A quick shoot with Circa for Into the Wild

Normally I don't try to shoot for Fauna and Into the Wild on the same trip, and when I do I shoot for Into the Wild first...it just makes sense.  But over a year ago now Circa and her partner Danielle shot with me for Fauna (2017-11-08 22:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Evelyn Devere for Pulp

I think Evelyn is technically actually the second ever shoot for Pulp, but somehow I'm only getting around to posting these images now.  At the time I still wasn't sure what Pulp should be.  I was definitely missing the years of practice I had with Temperance, honestly I think I still a...

Alice X at Mt Shasta

Mt Shasta is a location that has been defeating me for as long as I have been traveling.  Its a town, its a mountain, its a beautiful place, and for whatever reason I can't seem to have a successful shoot with that giant mountain in the background to save my life.

My first attempt was...

November

I'm digitally packing today.  Trying to get my computer files, social media and Patreon ready for my trip to Japan.  For two months I shot over our goal, and for me that was enough to get everything booked, and planned for a trip of creating abroad.

Amber, Nicole, Porcelain, Henry a...

Vaunt and Porcelain for Madam and a little bit The Jungle

Moving is change, and I think one of the biggest things that affects our work as artists is environment.  

I started The Jungle and its sort of off shoot project Madam because for years I was either in Philly or traveling to other cities where the parks we could shoot in weren't awe in...

Arctic Nude 2017 (Take one)

Where does one begin with something like this?  I don't really know.  Its weird how falling in love works.  I fell in Iceland at first from a far, more of an infatuation.  I saw it in photos in 2010 when I was contacted about assisting a couple from Philadelphia that was teach...

Nicole Vaunt, Amber Rose McConnell and AyBabyMidnight at Valley of Fire

I don't even remember when we made it down to Vegas.  I think it might have been July, but the past few months have been a whirlwind...I just checked it was August, which is some how more confusing.  Vegas was a little bit of a mix up.  Nicole thought she had to be there for work, ...

Sambalina for The Jungle

Life
When the wheels fall off I'm normally going 90.

21 hours from Marseilles to Seattle.  We wake up at 6:30 in the morning after a restless night packing, and laying on mattresses that I think you could compare to a wood floor.  I have too much anxiety to tra...

Amber Rose McConnell and Allie Summers in the worlds fastest shoot

Allie Summers came over a couple weeks ago to go out and shoot some photos in nature with me.  I don't remember the exact situation, but Amber wanted to come along, but was either heading to work, or heading to a shoot of her own, so we decided to shoot some Instax in the backyard.  I g...

How did it get to be October?

I made it.  August and September might have turned into two of the busiest months I've ever had, and October isn't really slowing down.  I don't even know how many shoots I did in August, but I know I had to start turning down shoots with people I really wanted to work with.  Then I s...

Porcelain, Almida Meyer, Amber Rose McConnell, Lillias Right at our Secret Swimming Hole

Have I told you guys that the Pacific North West is fucking magical?

We've had three months of straight sunshine in Seattle, which to most people sounds amazing, but honestly for me...not that great.  I moved here because I love clouds!  So I've sort of switched strategies for lo...

Pool side with Sambalina

Shooting out of series is fun.  It keeps me fresh, gives me new challenges, and I think makes me better at the work I normally do.  Just like teaching doing something new is basically a puzzle that needs solved.

While I was in Philly Nicole was nice enough to drive me up to Samba...

Lillias Right and London Andrews for The Jungle

London came out to Seattle last month to shoot her calendar for 2018, and we decided to sneak in a couple shoots just for fun.  Its been almost two years since we've worked together I think, so we had a lot of catching up to in terms of work, and just as friends.

Lillias came over for ...

Nicole Vaunt and Amber Rose McConnell for The Jungle

It helps to have a back up plan.

This was supposed to be a shoot for We Were Wanderers, but when Nicole, Amber, and I arrived at Eagle Falls we realized that it just wasn't going to be our day.  The weather was cold, so we had to shoot quickly, but groups of people kept coming, which i...

Rant and Freshie Juice for Temperance

I've been working like crazy behind the scenes here to get Temperance ready to be published as a book.  And its really starting to come together.  I think I should I have a preview for you all in a couple weeks of the cover, general lay out, and an idea of how I'm going to do a pre-sale to...

