Looming Shadow

On a frigid morning in January, 2015, Sekaa and I got up at 5AM on about four hours sleep to drive 1.5 hours to Big Talbot Island for a sunrise shoot. We were exhausted from many long days of travel and shooting. We pulled into a dingy gas station for a restroom break. There, we regrouped, bought...

Remembering how cold this shoot was inspires me to have a swim in the ocean before work. It's a beautiful summer day here in Jersey. Hope you are enjoying your Tuesday!

Hi friends. I turned 28 years old today. I posted this on my personal Facebook, but thought I'd share with you, because this is where I'm at.

Here's what 28 looks like:

A few days ago, I was sitting alone at my kitchen table binge-eating a disgusting amount of ice cream... in secret, ...

Hey.

I've been a little quiet here the last two weeks. I just thought I'd share with you what this month has looked like for me. 

Growing up on the Jersey Shore, coming home from tour for summer time has always been very nostalgic. Returning home this time has been a very surreal experience...

Stairwell

The lady in the stairwell

She speaks to me in rhyme,

I climbed each step towards her

Alas, she's lost elsewhere in time


She's drawn about the mirror 

The glass exposes her affairs,

Shining fixtures draw me nearer

To soft locks spilling dow...

Eva Luna dubbed me "Sweet Golden Baby Angel."

If you know anything about Eva and me, you know that if we aren't laughing or speaking in accents with heaps of sarcasm, we are extolling one another... maybe excessively.

Eva introduced me to Ben Taylor, in Portland.

Behind the scenes of my time in Utah outside of TDA. 

I spent a lot of days hiking, scouting and spending time with my partner John and Jake, the dog. We were living out of John's sprinter while he waited for his house to become available.

The first few days, Jake and I did a lot...

Just in case you thought we take ourselves seriously... 

I took most of these images myself, so they are mostly of our participants and Eva, who is the absolute most fun human I have had the pleasure of posing with.

P.S.

I've been a little lost on Patreon this year. Between my grandfather dying, my Tumblr account vanishing without a trace, and my current transition into the next life chapter, I have been unsure as to what kind of experience I want to design for you all going forward.

Anyway, I decided to post a b&w series of strong poses tonight as a tribute to that.
