A Samantha Afternoon
To be quite honest I think Samantha was using my camera to photograph the initials in a tree and the image of her feet. But I loved them so much they made the blog. Hope you don’t mind Sam!
A Doodle

Heather and Shay
In an odd chain of events this shoot put itself together. Very fortuitous.
Models are Shay and Heather | Hair by Steven Robertson | Makeup by Danielle Carlsen | Assisted by Ryan Muirhead and Stuart Hackworth
A night with JD
We sat. We ate. We talked. And best of all, we took pictures.
I no longer even recognize the work I was shooting six months ago… it doesn’t even feel like it was me. This feels… better.
I hope you agree.
A new way.
My first shoot with Paige, I asked her if she’d be up for trying out a different kind of test shoot. Different for me that is, maybe not for you. Hard to say.
Instead of spending the night shooting we sat down somewhere.
We talked and I got to know Paige. The small things.
Every once in awhile I stole a genuine expression during a genuine moment. A glimpse, a detail. These are the things a brain like mine sees… when the rest of me is sitting still.
I like to think that part of the genuineness might be captured, and possibly even conveyed. To you, the viewer.
That is my artist statement, of sorts.
I hope you find it as fascinating of a process as I found Paige as a person. Thanks much for your sla. Short for slang. You wouldn’t get it, unless you know her, which I guess is kind of the point?
A journey in documenting a person rather than a face. That is my new inspiration. I’ve finally found the words. More images like this to come.
Much more.
Fire | Water | Earth
Heather was over. We shot three quick concepts for no particular rhyme or reason. The three element theme was a total coincidence.
Fire and water are obvious, leave a comment about why I think the third image might symbolize earth.
PS – these were shot one day before Heather had her scalp bic’d, by the amazing Steven Robertson, for what might be destined to be one of my favorite shoots this year… coming soon!
