ABOUT

The human form... its beauty... the endless possibilities... it can convey so many stories.. so much meaning.

A good composition for me just feels right. Its almost like hunting...you just feel when the shot will work, a natural energy.

When l photograph models I always see the inner person when looking through a lense.
These are not models... they are people, people with stories, with lives, with families.
Stories in their eyes. Humans. Architectural forms of beauty.
These are the people who allow me to photograph them. Thankyou!

Being photographed is intrusive, invasive (even if your body is beautiful). Being naked is not easy for many people.

I have photographed so many different women.. yet somehow the photos look similiar.
How can that be?
What am I really photographing?
The answer is in my voice, eye, spirit and style that sees and reproduces these moody, beautiful and shapely images

Is she comfortable?
Is she OK with this?
Are we just observing the female anatomy?
Am I dropping in on visual cliche's?
... all these are questions I often ask myself.

I use Nikon cameras, with some old fixed focal length lenses. A camera can't make a good photo... only a good spirit/heart can (to that I endevour). My preference is for doing photos on location.. interesting, remote places with atmosphere, studios are can be cold & intimidating to the (so often inexperienced) model. Many of the women I photograph are not professional (maybe suprisingly, most all model for the experience, not for payment)... some have only been photographed just the once.

I could shoot with a camera empty of film. The experience is to me priceless, divine... The photographs are almost like postcards from this ...inexplicable experience.

For a moment, for an hour, for a week for a month.. I have fallen in love with every woman I've photographed. Though not in a everyday way, its not emotional or even physical way ... I cannot explain this.. this bizzare photographic love.

Many thanks to all the beautiful (wonderful) people that have shared this beautiful & odd experience with, and helped me make these photographs.

... honestly, this cannot be done alone.
