About me
MY SAMPLES CONTAIN BOTH MALE & FEMALE ART NUDES.  PLEASE DON'T HIT THE "VIEW PHOTOS" LINK UNLESS YOU'RE OF LEGAL AGE AND YOU'RE OK WITH THAT. THANKS.

It has been said that each snowflake is unique. I see each moment in time as an intersection of subject, emotion and light. It is my goal to try to capture some of those unique moments/images before they "melt" away.  When photographing a male figure, what grabs my attention  is usually the model’s eyes, mouth and facial structure. A perfect body is not a requirement and I've found that often it is a detriment. What I try to capture is the model’s "soul": that unique combination of personality, heart and past experiences that makes each flesh and blood man a one-of-a-kind piece of art. 

Currently I trade a CD of the work for my right to use in my portfolio, in a show or a future book, etc.  I retain copyright on all my photographs unless other arrangements are made.

What I hear from viewers of my work is that the models seem really comfortable and that I seem to have really caught their personalities.  I try to keep the shoots light and fun and I encourage the model to contribute his/her ideas to the shoot.

I'm currently working on two tabletop photography books that I will self-publish.

LOVE your work. I also try to focus on the "every day male", and you've taken it to another level and shown that body type is not the full measure of beauty. Your models are so "real" and seem to be having a great time. That's to your credit.
I'm a new fan.
