Model Archives

Every so often a photographer needs to go back and look at the progression of style and artistry. Learning how he/she has grown over the years. This gives the opportunity to learn from past work or even give the present artist ideas. Sometimes we give up one technique that really works for another. Occasionally we borrow these ideas from ourselves.

Also, it's really just a lot of fun looking through the archives of previous jobs.

Well, since it's right after the holidays and I had some extra time I decided to go though some of these such archives. I started out with the model archives. I have come up with one model in particular with whom I worked well with. Unfortunately, I had not until this time displayed many of the photographs that I took of her. I hope you enjoy.

Boudior Sessions

Boudoir Sessions are very special. True they create beautiful images for the man in your life, however, they are special more for the woman in the photograph. These images make women feel powerful and sexy in their own beauty. Something they may or may not normally feel. I strive to make every woman feel this way. Feeling beautiful is a gift every woman can and should have. Featured here are two lovely women that embraced their beauty and sensuality.

My sister...

Yes, as a photographer, I try to get everyone and anyone around me to model for me. My whole family has been suckered into that role at least once if not multiple times over the years. Afterall, I need to keep my portfolio fresh and updated.

The most recent, my sister. She decided to change her hair so before she changed the color I had her sit before my camera for a little while. I did her hair and make-up too. This is not a look she would normally chose for herself. :) I think it looks great on her. Enjoy a few pictures.

High fashion photography for models and high school seniors...

Since my senior year in college, I have loved doing high fashion type of photo shoots. I love working with people who are comfortable enough in front of the camera to not look at me strangely if I ask them to walk out into the ocean while wearing a bridesmaid's dress, or to climb up on some rocks while wearing a skirt. Sometimes what I ask a model to do may sound strange, but more often than not I'm right on the money and it becomes a great photograph.

I've started a Myspace page dedicated mainly to showcasing my high fashion model images and my high school senior images. I love doing photo shoots to help enrich models' portfolios. They give me vague parameters or a location to work with, and love the results.


High school seniors are a special group of people. I look at these photographs as their first chance to really shine and be themselves in a school portrait. You see, when I was a senior in high school I would have loved it if I had been treated like a model for a day. Don't get me wrong, my photographs turned out well, but I like to take it a step further and treat my seniors the way I would have liked, as if they were models doing high fashion type photographs. I also always try to keep it real and incorporate elements that represent part of their life, whether it be a pet, sport, or car.
