At the Waterfall

I hope you guys don't mind me sharing my own photography!  Here's a set I took of Tatiana earlier this year.  I hope to continue to practice and improve my photography.  

On a personal note, like many others, there is currently a lot of job uncertainty right now, so I'm very ...

Marin

Here are some photos from a set we did driving up and around Marin.  I think some of our best shoots have involved driving around, and just hopping out when we find a cool place.  

On a separate note, like many people, I'm off from work for a bit due to the spread of Coronavirus. ...

Fall Winery

Here's a little throwback from 2018.  

We went wine tasting on a cold and rainy day, and it seemed like an opportune time to sneak into the vines for a few quick photos.  I loved the color of the leaves in these.   I just wish we could have stayed longer, but we kind of ...

Window

Happy March!

I recently went on a mini-trip to Vegas, and it was, unfortunately, extremely rainy.  So instead of venturing outdoors, I made sure to get some photos in my hotel since it had such a beautiful window.  I even added a little blurry night shot for fun (I couldn't get it...

Quick Hello

Hi all!  

I just wanted to give everyone a quick reminder that my Patreon will resume on March 1st.  The time off from modeling/posting gave me some much needed time to catch up with my regular work, and I even got to save some draft posts that I will be posting during the month. ...

Mossy Stream

Here's a little mini-post.  We found that even on a cold Monday morning, the hiking trails were as busy as ever, and had a hard time finding secluded places to shoot.  And the places we did find had some rather unfriendly speckled light like in these photos.  But it never hurts to ...

Tubs (Digital) and Page Update

Here are a few more from my hot tub afternoon.  These are the digital photos...A little different, but I love the theme of water and nudes, so I like these :)

On a separate note, next month is my birthday, and I am treating myself to a month to catch up with my regular work...so I will...

Waterfall Stream

Here's a mini-post of a stream from a waterfall.  There were a LOT of hikers, so this was one of those one-minute locations, but it was still nice to get a couple shots in :)  

Happy Monday!

Foggy Morning

This was taken the morning before NYE.  It was chilly, but not windy at all, and we came across some pretty nice fog sitting above the lake.  The fog was lifting really quickly, so we had to be super quick to shoot this, but I just loved the combination of calm water and foggy trees. &n...

Gualala

During my recent Bay Area trip, we made a return trip to Gualala.  Unfortunately, the water was a lot more full and active, and didn't make for good shooting, so we wandered around the moss and trees nearby.  Most of these photos were also taken with that twist lens, which can give that...

Hot Tub

Happy 2020!   

I got a chance to play around with a waterproof camera while I was at the tubs on Monday, and here are the results.  The camera, unfortunately, only takes pretty low quality photos, but I still had fun taking them.  Nothing particularly fancy or artsy here...

Waves Preview

Here are the first few photos from my waves set!  The waves looked much more exciting in person, but it was still a fun location.  

Happy-Almost-New-Year!

Waves

Happy end-of-December! 

Here's the BTS video I uploaded a clip of to my IG (I wanted to put it on here, too, since the IG quality is so awful).  We had decided on a pose we wanted to capture, and so we were waiting for various waves to crash in the background.  And, I don't k...

Hotel Room

Throwback!  

I'm not shooting at the moment, so here's a set from a shoot during my short hair days.  Look how skinny I am!  But I love the mood of these photos, so I wanted to share them.  

I'll be heading up to the Bay for the last week of December, so expect som...

Random selfies over the years

Hi all! Happy holiday time!  

I'm looking forward to taking a road trip back up to the Bay Area at the end of the month.  In the meantime, work is keeping me sufficiently busy.  I hope everyone is getting to enjoy some vacation time soon :)

I had another post planned fo...

Pasadena

Here is a set from a little apartment in Pasadena.  This is when I was first getting back into modeling after a long hiatus and a move to Los Angeles.  I don't like to do too many indoor shoots (just my personal preference), but I was itching to create. This particular shoot was memorab...

Beach Set

Here is my last Thanksgiving week set.  We were on our way back from shooting at Drakes Estero, and decided to check out the beach.  There were some awesome waves/tides going on, so we decided to do a quick shoot.  It was quite chilly with the wind, but well worth it :)

I don...

Bungalow

Here is a photoset from Thanksgiving week!  I shot with @ohaiitsmike and we did some shots in a little airbnb with some nice window light.  Even though the space was small, we made good use of the angles and shadows :)

Now, wish me luck as I get through work these next couple week...

Book

Hi all!  

If anyone likes collections, Impressionoflight and I made a little book!  https://www.blurb.com/b/9802798-adventures-with-ck 

It's kind of pricey, but there's an ebook f...

Snowy Afternoon

Happy December!

On Black Friday, we managed to make our way up Tahoe National Forest and take some photos during a snow storm.  Unfortunately, we didn't get too many photos...we got stuck behind an accident on the highway, and the storm kept picking up with the threat of road closure. ...

Drakes Bay

Hi all!  I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving.  I have a few little sets to upload from this week, but, to start, here are a few photos taken at Drakes Estero in Point Reyes.  We were lucky to catch a break in the weather and get some nice sun for these shots, as I really lo...

Los Angeles

I don't often shoot in LA, even though I live down here, because of my normal job (it tends to take over my life a bit).  If I have time off from work, I try to get out of town.  But I was very lucky that I got to shoot with pateriq when he came up here, so I made sure to make the time ...

Red

Here are a few photos from my Nevada shoot earlier this month.  Anticipate some more images later... as you can see, the rocks in this location were quite colorful and climbable.  I'm looking forward to seeing some of the wider shots later :)

One More

Since I can post one at a time, here's one more video from our drone shoots.  Just a little foot dip here.  

Dune Sunrise

Here's a shorter clip from the dunes :)

Hoping to play around more with drones in the future!

Test

Hi all! 

I'm testing out ways I can share videos on here.  For some reason, it doesn't seem to be as easy as it should be.  If this doesn't work, please let me know so I can keep experimenting :)

Joshua Tree Trip

Here are some photos from my trip to Joshua Tree and nearby.  I tried to post them in the order that we took them.  We made sure to get plenty of butt shots at the time because of ~instagram~.  

Overall, Joshua Tree isn't my favorite place to hike around (too many other hiker...

Shadows

Hi all!  

Just arrived back into town and in desperate need of some gym and relaxing time.  But here's a little teaser from Vegas (photo by John Patton).  Hope everyone had a great weekend :)

Print Question

Anybody interested in a print of one of my photos if I were to do a perk or giveaway?  If so, what size?  

I've been really loving seeing my photos in print, so I thought I'd check.  

Film Scans Mini-Post

And one more throwback before I head off to Vegas.  Here are a few film scans from an older apartment of mine.  Taken by Eric Hiss.  (Some of the scans are just from a contact sheet, so they're tiny, but I think they're still fun to look at).