London Andrews for Into the Wild

I shoot so much that its amazing what can fall in the cracks of where my memory meets the internet.  Two years ago while I was still living in Philly London came down for a couple of days, so that we could plan our adventure in Iceland shooting her calendar for 2016.

Over the two days...

Nik Hampshire and Nicole Vaunt in the Wissahickon

Will this be the last time I walk these trails?  I doubt it but it could be.  I try to treat every trip we do like its the last time we will ever be in these places...even the places I have been hundreds of times.

The truth is I almost always go back, but they are never really the...

Places I never thought I'd See

I hit my goal to take Amber and Nicole to Japan to shoot for We Were Wanderers last month, and I'm really at a loss for words.  You all have given me the opportunity to create in ways that I never thought possible.  For 6 years in order to travel I slept in the front seat of the car leaned...

Evyenia and Leza Lush at Prospect Park

If there is one thing I love its find a place that feels hidden in a gigantic city.  A path that you can turn down and disappear.  In New York that is hard to come by.  Winter and Fall are great times to be in Prospect Park...you can find those moments alone there, but this spring ...

Amber Rose McConnell in the Morning Light

Some shoots don't need to be a part of a series.  We explore so many places, but we also take moments for ourselves.  I went to remember the way the light fell through the window, the day after we hiked out to the beach, the morning after we bounced around Portland strip club hopping. 2017-08-11 22:50:19 +0000 UTC View Post

Lillias Right for Pulp

Did I tell you this is going to be an amazing month to be a Patreon subscriber?  Because this is going to be a really awesome month to be a Patreon subscriber.  The past couple of months I have been shooting quite a bit...exploring a bunch of new projects, and this month I'm going to be...

Porcelain for Pulp

Hello my fantastic Patreon supporters.  I'm back in Seattle after a quick get away to the desert to shoot and scout some locations for a possible 2018 workshop!  And I'm trying to get back into the sitting in front of the computer editing thing.

My best friend 2017-08-09 02:41:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Nicole Vaunt and Amber Rose McConnell for Ask the Dust

For a long time I avoided direct sun light, but lately I've been playing around with it a little more.  Letting the late day hard light spill through the windows of our hotel room.  Having Amber and Nicole on the road with me has really allowed for me to experiment and push myself as an ar...

Pure Rebel for Pulp

I'm not known for Black and White photography,

but here I am doing it anyway.  Anytime I send off a shoot to a model I have worked with, and I don't include color photos it is with some serious trepidation.  I don't want to disappoint the people I work with, but also I think I nee...

Hey Its (mid)July

I try to do one of these public updates at the beginning of each month, but its been a whirlwind of two weeks for Nicole and I.  When we first moved out to Seattle we thought that we would be bi-coastal.  I was born in Virginia, lived in Pennsylvania for 27 years, Chicago for 6 months...I ...

Lillias Right, Mika Lovely, and Porcelain for The Jungle

Ok, so this is really mostly a set of Lillias for The Jungle.  

Things don't always go according to plan and this day we were actually all planning on shooting Wet Plates, but the ISO of collodion is 1, and it was a very gloomy day.  The first plate I shot of Lillias was a 30 second...

Reed and then the Storms Came

I think its been a year, maybe more.  I'm pretty sure its been more.  Columbus was my first time on my 4 month trip last year, and it was probably around April that we pulled up, and shot our set f...

Hailey J for Pulp

Doing something new is always a challenge.  Until I figure it out every shoot feels like a test shoot, and sometimes the series is an endless test.  As much as I love how the images for Pulp are turning out I am not really looking for consistency.  No two shoots have really been the s...

Cervena Fox for Into the Wild

Last summer I made my into the forests of Philadelphia for what would be my last trip.  We had to shoot quickly, but fortunately by now or I guess then I knew the woods like they were home where the light was good and when it would bounce off my favorite pools.

Now I'm probably back home...

We Were Wanderers in Alaska

Its been 4 or 5 years since I made my first and until now only trip to our 49th state.  But Nicole and I fell in love with Amber, and Amber loves Alaska, and well I love Alaska as well, so we decided that a trip to this magical place over the solstice would be a great opportunity to share somet...
