Day 585 of 365 More. Helluva day! So the battery in my laptop has been acting up and not holding a charge since I went to Florida last week. I didn’t have time to deal with it though so I put it off till today to go to the Apple store and get a replacement.…

Mandie dreamgirl 2

Mandie dreamgirl 2

Last week I did a photoshoot with Mandie. She’s got a wonderful look. She just exudes the sweet and charming girl next door vibe. Definitely totally hot, but also completely sweet and unthreatening. So I definitely didn’t want to ruin that when shooting implied nudes of her.

So that was the challenge, feature her sexiness and sensuality but without making her look slutty or blatant. I’m totally pleased with what we came up with.

In this one in particular, I really wanted to push something different. I decided to create kind of a pinup girl look for her. I think it worked out well.

Day 530 of 365 More. I have these days when I get really down on myself. Where I start thinking about this whole "being an aritst" thing and start wanting to reexamine my life. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that I want to quit. Really I have no interest in that. And I’m not…

Day 499 of 365 More. In this joyous holiday season I am reminded of one of my favorite carols. Please join me in singing along to that old classic by Mr. Nat King Cole. O Festivus Pole, O Festivus Pole, Your single beam delights us. O Festivus Pole, O Festivus Pole, Your single beam delights…

Day 450 of 365 More. You know its a great party when you have trouble getting out of bed the next morning. Last night was a great party. Of course, i didn’t wake up in bed with four hot babes, two midgets and a donkey, but hey, it was just halloween, not jammy jam, so…

Queen of Cups

Queen of Cups

Opal Rae was another model I met on Model Mayhem. She initially wrote me several months ago wanting to be a part of the tarot project, but like so many others I was unable to find time to sync our schedules together.

Finally got that chance earlier this week. I’m quite happy with the results, and though its subtle, I feel as though the card says Mystery quite well.

One of the things I’m trying to do with the tarot cards is keep them as simple as possible. I was worried that I was getting too intricate with some of them. Lately I’ve been happier, as I feel that I am returning to the original spirt of the cards and design concepts.

Comments and criticism as always welcome.

It’s been a while since I posted a new Tarot card. I actually had to take a break from it when my computer was in the shop. While it was down D and Adam were in town to pose for their cards. I finished editing D’s tonight. Adam’s will be up soon though, and I’m probably shooting two more this week as well. I need to get some more of the guy cards done. Never thought I’d say that.

Anyway, I was concerned about this one. I was worried that D’s green hair would come across as too punk and not preppy enough to be a staff card, but upon completion I think the hair color combined with the thong and the fire just make the card a little edgier witout moving her into goth per se. She’s certainly not A&F here, but I’d still think she was kind of trendy. Opinions?

Amaya had this crazy notion of working with something like 1,642,334,563,434,278 photographers in 48 hours during her roadtrip. I was the absolute last on the list. She was dead tired by the time she got to me, but I’m still pretty pleased with how the pics turned out.

Yes, its the 300 effect processing again. I’m becoming as fond of it as I am of chiaroscuro backdrops. Maybe it’s a phase that I’ll grow out of.
