Thank you for taking the time to visit my portfolio.

rSEANd is moniker of my full name, Robert Sean Dibble. I share a first name with my father, but am not a junior and have always been called Sean. I photograph people, not just models because I find some element of beauty in everyone. Photography has always been a self-expressive art form for me, and I mainly used it as a tool to show others how I viewed them, as opposed to the self-depreciating ways in which they often viewed themselves. My images have been featured in Bruno Gmunder publications, Beautiful Mag, Paragon Men, Ooh La La Mag, AOM, Favorite Hunks, BLISS Male Mag, US Weekly Blog, Maryland Zoogram and numerous online blog and websites.

I first picked up a camera in 1981 and began experimenting with my sister, who was my original muse. I consider myself a continual work in progress, so despite shooting off and on for over 25 years, I will always label myself a skilled amateur. I primarily photograph males, but not exclusively. I have a huge passion for animals and nature, as well, so my full portfolio includes those types of photos.  My favorite images are head shots, but my tastes are varied and include portrait, lifestyle, athletic, underwear, body scapes and nudes, implied, artistic or erotic.  I consider the human form to be living art and enjoy capturing it in its natural glory, but I stress that it is NOT a requirement to shoot nudes to work with me. I make this distinction because my portfolio does contain nudity and the question has been asked.

When I work with models who have decided to do nude images, I do have a conversation regarding where they plan to take their career in the future and ask that they be fully committed to the decision before agreeing to it. I understand how early decisions can lead to "nude remorse" and that individuals may change their minds about photos they originally agreed to. In these cases, please do not ask me to remove any images - the answer will be no. What I will do, as a courtesy, is change the name, at the models request, so nudes are not searchable on the Internet.

I work well with models who are just starting out as well as those who are seasoned. The only requirements needed to work with me are an open mind, a willingness to push yourself past your comfort zone, the ability to perform in front of the camera so that there is life in the images, a positive attitude and a genuine love of being photographed. If you cancel a shoot at the last minute, please do not ask to work together in the future.

I admire the work of many artists here on Mayhem, such as Mark Henderson, Ethan James, WagnerLA, ZEDNERAM, Rick Day, Justin Monroe, Joseph Smileuske, Luis Rafael, Carlos Arias, Dylan Rosser, Kevin D. Hoover, Julian Vankim, Mark Grantham, Scott Marrs, MURRAY!, Ron Reyes, Anton Russ, Jorge Freire, Jay Plogman, Don Pollard, Hasson Harris, SOOAK, FLYFOTO, John Gress, Henning von Berg, John Hough, Maya Guez, Tommie Adams, Thomas Synnamon, Andrew Bowman, Tom Silk, StudioNero, David Vance, Justin Thai, Greg Weiner, Haringman+, Charles Archer, Tony Gibble, Dave Lewis, Michael Hallenbeck, AJR (I could go on and on, with new ones being added to my mental list constantly) and I gain inspiration from each of them for their individual styles.

I also believe in always being supportive of my fellow artists, even if the support is not mutual because it takes more than talent to put your hard work on display and open oneself up to criticism. No matter how vast it may appear, it is still a small community and each of us can gain something, no matter how big or small, from each other.

I have been lucky enough to have support from some amazingly talented photographers whose work I admire and study, as well as some wonderful models. Thanks to everyone for your comments.

"Your work is truly stunning... the models are superb, the composition is masterful, and lighting is exceptional. I like your presentation of each finished art piece. It's not just "eye candy", but has more going on in each shot than most people give credit for. Your style is evident throughout the body of work, and is recognizable even without a logo! I applaud work like yours and photographers who are dedicated to the craft of creating images & visual magic."

"Hi Sean,
I know this Tag is going to just get lost in all the other fantastic praise everyone has to say about your profile and portfolio.
However as a model working with you today, I just have to say you are a real trooper! Our session today was a true workout, climbing over rocks, over and under trees and whatever it took to get the right angle and the perfect shot.
You are such an easy going guy and fantastic to work with. Your directions when needed were very clear and really made a world of difference on the whole look of the shot.
I truly can't wait to be back in front of your camera."
