Day 282 of 365 days. So there I am, minding my own business, working on a shoot for the tarot project when all of a sudden, my studio was invaded by KGB shock troops who didn’t know the Cold War ended twenty years ago. There was much torture and pressure involved, utilizing a can of…

Liz came over to do her shoot for the Maverick Tarot set, where she is my Page of Swords. Never wanting to waste the opportunity at a good photoshoot with someone so babeliscious, we took a bunch of other shots as well.

Did the KGB have an equivalent of the USO? I really think this has the appeal of an old fashioned pinup shot… you know… accept the whole communist thing.

This is a simple high key effect. I really like how well she blends into a white background. Obviously I do this trick with myself on black backgrounds a lot. But i like the alternate effect too.

Liz came over to do her shoot for the Maverick Tarot set, where she is my Page of Swords. Never wanting to waste the opportunity at a good photoshoot with someone so babeliscious, we took a bunch of other shots as well.

When we were doing her shoot, I took this half body shot and immediately said to her "you know, you’d make good desktop wallpaper." So I pulled this together and you know, I think I’m right.

Day 275 of 365 days. How in the name of all that is good and holy did people mow lawns before they invented hot tubs? I stayed up late last night working on my most recent tarot card.. I didn’t really intend to work on it all night, but once I got on a roll,…

Day 260 of 365 days. From sinful gothic glamour to cute family photos. Oh what a difference a day makes. My former roommates, Sam and Karen wanted me to take a family portrait for them today, so they came over to sit in the studio with their two kids. Sadly I couldn’t get Ted to…

Day 256 of 365 days. Part of me wonders if I am starting to lose my mind without having a day job. I was at every end of the multidimensional extreme today. I had about an hour of misery and uselessness as I fell into despair thinking I’m never going to find anything to pay…

Day 212 of 365 days. One of my earliest ideas was to do a fetal position pic in this project. I just never really got around to it. Funny because it seemed like a really obvious backup picture to do. Turns out, not so much. First of all, I’m neurotic and certainly couldn’t just lay…
