I am a self taught photographer who picked up a camera to become "The Worlds Greatest Nature Photographer!" After years of wandering the backwoods, battling bugs, cold, wind, rain, snow, and destroying two cameras, I did what any sane person would do..........I quit.
Years later I stumbled across a book containing Fine Art Portraits taken by some of the best photographers around. Within its pages I found incredible images of passion, beauty, sensuality, and wonder. I then began to try to emulate these images on my own, first with film, and now digitally. I was hooked.
I'm fasinated by the subtle ways in which women move. I don't try to "pose" models, instead I look for angles and images that are just naturally there. Nothing explicit, often not nude, just beauty in its most natural state. In mixing light, shadow, form, and emotion, I try to capture images that are simple in concept, yet depict a warm, sensual, and artistic quality.
I am, as I stated, not a pro and I know I still have a lot to learn, so any feed back or inquiries would be genuinely appreciated. I shoot in both in natural and artificial light and consider myself to be very easy to work with. I want to expand my portfolio or add to yours, and am very open to new ideas. All work subject to individual situations or needs.
I believe art is subjective, beauty is everywhere, winning the Lotto is a valid retirement plan, and my wife is perfect.
I believe old people know what they are talking about, my dog has issues, humor can be found anywhere, and life really is what you make of it.
I believe I could go on with this list forever.
I would love to hear from you.
