Hello everyone,

Well, I have resisted this blog thing for several years, but I think it’s time to give it a whirl!

I’m not much of a writer, but perhaps that will change with time.  My main goal is to create a new forum to share some of my work and to interact with those with similar interests.  I hope it all goes well.

For my first post, I am going back to my very first shoot with a professional model.  It was the Spring of 2006, the model: Amanda.  She was traveling to my area from Ohio when I contacted her for a shoot.

  Prior to this, I had worked with only friends and acquaintances. What struck me the most about working with Amanda was her grace, and emotive expressions.  She was a natural in front of the camera, and the shoot yielded many successful images.

Today, I still enjoy working with both amateur and professional models of all experience levels.  What I find most rewarding is establishing a meaningful collaboration, where all  contribute creatively to the project.  It is quite satisfying when this is achieved.
