from an ongoing sideshow-themed project of mine... I seem to constantly be coming up with grand personal project ideas, though I don't have the grand amounts of time to work on them... Bearded Lady, Knife-thrower, Tattooed Man pictured here.

Coming Soon(ish): Sad clown on a tiny bicycle. And a contortionist loosely based on that fantastic series of images from the Bombay Circus by Mary Ellen Mark http://www.maryellenmark.com/frames/icircus.html

These are some selects from my most recent shoot with the Keyturn Project ladies. Are these girls beautiful or what?

Subjects with Infinite Patience


I really like these images of fresh produce from the market... the rich colors and subdued light. But it just doesn't fit into any of my current portfolios. I am mostly a photographer of people, but the more interested I become in cooking and growing food, the more I am drawn to the natural beauty of fruit and vegetables. An added bonus is that working with inanimate objects gives me a chance to really experiment with light and color-- I can take my time and they will for the most part remain unchanged. Stay tuned as I continue to build this portfolio...

Modern dancers




So here are some of my favorite images from my latest project.... I really enjoyed working with these dancers, Noel and Keely and hope that I have managed to capture some of the grace and emotion that they exhibit in their work.
