Shot at Key Biscayne Florida in '91 a "no brainer" I just asked my model to walk around while I clicked away at my T-MAX 100. I later Printed the image 40 inches tall and hand colored the print with oils. |
|
A glamour / art / pinup style nude, Using Model April Bogenshutz, it was all done in camera but the color. Hair and Makeup Tonia Marisa. |
|
Model Britt (Margie) Anderson leaned against my studio wall, I later hand colored the print with oils. |
|
A night back in '89 I just called a group of models that I used regularly and shot the image with 21/4 T-Max film and blue toned the print. |
 |
Add a light and flip. |
|
A model named Charlie in my little flat in Miami Beach, black cloth, one umbrella and the tilt of the camera made the shot, I love the way the black blends with the black background, it even more exaggerates the exemplary female form. |
|
Anna on her back in 1993, shot on Tmax 100, one light straight down to the right. |
|
Anna again, point and shoot at the Westview cemetery in Atlanta 1989. That's and old crematorium in the back. |
|
30 year old Beauty Dina Bogina *In camera shoot, studio built pond and canoe shot with 2-1/4 black and white film darkroom printed and handcolored series. |
|
I can't remember the models name...anyway the idea was to get her lifesize on a 20 x 24 inch print. So I built a 20 x 24 inch box, she curled up and climbed in. Click. When I printed a 20 x 24 inch print, she viola' was lifesize. |
|
German model, Helga Schmidt lies comfortably in a 6 by 10 plastic lined frame of 2 by 10s, filled with water and fig leaves. Shot on chrome and the color dropped out in the computer '98 |
|
Shot in 1988, before photoshop, my model is standing on the studio floor with wooden pegs glued to her palms a little theatrical blood and my shot is complete....Just for the record, Jesus never claimed this popular execution device for hundreds of years a holy symbol. Had he been hung, would the Christian church have a noose hanging at the alter? |
|
A concrete molding tube, painted white and an old Girlfriend Elizabeth Jones, one umbrella, printed huge and hand colored with oils. 1988. |
|
Another image of Elizabeth, soft box to the right, reflector to the right, selective depth of field, with a 50mm lens, hand colored with oils. 1989. |
|
Poor Elizabeth, she grew tired of my early enthusiasm, I shot hundreds of pictures of her, as she was pretty much my only subject at the time. This was 6 months after I had started shooting in 1987 I was 27 at the time. Regardless I had already set up a darkroom in the bedroom and made a makeshift studio out of the dining room. I only had a few cheap hot lights. (read on).... |
|
I suppose this image is rather trite by today's standards, I still like it though, I styled the rope myself, a toilet paper tube provided the foundation for the rope headpiece. Shot on Tmax 100 my mainstay at the time, hand processed, darkroom printed and sepia toned with that god awful smelly toner. 1990. |
|
Shot last year with a digital camera, Lori Kimbro provided the light reflecting object, (her great body) but my one umbrella style of the late '80s obviously still works, but I styled her up in photoshop this time. |
|
What does a guy have to do to get published anymore? This shot of Nikki Dickinson is an edit of an image published in a popular men's magazines, my assistant and me built the rack from pieces found around the mill of my old studio. |
|
Ruthie Beam stood in the window of a condemned warehouse in 1996 with smoke machine. No photoshop here. |
|
Shiloh Taylor a favorite subject of my dark period. One of the first to jump on the pierce everything bandwagon in the early 90's. Here she is with all of her privates chained together. |
|
Tami West a favorite of my fashion projects. Here I managed to talk her into opening her dress nonchalantly to expose her crotch. I love this idea, I hope to do a series of it one day. |
|
Tiger, a model I began shooting in '89 when she was 19 or so, stood on a pedestal in my studio with a fan, I hand colored the print. |
|
Tiger again, this time sporting a barbed wire bra I fashioned from electrical cord, T-max film. Printed and Sepia toned and then hand colored in the early 90's. |
|
Tiger's first outing with me, she had a curtain for wardrobe, I had a Minolta with a 50mm lens. We were stranges, however I clicked and clicked and snagged this masterpiece that I hand colored. But not before Tiger took a slip on the rocks and busted here behind. Ouch!
